Interconnect address based qos regulation

An integrated circuit, comprising:

• a completer device;
• a requester device configured to generate transactions to the completer device, each transaction comprising a request packet including an attribute associated with the completer device;
• an interconnect fabric coupled to the requester device and the completer device;
• and
• a QoS regulator configured to:
• identify, based on a first attribute associated with the completer device, a first QoS value establishing a first priority level for a first request packet generated by the requester device;
• and
• modify the first request packet to include the first QoS value.

A method, comprising

• receiving, by a QoS regulator of an integrated circuit, a first request packet including a first attribute associated with a first completer device;
• extracting the first attribute from the first request packet;
• identifying a first QoS value based on the first attribute, the first QoS value establishing a first priority level for the first request packet based on the first attribute associated with the first completer device;
• modifying the first request packet to include the first QoS value;
• and
• outputting the first request packet including the first QoS value to an interconnect fabric such that the interconnect fabric transfers the first request packet according to the first priority level.
