ABSTRACT:
A method for reissuing a command initiated by a master device to a slave device, where the slave device fails to process the command within a predetermined interval. The slave stores the command, including a master identifier used to identify the master device that initiated the command, at the slave device. The slave device arbitrates for control of the command bus when it becomes available to process the command. Upon receiving control of the bus, the slave device drives the stored command, including the master identifier, onto the command bus. It appears to the system that the master device reissued the command.
