Abstract

A data processing apparatus is provided, that includes communication configured for receiving, from an origin Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) device, a translated PCIe packet comprising a destination field that comprises a physical address of a destination PCIe device. Permission circuitry transmits a permission check packet, separate to the translated PCIe packet, to a root port to determine whether the origin PCIe device has permission to access the destination PCIe device. Buffer circuitry stores the translated PCIe packet until a response to the permission check packet is received.
