Abstract
A system for interfacing with a co-processor or input/output device is disclosed. According to one embodiment, the system is configured to receive a command from a host memory controller of a host system and store the command in a command buffer entry. The system determines that the command is complete using a buffer check logic and provides the command to a command buffer. The command buffer comprises a first field that specifies an entry point of the command within the command buffer entry.
