Claim 10:
11. A method for operating a configurable hardware platform comprising a configuration access port, a reconfigurable logic region, and host logic that encapsulates the reconfigurable logic region, the method comprising:
communicating, by the host logic, with a processor using a host interface of the host logic;
providing, by a management function of the host logic, access to application logic at the configuration access port; and
causing, by the management function of the host logic, the reconfigurable logic region to be configured with the application logic, wherein the reconfigurable logic region comprises hardware that is configurable to implement the application logic;
wherein the host logic further comprises a data path function accessible via the host interface, the data path function configured to format data transfers between the host interface and the application logic, the data path function being separate from the management function.
