Efficient Direct-Access Buffer Management In A Data Communication

The embodiments of the present disclosure are generally directed to zero-duplicate direct-memory-access data buffer management in a data communication interface and are particularly directed to an efficient and collaborative buffer management for data transmission and synchronization between a plurality of data sources (data producers) and a data destination (data consumers) via the data communication interface. In one example, the disclosed buffer management approach combines zero-duplicate buffers, priority-based buffer allocation, priority-based data synchronization, and a collaborative communicated buffer holding time to manage the direct-memory-access and release of buffered data in a real-time and continuous dataflow producer-consumer system.
