  | Description  | 
  | 
  | 
  | ||
HD[63:0]#  | I/O  | Host Data: These signals are connected to the system data bus.  | ||
  | AGTL+  | HD[63:0]# are transferred at a 4x rate. Note that the data signals are  | ||
  | 
  | inverted on the system bus.  | 
  | |
  | 
  | 
  | ||
HDSTBP[3:0]#  | I/O  | Differential Host Data Strobes: The differential source synchronous  | ||
HDSTBN[3:0]#  | AGTL+  | strobes used to transfer HD[63:0]# and DBI[3:0]# at the 4x transfer rate.  | ||

  | HDSTBP3#, HDSTBN3#  | HD[63:48]#, DBI3#  | |
  | 
  | HDSTBP2#, HDSTBN2#  | HD[47:32]#, DBI2#  | |
  | 
  | HDSTBP1#, HDSTBN1#  | HD[31:16]#, DBI1#  | |
  | 
  | HDSTBP0#, HDSTBN0#  | HD[15:0]#, DBI0#  | |
  | 
  | 
  | ||
HIT#  | I/O  | Hit: This signal indicates that a caching agent holds an unmodified version  | ||
  | AGTL+  | of the requested line. HIT# is also driven in conjunction with HITM# by the  | ||
  | 
  | target to extend the snoop window.  | ||
  | 
  | 
  | ||
HITM#  | I/O  | Hit Modified: This signal indicates that a caching agent holds a modified  | ||
  | AGTL+  | version of the requested line and that this agent assumes responsibility for  | ||
  | 
  | providing the line. HITM# is also driven in conjunction with HIT# to extend  | ||
  | 
  | the snoop window.  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | ||
HLOCK#  | I  | Host Lock: All system bus cycles sampled with the assertion of HLOCK#  | ||
  | AGTL+  | and ADS#, until the negation of HLOCK# must be atomic (i.e., no hub  | ||
  | 
  | interface or AGP snoopable access to system memory are allowed when  | ||
  | 
  | HLOCK# is asserted by the processor).  | ||
  | 
  | 
  | ||
HREQ[4:0]#  | I/O  | Host Request Command: These signals define the attributes of the  | ||
  | AGTL+  | request. In Enhanced Mode HREQ[4:0]# are transferred at 2x rate.  | ||
  | 
  | HREQ[4:0]# are asserted by the requesting agent during both halves of  | ||
  | 
  | Request Phase. In the first half the signals define the transaction type to a  | ||
  | 
  | level of detail that is sufficient to begin a snoop request. In the second half  | ||
  | 
  | the signals carry additional information to define the complete transaction  | ||
  | 
  | type.  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | The transactions supported by the MCH host bridge are defined in the  | ||
  | 
  | Section 5.1.  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | ||
HTRDY#  | O  | Host Target Ready: HTRDY# indicates that the target of the processor  | ||
  | AGTL+  | transaction is able to enter the data transfer phase.  | ||
  | 
  | 
  | ||
RS[2:0]#  | O  | Response Status: RS[2:0]# indicates the type of response according to  | ||
  | AGTL+  | the following the table:  | 
  | |
  | 
  | RS[2:0] | Response Type | |
  | 
  | 000  | Idle state  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 001  | Retry response  | |
  | 
  | 010  | Deferred response  | |
  | 
  | 011  | Reserved (not driven by MCH)  | |
  | 
  | 100  | Hard Failure (not driven by MCH)  | |
  | 
  | 101  | No data response  | |
  | 
  | 110  | Implicit Write back  | |
  | 
  | 111  | Normal data response  | |
