ABSTRACT:
A buffer control method for controlling packets to be stored in a buffer having a data region and a command queue region. First, the number of the packets that can be stored in the data buffer is determined. Then, a count value representing the remained capacity of the data region is updated. Finally, the count value and a value of maximum data length are compared to determine whether to increase the number of the packets that can be stored in the buffer.
