Abstract:
In one embodiment, the present invention includes method for entering a credit initialization state of an agent state machine of an agent coupled to a fabric to initialize credits in a transaction credit tracker of the fabric. This tracker tracks credits for transaction queues of a first channel of the agent for a given transaction type. The agent may then assert a credit initialization signal to cause credits to be stored in the transaction credit tracker corresponding to the number of the transaction queues of the first channel of the agent for the first transaction type. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
