ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for providing peer-to-peer data transfer through an interconnecting fabric. The method and apparatus enable a first device to read and/or write data to/from a local memory of a second device by communicating read and write requests across the interconnectivity fabric. Such data transfer can be performed even when the communication protocol of the interconnectivity fabric does not permit such transfers.
