US Patent 11003612 Processor/endpoint connection configuration system

A processing subsystem/endpoint subsystem connection configuration system includes a plurality of processing subsystems and a multi-endpoint adapter device that provides a plurality of endpoint subsystems. A bus exchange switch device couples the plurality of processing subsystems to the plurality of endpoint subsystems, and a connection configuration engine is coupled to the multi-endpoint adapter device and the bus exchange switch device. The connection configuration engine receives a connection resource request that requests connection resources for a first processing subsystem that is included in the plurality of processing subsystems. Based on the connection resource request, the connection configuration engine causes at least one of the plurality of endpoint subsystems to perform a first connection resource change operation. The connection configuration engine then configures the bus exchange switch device to provide the connection resources for the first processing subsystem.
