Abstract
An information handling system transfers command blocks between a host processing side having a host processing unit and a host memory and a local processing side having a local processing unit and a local memory. The command blocks are transferred from the host processing side to the local processing side by storing the host address of the command block in a local side register set. Upon storing the host address a transfer signal is given to a command block transfer controller to start a command block transfer without the local processor unit intervention.
