Data path master/slave data processing device

A data path system having a crossbar switch and a data processor device employed for data processing in a computer system, the data processor device comprising:

• a data processing master;
• a data processing core;
• and
• a data processing slave;
• wherein the data processing master is functionally coupled to an input of the crossbar switch, and the data processing slave is functionally coupled to a single way of the same crossbar switch;
• and
• wherein the data processing slave is employable to capture data to be processed, the captured data then written by the system master.

A data path system having a crossbar switch, a system master, a memory slave and a data processor, the data processor employable for data processing in a computer system, the data processor comprising:

• a data processing master;
• a data processing core;
• and
• a data processing slave;
• wherein the data processing master is functionally coupled to an input of the crossbar switch, and the data processing slave is functionally coupled to a single way of the same crossbar switch;
• wherein the data processing slave is employable to receive a read request from the system master;
• and
• wherein the data processing slave is further employable to notify the data processing master to read the requested data from the memory slave.
