Reconfigurable fabric direct memory access with multiple read or write elements

A computer program product embodied in a non-transitory computer readable medium for data manipulation comprising code which causes one or more processors to perform operations of:

• obtaining data from a first switching element within a plurality of switching elements wherein the first switching element is controlled by a first circular buffer;
• and
• sending the data to a second switching element within the plurality of switching elements wherein the second switching element is controlled by a second circular buffer,
• wherein a third switching element within the plurality of switching elements hierarchically controls the first switching element and the second switching element to perform a direct memory access (DMA) transfer.

A computer system for data manipulation comprising:

• a memory which stores instructions;
• one or more processors attached to the memory wherein the one or more processors, when executing the instructions which are stored, are configured to:
• obtain data from a first switching element within a plurality of switching elements wherein the first switching element is controlled by a first circular buffer;
• and
• send the data to a second switching element within the plurality of switching elements wherein the second switching element is controlled by a second circular buffer,
• wherein a third switching element within the plurality of switching elements hierarchically controls the first switching element and the second switching element to perform a direct memory access (DMA) transfer.
