Abstract
Methods and structure for transferring additional parameters through a communication interface with limited parameter passing features. Features and aspects hereof provide for generating and transmitting multiple related commands from an initiator device to a target device where one or more initial commands provide additional parameters. The additional parameters are utilized in processing the last of the multiple commands to actually perform a desired data transfer. The initial commands and the data transfer command may all be associated by encoding of a common tag or sub-tag value in each command. The initial commands may be read/write commands having a zero data transfer length. The associated data transfer command may be a read/write command having a non-zero data transfer length. The initial commands each provide one or more additional parameters for processing the data transfer command in addition to the standard parameters that may be encoded in the data transfer command.
