4 PC Card Controller Programming Model

This chapter describes the PCI7x21/PCI7x11 PCI configuration registers that make up the 256-byte PCI configuration header for each PCI7x21/PCI7x11 function. There are some bits which affect both CardBus functions, but which, in order to work properly, must be accessed only through function 0. These are called global bits. Registers containing one or more global bits are denoted by § in Table 4−2.

Any bit followed by a † is not cleared by the assertion of PRST (see CardBus Bridge Power Management, Section 3.8.10, for more details) if PME is enabled (PCI offset A4h, bit 8). In this case, these bits are cleared only by GRST. If PME is not enabled, then these bits are cleared by GRST or PRST. These bits are sometimes referred to as PME context bits and are implemented to allow PME context to be preserved during the transition from D3hot or D3cold to D0.

If a bit is followed by a ‡, then this bit is cleared only by GRST in all cases (not conditional on PME being enabled). These bits are intended to maintain device context such as interrupt routing and MFUNC programming during warm resets.

A bit description table, typically included when the register contains bits of more than one type or purpose, indicates bit field names, a detailed field description, and field access tags which appear in the type column. Table 4−1 describes the field access tags.

MEANING

 

 

 

R

Read

Field can be read by software.

 

 

 

W

Write

Field can be written by software to any value.

 

 

 

S

Set

Field can be set by a write of 1. Writes of 0 have no effect.

 

 

 

C

Clear

Field can be cleared by a write of 1. Writes of 0 have no effect.

 

 

 

U

Update

Field can be autonomously updated by the PCI7x21/PCI7x11 controller.

 

 

 

4.1 PCI Configuration Register Map (Functions 0 and 1)

The PCI7x21/PCI7x11 is a multifunction PCI device, and the PC Card controller is integrated as PCI functions 0 and

1.The configuration header, compliant with the PCI Local Bus Specification as a CardBus bridge header, is PC99/PC2001 compliant as well. Table 4−2 illustrates the PCI configuration register map, which includes both the predefined portion of the configuration space and the user-definable registers.
