Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bridge Configuration Retry Enable: When set, the bridge is enabled to return a

15

 

RW

0b

completion with Completion Retry Status (CRS) on PCI Express* when a configuration

 

transaction to the secondary interface did not complete within the PCI completion time-out

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

period.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Max_Read_Request_Size: This field applies to the bridge segment when the segment is in

 

 

 

 

PCI mode only. When in PCI-X mode, this field does not apply. The Intel® 41210 Serial to

 

 

 

 

Parallel PCI Bridge cannot send requests larger than the size indicated by this field.

 

 

 

 

Encodings are as follows:

RO

0b

Enable No Snoop: Hard-wired to 0

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

10

 

RO

0b

Auxiliary (AUX) Power PM Enable: Not supported

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

9

 

RO

0b

Phantom Function Enable: Not supported

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8

 

RO

0b

Extended Tag Field Enable: Ignored because only 5-bit tag is supported

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Maximum Payload Size: These bits indicate the maximum payload size supported for

 

 

 

 

TLPs. Supported encodings are as follows:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

7:5

 

RW

000b

 

Bit

Max_Payload_Size

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

000b

128-byte maximum payload size

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

001b

256-byte maximum payload size

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All other values default to 128 bytes.

RO

0b

Enable Relaxed Ordering: Hard-wired to 0

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unsupported Request Reporting Enable: This bit controls the enabling of

 

 

 

 

ERR_NONFATAL or ERR_FATAL messages on PCI Express* for reporting “Unsupported

3

 

RW

0b

Request” errors. Note that the following requests use this enable bit:

 

• requests from PCI Express* that are unsupported

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• requests from PCI Express* that master-abort on the internal switch
