Bus control system and semiconductor integrated circuit
A bus control circuit includes a first bus to which a first circuit is connected, a second bus to which a second circuit is connected and a control circuit that transfers data between the first circuit and the second circuit, wherein the control circuit monitors completion of the processing of an access request that is resident in the control circuit.
1. A bus control system comprising:
a first bus to which a first circuit is connected;
a second bus to which a second circuit is connected;
a control circuit configured to transfer data between the first circuit and the second circuit, wherein the control circuit includes:
a control unit configured to be controlled by a control register and accept an access request for the control circuit; and
a command control unit configured to monitor the access accepted by the control unit,
wherein the control register is reset based on an output of the command control unit and an output of the control register.
2. The bus control system according to claim 1 , wherein the control circuit is configured to monitor completion of processing of an access request that is resident in the control circuit.
3. The bus control system according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a memory configured to hold the access request from the control unit,
wherein
an acceptance of a new access request is resumed automatically by resetting the control register.
4. The bus control system according to claim 3 , wherein the control unit terminates acceptance of a new access request when an access request is resident in the control circuit.
5. The bus control system according to claim 3 , wherein the control unit terminates acceptance of a new access request when a writing access request is resident in the control circuit.
6. The bus control system according to claim 2 , wherein the control unit controls an addition of a flag to a new access request for the control circuit.
7. The bus control system according to claim 6 , wherein the control unit sets a flag to an access request being accepted at the time the control register is set or to an access request that is accepted last among access requests that have already been accepted, and monitors completion of processing of the access request with the flag.
8. The bus control system according to claim 6 , wherein the control unit sets flags to all access requests that are resident at the time the control register is set, and monitors completion of processing of the access requests with the flags.
9. The bus control system according to claim 6 , wherein the control unit sets a flag to an access request being accepted at the time the control register is set or to a first access request that is newly accepted, and monitors completion of processing of the access request with the flag.
10. The bus control system according to claim 7 , wherein an access request to which the flag is set is limited to a writing access request, and completion of processing of the access request with the flag is monitored.
11. The bus control system according to claim 8 , wherein an access request to which the flag is set is limited to a writing access request, and completion of processing of the access request with the flag is monitored.
12. The bus control system according to claim 1 , wherein the control circuit is a bus bridge circuit connected to the first bus and the second bus.
13. A semiconductor integrated circuit comprising:
a first bus to which a first circuit is connected;
a second bus to which a second circuit is connected; and
a control circuit configured to transfer data between the first circuit and the second circuit,
wherein the control circuit includes:
a control unit configured to be controlled by a control register and accept an access request for the control circuit; and
a command control unit configured to monitor the access accepted by the control unit, and
wherein the control register is reset based on an output of the command control unit and an output of the control register.
14. The semiconductor integrated circuit according to claim 13 , wherein the control circuit monitors completion of processing of an access request that is resident in the control circuit.
15. The semiconductor integrated circuit according to claim 13 , wherein the control circuit is a bus bridge circuit connected to the first bus and the second bus.
