4.3.2 AGP CONFIGURATION
AGP bus operations require the configuration of certain parameters involving system memory
access by the AGP graph ics adapter. Th e AGP bus interface is confi gured as a PCI device
integrated within the north bridge (MCH, device 1) component. The AGP function is, from the
PCI bus perspective, treated essentially as a PCI/PCI bridge and configured through PCI
configuration registers (Table 4-4). Configuration is accomplished by BIOS during POST.
NOTE: Configuration of the AGP bus interface involves functions 0 and 1 of the
MCH. Function 0 registers (listed in Table 3-4) include functions that affect basic
control (GART) of the AGP.

device.
