  • Patent number: 10936532
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a first device, a second device, and a storage area shared by the first device and the second device when performing mailbox communication between the first device and the second device. When transmitting first data from the first device to the second device via the mailbox communication, the first device stores first data in the storage area. The second device, which has stored therein an identifier of a device permitted to transmit data to the second device via the mailbox communication, obtains an identifier of the first device, and compares the obtained identifier to the identifier stored in the second device to determine whether acquisition of the first data from the storage area is permitted. When the acquisition of the first data from the storage area is determined to be permitted, the second device reads the first data from the storage area.
