Signals Reference

 

sampling BREQn# asserted by another symmetric agent, the symmetric owner deasserts BREQn#

 

as soon as possible to release the bus. A symmetric owner stops issuing new requests that are not

 

part of an existing locked operation on observing BPRI# asserted.

 

A symmetric agent can deassert BREQn# before it becomes a symmetric owner. A symmetric

 

agent can reassert BREQn# after keeping it deasserted for one clock.

A.1.16

CCL# (I/O)

 

CCL# is the Cache Cleanse signal. It is driven on the second clock of the Request Phase on the

 

EXF[2]#/Ab[5]# pin. CCL# is asserted for Memory Write transaction to indicate that a modified

 

line in a processor may be written to memory without being invalidated in its caches.

A.1.17

CPUPRES# (O)

 

CPUPRES# can be used to detect the presence of a Itanium 2 processor in a socket. A ground

 

indicates that a Itanium 2 processor is installed, while an open indicates that a Itanium 2 processor

 

is not installed.

A.1.18

D[127:0]# (I/O)

 

The Data (D[127:0]#) signals provide a 128-bit data path between various system bus agents.

 

Partial transfers require one data transfer clock with valid data on the byte(s) indicated by asserted

 

byte enables BE[7:0]# and A[3]#. Data signals that are not valid for a particular transfer must still

 

have correct ECC (if data bus error checking is enabled). The data driver asserts DRDY# to

 

indicate a valid data transfer.

A.1.19

D/C# (I/O)

 

The Data/Code (D/C#) signal is used to indicate data (1) or code (0) on REQa[1]#, only during

 

Memory Read transactions.

A.1.20

DBSY# (I/O)

 

The Data Bus Busy (DBSY#) signal is asserted by the agent that is responsible for driving data on

 

the system bus to indicate that the data bus is in use. The data bus is released after DBSY# is

 

deasserted.

 

DBSY# is replicated three times to enable partitioning of the data paths in the system agents. This

 

copy of the Data Bus Busy signal (DBSY#) is an input as well as an output.

A.1.21

DBSY_C1# (O)

 

DBSY# is a copy of the Data Bus Busy signal. This copy of the Data Bus Busy signal

 

(DBSY_C1#) is an output only.
