UNIFIED ADDRESS SPACE FOR MULTIPLE HARDWARE ACCELERATORS USING DEDICATED LOW LATENCY LINKS

摘要

A system may include a host processor coupled to a communication bus, a first hardware accelerator communicatively linked to the host processor through the communication bus, and a second hardware accelerator communicatively linked to the host processor through the communication bus. The first hardware accelerator and the second hardware accelerator are directly coupled through an accelerator link independent of the communication bus. The host processor is configured to initiate a data transfer between the first hardware accelerator and the second hardware accelerator directly through the accelerator link.
