Abstract

Disclosed is a system for communication among a device, a first processor, and a second processor. One of a first data path and second data path is configured. The first data path comprises a bus, such as a local PCI bus, a first remote bridge, and a first local bridge. The bridges may be comprised of PCI to PCI bridges. After configuring the first data path, the device communicates to the first processor by communicating data through the bus to the first remote bridge. The first remote bridge transmits the data to the first local bridge and the first local bridge transmits the data to the first processor. The second data path comprises the bus, a second remote bridge, and a second local bridge. After configuring the second data path, the device communicates to the second processor by communicating data through the bus to the second remote bridge. The second remote bridge transmits the data to the second local bridge and the second local bridge transmits the data to the second processor.
