Abstract

Routing circuitryis provided for routing transaction requests to a selected destination node. The routing circuitry supports read requests requiring a read response, write requests requiring a write response and at least one type of atomic data access request requiring both a read response and a write response. Request regulatorsare provided to monitor resource usage for read, atomic and write requests, and issue circuitrycontrols the issuing of a transaction request received from a requesting node, in dependence on resource usage monitoring performed by the request regulators. The issue circuitry controls the issuing of atomic requests in dependence on the resource usage monitored by the write request regulator and the resource usage monitored by the atomic request regulator.
