AMD-8151TMAGP Tunnel Data Sheet

26MASHST: master host. Read; set and cleared by hardware. This bit indicates which link is the path to the master (or only) host bridge on the HyperTransport™ technology chain. 1=The hardware set this bit as a result of a write command from the B side of the tunnel to any of the bytes of DevA:0xC0[31:16]. 0=The hardware cleared this bit as a result of a write command from the A side of the tunnel to any of the bytes of DevA:0xC0[31:16]. This bit, along with DEFDIR, is used to determine the side of the tunnel to which AGP master requests are sent.

25:21

UnitID count. Read only. Specifies the number of UnitIDs used by the IC (three).

20:16

BUID: base UnitID. Read-write. This specifies the link-protocol base UnitID. The IC's logic uses

 

this value to determine the UnitIDs for link request and response packets. When a new value is

 

written to this field, the response includes a UnitID that is based on the new value in this register.

 

Note: some legacy operating systems may require that this value be set to zero for normal operation

 

so that the AGP capability block is part of device 0. Since the IC does not use the base unit ID in any

 

link transactions, there is no conflict with the host unit ID. However, at boot, BIOS is required to

 

temporarily change the BUID value of the IC so that the BUID values in downstream devices may be

 

initialized. After downstream BUID values are initialized, this field may be set to zero to be

 

compatible with legacy operating systems.

 

 

 

 

15:8

Reserved.

 

 

 

7:0

Capabilities ID. Read only. Specifies the capabilities ID for link configuration space.

 

 

Link Configuration And Control Register

DevA:0xC4 and DevA:0xC8

 

 

 

DevA:0xC4 applies side A of the tunnel and DevA:0xC8 applies to side B of the tunnel. The default value for bit[5] may vary (see the definition).

Default: ??11 0020h for DevA:0xC4 and ??00 0020h for DevA:0xC8.Attribute: See below.

Reserved.

 

 

30:28

LWO: link width out. Read-write. Specifies the operating width of the outgoing link. Legal values

 

are 001b (16 bits; DevA:0xC4 only), 000b (8 bits), 101b (4 bits), 100b (2 bits), and 111b (not

 

connected). Note: this field is cleared by PWROK reset but not by RESET#; the default value of this

 

field depends on the widths of the links of the connecting device, per the link specification. Note:

 

after this field is updated, the link width does not change until either RESET# is asserted or a link

 

disconnect sequence occurs through or LDTSTOP#.

 

 

27

Reserved.

 

 

26:24

LWI: link width in. Read-write. Specifies the operating width of the incoming link. Legal values are

 

001b (16 bits; DevA:0xC4 only), 000b (8 bits), 101b (4 bits), 100b (2 bits), and 111b (not connected).

 

Note: this field is cleared by PWROK reset but not by RESET#; the default value of this field depends

 

on the widths of the links of the connecting device, per the link specification. Note: after this field is

 

updated, the link width does not change until either RESET# is asserted or a link disconnect sequence

 

occurs through an LDTSTOP# assertion.

 

 

23

Reserved.

 

 

22:20

Max link width out. Read only. This specifies the width of the outgoing link to be 16 bits wide for

 

side A and 8 bits wide for side B.

 

 

19

Reserved.
