Abstract
Method and system for a data transfer operation to a device memory is provided. The method includes setting a counter to an initial value; detecting the data transfer operation; determining if information is written to a first memory location of the device memory; counting in a first direction when a total transfer size (N) is written to the first memory location of the device memory; and counting in a second direction when data is written in memory locations other than the first memory location of the device memory, wherein the data transfer operation is complete when a counter value transitions from a non-initial value to an initial value.
