Abstract
The present disclosure advantageously provides a system and method for protocol layer tunneling for a data processing system. A system includes an interconnect, a request node coupled to the interconnect, and a home node coupled to the interconnect. The request node includes a request node processor, and the home node includes a home node processor. The request node processor is configured to send, to the home node, a sequence of dynamic requests, receive a sequence of retry requests associated with the sequence of dynamic requests, and send a sequence of static requests associated with the sequence of dynamic requests in response to receiving credit grants from the home node. The home node processor is configured to send the sequence of retry requests in response to receiving the sequence of dynamic requests, determine the credit grants, and send the credit grants.
