Abstract
A shared resource within a module may be accessed by a request from an external requester. An external transaction request may be received from an external requester outside the module for access to the shared resource that includes control information, not all of which is needed to access the shared resource. The external transaction request may be modified to form a modified request by removing a portion of the locally unneeded control information and storing the unneeded portion of control information as an entry in a bypass buffer. A reply received from the shared resource may be modified by appending the stored portion of control information from the entry in the bypass buffer before sending the modified reply to the external requester.
