ABSTRACT:
A data processing system in the form of an integrated circuit includes a general purpose programmable processor and a hardware accelerator. A shared memory management unit provides memory management operations on behalf of both of the processor core and the hardware accelerator. The processor and the hardware accelerator share a memory system. A first communication channel between the processor and the hardware accelerator communicates at least control signals therebetween. A second communication channel coupling the hardware accelerator and the memory system allows the hardware accelerator to perform its own data access operations upon the memory system.
