1. An integrated circuit comprising:
a memory array;
a first port adapted to read data associated with the first port from the memory array and to write data associated with the first port to the memory array; and
a second port adapted to read data associated with the second port from the memory array and to write data associated with the second port to the memory array,
wherein the first port is further adapted to write data associated with the second port through the first port to the memory array.
