Abstract
Embodiments include a method for bypassing data in an active memory device. The method includes a requestor determining a number of transfers to a grantor that have not been communicated to the grantor, requesting to the interconnect network that the bypass path be used for the transfers based on the number of transfers meeting a threshold and communicating the transfers via the bypass path to the grantor based on the request, the interconnect network granting control of the grantor in response to the request. The method also includes the interconnect network requesting control of the grantor based on an event and communicating delayed transfers via the interconnect network from other requestors, the delayed transfers being delayed due to the grantor being previously controlled by the requestor, the communicating based on the control of the grantor being changed back to the interconnect network.
