4 OHCI Registers

The OHCI registers defined by the 1394 Open Host Controller Interface Specification are memory-mapped into a 2-Kbyte region of memory pointed to by the OHCI base address register at offset 10h in PCI configuration space (see Section 3.9). These registers are the primary interface for controlling the TSB12LV26 IEEE 1394 link function.

This section provides the register interface and bit descriptions. There are several set/clear register pairs in this programming model, which are implemented to solve various issues with typical read-modify-write control registers. There are two addresses for a set/clear register: RegisterSet and RegisterClear. Refer to Table 4±1 for an illustration. A 1 bit written to RegisterSet causes the corresponding bit in the set/clear register to be set, while a 0 bit leaves the corresponding bit unaffected. A 1 bit written to RegisterClear causes the corresponding bit in the set/clear register to be cleared, while a 0 bit leaves the corresponding bit in the set/clear register unaffected.

Typically, a read from either RegisterSet or RegisterClear returns the contents of the set or clear register, respectively. However, sometimes reading the RegisterClear provides a masked version of the set or clear register. The interrupt event register is an example of this behavior.
