Abstract
A storage controller includes a command manager and a direct memory access (DMA) engine. The command manager receives a first submission queue doorbell from an external device, fetches a first command including a first latency from the external device in response to the first submission queue doorbell, and determines a first timing to write a first completion into the external device based on the first latency, the first completion indicating that the first command is completely processed. The DMA engine receives a request signal requesting processing of the first command from the command manager, transfer data, which the first command requests, based on a DMA transfer in response to the request signal, and outputs a complete signal, which indicates that the first command is completely processed, to the command manager.
