102 Intel® 41210 Serial to Parallel PCI Bridge Developer’s Manual

Register Description
12.2.47 O ffset DCh: PX_BSTS—PCI-X Bridge Status

This register identifies PCI-X status register for the bridge primary side.

12.2.48 O ffset E0h: PX_USTC—PCI-X Upstream Split Transaction Control

This register controls the behavior of the 41210 buffers for forwarding split transactions from the

secondary bus to PCI Express*.

Table 81. Offset DCh: PX_BSTS—PCI-X Brid ge Status

Bits Type Reset Description
31:22 RO 000h Reserved
21 RO 0b
Split Request Delayed (SRD): Ordinarily, this bit is set by a bridge when it cannot
forward a transaction onto the primary bus from the secondary bus because there is not
enough room within the limit specified in the Split Transaction Commitment Limit field in
the upstream Split Transaction Control Register. The Intel® 41210 Serial to Parallel PCI
Bridge does not set this bit.
20 RO 0b Split Completion Overrun (SCO): This bit is not set by the 41210 because the 41210
does not request more data on PCI Express* than it has room to receive.
19 RO 0b Unexpected Split Completion (USC): This bit is s et when a completion on PCI Express*
is addressed to a specific bridge segment (either A or B) but the tag does not match.
18 RO 0b Split Completion Discarded (SCD): This bit does not apply t o PCI Express*.
17 RO 0b 133 MHz Capable (C133): Not applicable
16 RO 0b 64-bit Device (D64): Not applicable
15:8 RO 00h Bus Number (BNUM): This register is an alias to the PBN field of the BNUM register
(“Offset 18h: BNUM—Bus Numbers” on page 82).
7:3 RO 00h Device Number (DNUM): Device number is 0 for both PCI segment br idges.
2:0 RO AB
Function Number (FNUM): Read-only bits for PCI-X diagnostic software
000b 010b

Bits Type Reset Description
31:16 RW FFFFh
Split Transaction Limit (STL): This field is R/W to accommodate diagnostic software that
might want to use it. This field is not used by the Intel® 41210 Serial to Parallel PCI Bridge
for modifying its “commitment” level. The 41210 internal launch algorithms prevent buffers
from being over-allocated.
15:0 RO FFFFh Split Transaction Capacity (STC): Due to the internal launch algorithm, the 41210 always
has capacity for its outstanding split transactions.
