ABSTRACT:
A dynamic pipeline depth control method and apparatus is used with a bus which supports pipelined bus transactions. An agent coupled to the bus includes both a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter is used to transmit an indication to the other agents coupled to the bus which prevents the other agents from issuing a transaction on the bus. The receiver is used to receive the indication, from another agent, that prevents the agent from issuing a transaction on the bus.
