The Group B tests verify all of the memory

 

 

B7

TAS Header Buffer

blocks of the Broadcom NetXtreme II adapter

B8

TAS Payload Buffer

by writing various data patterns (0x55aa55aa,

0xaa55aa55, walking zeroes, walking ones,

 

 

B9

RBUF via GRC

address, etc.) to each memory location,

 

 

reading back the data, and then comparing it

B10

RBUF via Indirect

to the value written. The fixed data patterns

 

Access

 

are used to ensure that no memory bit is stuck

 

 

B11

RBUF Cluster List

high or low, while the walking zeroes/ones

 

 

and address tests are used to ensure

B12

that memory writes do not corrupt adjacent

 

 

memory locations.

Group C: Block Tests

 

 

 

C1

CPU Logic and

Verifies the basic logic functionality of all the

 

DMA Interface

on-chip CPUs. It also exercises the DMA

 

 

interface exposed to those CPUs. The internal

 

 

CPU tries to initiate DMA activities (both read

 

 

and write) to system memory and then

 

 

compares the values to confirm that the DMA

 

 

operation completed successfully.
