Table 97. Chip Clear IRQ Mask Register

Byte Offsets: 087:086h

Bit

Name

R/W

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• When 0, signal s_inta_l is asserted on the 21555’s secondary

 

 

 

interface when the corresponding chip event bit is a 1, indicating a

 

 

 

return of power state to D0.

 

 

 

• When 1, the corresponding chip event bit does not generate an

0

Clr_D0M

R/W1TC

interrupt.

Writing a 1 to a bit in this register clears the Chip IRQ Mask bit to

 

 

 

 

 

 

0.

 

 

 

Writing a 0 to any bit in this register has no effect. Reading this

 

 

 

register returns the current status of the Chip IRQ Mask bits.

 

 

 

• Reset value is 1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• When 0, p_inta_l is asserted on the 21555’s primary interface

 

 

 

when the corresponding chip event bit, indicating a deasserting

 

 

 

edge on s_pme_l, is a 1.

 

 

 

• When 1, the corresponding chip event bit does not generate an

1

Clr_Sstat

R/W1TC

interrupt.

Writing a 1 to a bit in this register clears the Chip IRQ Mask bit to

 

 

 

 

 

 

0.

 

 

 

Writing a 0 to any bit in this register has no effect. Reading this

 

 

 

register returns the current status of the Chip IRQ Mask bits.

 

 

 

• Reset value is 1

 

 

 

 

15:2

Reserved

R

Reserved. Returns 0 when read.

 

 

 

 

Table 98. Upstream Page Boundary IRQ 0 Register

Byte Offset: 08B:088h

Bit

Name

R/W

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Each bit in this register corresponds to a page entry in the lower

 

 

 

half of the Upstream Memory 2 range. Bit 0 corresponds to the

 

 

 

first (lowest order) page, and bit 31 corresponds to the 32nd page.

31:0

PAGE0_IRQ

R/W1TC

The 21555 sets the appropriate bit when it successfully transfers

data to/from the initiator that addresses the last Dword in a page.

 

 

 

When the Upstream Page Boundary 0 IRQ Mask bit

 

 

 

corresponding to that page is zero, the 21555 asserts s_inta_l.

 

 

 

Reset value is 0
