Abstract
Receiving data at a first device transferred from a second device includes: storing a starting address with respect to a memory address space for a memory of the first device in a storage location within the first device. A request is received at the first device to transfer one or more data values from the second device, the request including a target address with respect to a communication channel address space for a communication channel between the first device and the second device. The second device determines whether the target address corresponds to a reserved address value designated as an indicator of a transfer to a memory address beyond the communication channel address space. The one or more data values are transferred from the second device to the first device according to the stored starting address if the target address does correspond to the reserved address value, or the one or more data values are transferred from the second device to the first device according to the target address if the target address does not correspond to the reserved address value.
