Abstract
A processor is connected to a configurable system interconnect (CSI) bus. A CSL is connected to the CSI bus. The CSL comprises a first set of signal lines to send a data transfer request and a second set of signal lines to receive a grant associated with the data transfer request. A bus master unit (BMU) is coupled with the CSL through the first set of signal lines and the second set of signal lines. The BMU is connected to the CSI bus. The BMU arbitrates to take control of the CSI bus on behalf of the CSL enabling the CSL to perform data transfer to or from the CSI bus bypassing the processor.
