...out_buf_ptr.
Data arriving from a remote write transaction will set its own destination address.

...specifications.
If no better use is found for the 80960Cx's on-chip SRAM, this table could reside there and be very cheap to reference.

...operation.
Writing to an operation address during an operation will always cause it to abort. If one writes the initiate function, then an error is flagged to the processor since it is not possible to initiate another transaction while one is already in progress. If one writes abort, then the router quietly returns to an idle state.

...dummy-cycles.
see (tn25) for a description of dummy cycles.
