Abstract
Under some conditions, requests transmitted between different devices in a computing system may be blocked in a way that prevents the request from being processed, resulting in a deadlock condition. A skid buffer is used to allow additional requests to be queued in order to remove the blockage and end the deadlock condition. Once the deadlock condition is removed, the requests are processed and the additional buffer entries in the skid buffer are disabled.
