Name

R/W

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This register contains the write data driven or the read data returned from a

 

 

 

configuration transaction initiated by the 21555. The Downstream or

 

 

 

Upstream Configuration Address register contains the address for this

 

 

 

transaction, depending on the direction of the transaction.

 

 

 

The transaction is initiated when this register is written (for a configuration

 

 

 

write) or read (for a configuration read) and the corresponding

 

 

DCD:

Configuration Control bit is a one.

 

 

The byte enables used for this register access are the same byte enables

used for the transaction driven on the target bus. A target retry is returned to

 

 

31:0

 

the initiator until the transaction has been completed on the target bus.

(CD)

 

 

UCD:

When the semaphore method is used, a master should not write to this

 

 

 

 

register unless the master has successfully read a 0 from the Downstream

 

 

R/(WS)

 

 

or Upstream Configuration Own bit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Downstream Configuration Data register is reserved when accessed

 

 

 

from the secondary interface, or on either interface when the Downstream

 

 

 

Configuration Enable bit is not set.

 

 

 

The Upstream Configuration Data register is reserved when accessed from

 

 

 

the primary interface, or on either interface when the Upstream

 

 

 

Configuration Enable bit is not set.

Indicates ownership of the Downstream Configuration Address and

 

 

 

Downstream Configuration Data registers.

 

 

 

When 0, downstream Configuration Address and Downstream

 

 

 

Configuration Data registers are not owned. When read as a 0

 

 

 

from the primary interface, this bit is subsequently set to a 1 by

Own Bit

Downstream Configuration Data registers. When this semaphore

 

 

 

 

 

method is used, other masters should not attempt to access

 

 

 

these registers when this bit is a 1. This bit is automatically

 

 

 

cleared once the configuration transaction has completed on the

 

 

 

initiator bus.

 

 

 

• Reset value is 0.
