Channel

This field indicates the active PCI channel at the time of the failure.

20

L/D

List not data: If this bit is set to 1, a PCI list operation was in progress at the time of the

 

 

failure. If this bit is set to 0, a PCI data transfer operation was in progress at the time

 

 

of the failure.

19

R/T

Receive not transmit: If this bit is set to 1, a PCI receive channel operation was in prog-

 

 

ress at the time of the failure. If this bit is set to 0, a PCI transmit channel operation was

 

 

in progress at the time of the failure.

18

R/W

Read not write: If this bit is set to 1, a PCI read operation was in progress at the time

 

 

of the failure. If this bit is set to 0, a PCI write operation was in progress at the time of

 

 

the failure.

 

 

This bit can be used to differentiate between list reads and CSTAT field writes, which

 

 

are both list operations.

7±0
