Table 93. I2O Outbound Post_List Counter

Byte Offsets: 063:060h

Bit

Name

R/W

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When read, returns the number of entries in the Outbound

 

 

 

Post_List.

 

 

 

Increments by 1 when this location is written from the

 

 

 

secondary interface with any data value if bit [31] of this register

 

 

 

is written with a 0 during the same write.

15:0

Outbound Post Ctr

R/(WS)

When bit [31] is written with a 1, the 21555 loads the counter

 

 

 

with the value written.

 

 

 

Decrements when the Outbound Queue at offset 44h is read

 

 

 

from the primary interface, except when the counter is zero. The

 

 

 

21555 does not decrement when the counter is 0.

 

 

 

Reset value is 0

 

 

 

 

30:16

Reserved

R

Reserved. Read only as 0.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Load Outbound Post_List Counter.

 

 

 

When written with a 1 at the same time as the Outbound Post

31

LD_OPC

W1TL(S)

Ctr bits [15:0], it loads the Outbound Post_List Counter with the

value on s_ad[15:0] during that same write.

 

 

 

 

 

 

When written with a 0, or if s_cbe_l[3] is 1, it increments the

 

 

 

Outbound Post_List Counter. Reads always return 0.

 

 

 

 

Table 94. I2O Outbound Free_List Counter

Byte Offsets: 067:064h

Bit

Name

R/W

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When read, returns the number of entries in the Outbound

 

 

 

Free_List.

 

 

 

Decrements by 1 when this location is written from the

 

 

 

secondary interface with any data value when bit [31] of this

15:0

Outbound Free Ctr

R/(WS)

register is written with a 0 during the same write.

When bit [31] is written with a 1, the 21555 loads the counter

 

 

 

 

 

 

with the value written.

 

 

 

Increments when the Outbound Queue at offset 44h is written

 

 

 

from the primary interface.

 

 

 

Reset value is 0

 

 

 

 

30:16

Reserved

R

Reserved. Read only as 0.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Load Outbound Free_List Counter.

 

 

 

• When written with a 1 at the same time as the Outbound

 

 

 

Free Ctr bits [15:0], it loads the Outbound Free_List

31

LD_OPC

W1TL(S)

Counter with the value on s_ad[15:0] during that same

 

 

 

write.

 

 

 

• When written with a 0, or if s_cbe_l[3] is 1, it decrements

 

 

 

the Outbound Free_List Counter. Reads always return 0.
