Abstract
A multi-processor system comprises a sending processor adapted to send a data message, a receiving processor adapted to receive the date message, and a memory unit associated with the receiving processor. The multi-processor system has a size-index table associated with the sending processor, and the sending processor is adapted to map a size of a payload portion of the data message to an index of the size-index table, and to send the data message containing the size, the index and the payload portion to the receiving processor. The multi-processor system also has mapping circuitry associated with the receiving processor. The mapping circuitry is adapted to the map the index contained in the data message received from the sending processor to a pointer, wherein the pointer is associated with a buffer of the memory unit. The receiving processor is adapted to write the payload portion of the received data message to the buffer as indicated by the pointer. A receiving processor adapted to be comprised in a multi-processor system, an electronic apparatus comprising a multi-processor system and/or a receiving processor are also described as well as a method of receiving a data message at a processor.
