Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatuses are disclosed herein for identifying a topology of a MoChi system prior to a boot-up of an operating system. A master SoC may detect, prior to boot-up of an operating system that uses the master SoC, an initialization command, and may, in response to detecting the initialization command, assign a first chip identifier to the master SoC. The master SoC may transmit a discovery communication from the master SoC to a slave SoC that is one hop away from the master SoC. The slave SoC may determine whether the slave SoC is a last hop SoC, and, in response to determining that the slave SoC is a last hop SoC, the slave SoC may transmit a reply communication to the master SoC. The master SoC may then assign, based on the reply communication, a second chip identifier to the slave SoC.
