Abstract
Apparatuses and methods are disclosed for performing data processing operations in main processing circuitry and delegating certain tasks to auxiliary processing circuitry. User-specified instructions executed by the main processing circuitry comprise a task dispatch specification specifying an indication of the auxiliary processing circuitry and multiple data words defining a delegated task comprising at least one virtual address indicator. In response to the task dispatch specification the main processing circuitry performs virtual-to-physical address translation with respect to the at least one virtual address indicator to derive at least one physical address indicator, and issues a task dispatch memory write transaction to the auxiliary processing circuitry comprises the indication of the auxiliary processing circuitry and the multiple data words, wherein the at least one virtual address indicator in the multiple data words is substituted by the at least one physical address indicator.
