Write gathering circuitry of a data processing network is configured to receive data streams of cracked writes transmitted across an interconnect. Each data stream is associated with a stream identifier. The write gathering circuitry includes write gathering buffers configured to gather cracked writes from the interconnect in accordance with a stream identifier until the last write of a stream is gathered, the write gathering buffer fills, or the write gathering buffer is evicted for re-use. The gathered writes are transmitted in a gathered write burst via an external interface to the target endpoint of the data processing network. When the write gathering buffer that was allocated to the stream identifier is full, a new write gathering buffer is allocated to the stream identifier, and the new write gathering buffer is marked as a child write gathering buffer of the filled write gathering buffer.
A method of gathering writes in a data processing network, comprising:
A write gather circuitry for a data processing network comprising:
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-readable code for fabrication of a write gather circuitry of data processing network, where the write gather circuitry is configured to receive cracked writes transmitted across an interconnect of the data processing network from one or more data streams, each data stream associated with a stream identifier, where a write gathering buffer of one or more write gathering buffers of the write gather circuitry is configured to:
