Abstract: Method and related apparatus for internal data accessing of a computer system. In a computer system, a peripheral can issue accessing requests for system memory space with or without snooping the central processing unit (CPU). While serving a peripheral of single virtual channel utilizing a chipset supporting multiple virtual channels, the present invention assigns accessing requests to different processing queues according to their snooping/non-snooping attributes, such that reading/non-snooping requests are directly routed to a system memory. Also responses from system memory and CPU are buffered in the chipset respectively by utilizing buffer resources of different virtual channels. And by applying accessing routing dispatch, data accessing efficiency can be increased.

Abstract: A method and related apparatus used for controlling a peripheral device to transfer data to a bus. The peripheral device has a bus interface circuit and a controller. The method includes storing data outputted from the controller into a first storage block of the bus interface circuit, utilizing the bus interface circuit to simultaneously control the first storage block to output its stored data to the bus and control a second storage block of the bus interface circuit to store data outputted from the controller, and utilizing the bus interface circuit to control the second storage block to output its stored data to the bus.

Abstract: A data-transmission control method is disclosed. The method is adapted to be used in a system including a master device, an adapter device, a controlled device, a first bus communicating the master device with the adapter device, a second bus communicating the controlled device with the adapter device, and a data buffer associated with the adapter device. A first and a second data-reading requests are asserted via the second bus by the adapter device in response to a reading transaction actuated via the first bus by the master device. The first and the second data-reading requests have therebetween a time interval that is greater than zero but less than a latency period indicating when the adapter device asserts the first data-reading request to the controlled device and then receives a required first data to have the first bus ready. The first data is stored into the data buffer via the second bus by the controlled device in response to the first data-reading request.
