Memory Interface

The Rogue Memory Interface provides a mechanism for interfacing with hardware register space, providing mechanisms for reading and writing these memory spaces while keeping a local mirror of the current register sets. Address spaces can be created organically by linking multiple memory masters to memory hubs, with the eventual connection to a memory slave which serves as the interface to the hardware device.

Each memory access is associated with a transaction object which is used to describe and track all in progress memory accesses. Transactions are then forwarded through the layers of the memory bus, with the address being adjusted appropriately based upon its connection at a Hub. The Hub may forward the transaction onward, but also has the ability to conver the single transaction into multiple downstream transactions, providing a mechanism for handling complex memory space.
