= !VciLocalCrossbar Functional Description =

This hardware component is a generic VCI crossbar, it contains two
independant crossbars for VCI commands and VCI responses.

When several initiators try to reach the same target, the arbitration
policy is round-robin.
It gives the system designer a generic "communication black-box" with
a parametrized number of VCI initiator ports (NB_INITIATOR), 
and a parameterized number of VCI target ports (NB_TARGET). 

As any VCI advanced compliant interconnect, this component uses
the MSB bits of the VCI ADDRESS field to route the command packets
to the proper target, thanks to a routing table, implemented as a ROM.
This routing table is build by the constructor from the informations stored in
the [wiki:Component/MappingTable mapping table].
It uses the VCI RSRCID field to route the response packet to the initiator.
