  • Independently configurable access device stages for processing interconnect access requests
    Patent number: 11546336
    Abstract: Access control lookups may be implemented that support user-configurable and host-configurable processing stages. A request may be received and evaluated to determine whether bypass of user-configured access request processing stages should be bypassed. A lookup may be determined for user-configured access controlled decisions, and the access control decisions can be applied, if not bypassed. A lookup may be determined for a host-configured access control decisions and the access control decisions applied.

  • Independently configurable interleaving for interconnect access requests
    Patent number: 11467983
    Abstract: Access control request parameter interleaving may be implemented that supports user-configurable and host-configurable processing stages. A request may be received and evaluated to determine whether user-configured interleaving, host-configured interleaving, or both user-interleaving and host-interleaving are applied. For applied interleaving, two different portions of a request parameter may be swapped.

  • Alternative interrupt reporting channels for microcontroller access devices
    Patent number: 11392406
    Abstract: Alternative reporting channels are implemented for interrupts to a microcontroller device. An access device for a microcontroller may support performing requests from a microcontroller to controlled devices via an interconnect. The access device may have a separate communication channel with at least one of the controlled devices to receive interrupts. When an interrupt is signaled, an indication of the interrupt may be stored at a storage device at the access device. The microcontroller may read from the storage device at the access device to obtain the indication of the interrupt.

  • Independently configurable remapping for interconnect access requests
    Patent number: 11175839
    Abstract: Access control request parameter remapping may be implemented that supports user-configurable and host-configurable processing stages. A request may be received and evaluated to determine user-configured remapping is applied, host-configured remapping is applied or both user and host remapping applied. For applied remapping, an unmasked portion of a parameter of the access request may be replaced with a corresponding portion of a remap parameter.
