Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure include techniques for moving data between electronic system components using buffers. A digital processor stores data generated in response to a series of commands in a first buffer. Commands are received with a reference to a second buffer. The digital processor tracks the last location that a data result was stored in the first buffer. When a data result fills the buffer, the remaining data is automatically stored in the second buffer. Downstream devices may empty full buffers. A client may receive an indication that a buffer is empty and subsequently send commands with a reference to empty buffer.
