Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided in which a host device and a peripheral device are adapted to perform efficient data transfers. The host receives one or more bytes in a memory transfer from the peripheral device, and determines an operation for modifying the memory transfer without reading the one or more bytes. Rather, the modification may be performed based on information in a header accompanying the transferred bytes. The host device modifies the memory transfer based on the determination, and writes the modified memory transfer to memory.
