Abstract

Machine-readable media, methods, and apparatus are described to burst write a command and its arguments to control registers of a device and to burst read status and outputs of the command from control registers of the device. During the burst write, the arguments may be transferred to the device in a reverse order in which the last argument is transferred first and the first argument is transferred last. Further, the command may be transferred after the arguments.
