3.14 MIN_GNT and MAX_LAT Register

The MIN_GNT and MAX_LAT register is used to communicate to the system the desired setting of bits 15±8 of the latency timer and class cache line size register (offset 0Ch, see Section 3.7). If a serial ROM is detected, then the contents of this register are loaded through the serial ROM interface after a PCI reset. If no serial ROM is detected, then this register returns a default value that corresponds to the MIN_GNT = 2, MAX_LAT = 4. See Table 3±11 for a complete description of the register contents.
