More Information
Summary:A work accelerator is connected to a gateway. The gateway enables the transfer of data to the work accelerator from an external storage at pre-compiled data synchronisation points attained by the work accelerator. The work accelerator is configured to send to a register of the gateway an indication of a sync group comprising the gateway. The work accelerator then sends to the gateway, a synchronisation request for a synchronisation to be performed at an upcoming pre-compiled data exchange synchronisation point. The sync propagation circuits are each configured to receive at least one synchronisation request and propagate or acknowledge the synchronisation request in dependence upon the indication of the sync group received from the work accelerator.
