Selective transaction request processing at an interconnect during a lockout

A method includes receiving, at an interconnect, a first transaction request from a first requesting module. The first transaction request includes a request to utilize at least one system resource accessible via the interconnect. The method further includes determining potential interferences at the interconnect expected to occur as a result of a utilization of the at least one system resource by the first requesting module and initiating processing of the first transaction request at the interconnect. The method additionally includes authorizing processing of a second transaction request from a second requesting module during the processing of the first transaction request based on the determined potential interferences.
