1.0 Introduction

The 21150 is a second-generation PCI-to-PCI bridge and is fully compliant with PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.1. The 21150 provides full support for delayed transactions, which enables the buffering of memory read, I/O, and configuration transactions. The 21150 has separate posted write, read data, and delayed transaction queues with significantly more buffering capability than first-generation bridges. In addition, the 21150 supports buffering of simultaneous multiple posted write and delayed transactions in both directions. Among the features provided by the 21150 are a programmable 2-level secondary bus arbiter, an IEEE standard 1149.1 JTAG interface, live insertion support, a 4-pin general-purpose I/O interface, individual secondary clock disables, and enhanced address decoding. The 21150 has sufficient clock and arbitration pins to support nine PCI bus master devices directly on its secondary interface. The 21150 allows the two PCI buses to operate concurrently. This means that a master and a target on the same PCI bus can communicate while the other PCI bus is busy. This traffic isolation may increase system performance in applications such as multimedia. The 21150 makes it possible to extend a system’s load capability limit beyond that of a single PCI bus by allowing motherboard designers to add more PCI devices or more PCI option card slots than a single PCI bus can support. Figure 1 illustrates the use of two 21150 PCI-to-PCI bridges on a system board. Each 21150 that is added to the board creates a new PCI bus that provides support for the additional PCI slots or devices Option card designers can use the 21150 to implement multiple-device PCI option cards. Without a PCI-to-PCI bridge, PCI loading rules would limit option cards to one device. The PCI Local Bus Specification) loading rules limit PCI option cards to a single connection per PCI signal in the option card connector. The 21150 overcomes this restriction by providing, on the option card, an independent PCI bus to which up to nine devices can be attached. Figure 2 shows how the 21150 enables the design of a multicomponent option card.

1.2 Data Path

  • Posted write queue
  • Delayed transaction queue
  • Read data queue To prevent deadlocks and to maintain data coherency, a set of ordering rules is imposed on the forwarding of posted and delayed transactions across the 21150. The queue structure, along with the order in which the transactions in the queues are initiated and completed, supports these ordering requirements. Section 6.0 describes the 21150 ordering rules in detail. See Section 4.0 for a detailed description of 21150 PCI bus operation. Figure 4 shows the 21150 data path for the downstream direction, and the following sections describe the data path queues. Secondary-to-Primary Data Path Data path for data received on the secondary interface and driven on the primary interface. This block is used for write transactions initiated on the secondary PCI bus and for returning read data for read transactions initiated on the primary PCI bus. This block contains logic to store and, for posted write transactions, to increment the address of the current transaction. This block also performs bus command and configuration address format translations Configuration Registers Configuration space registers and corresponding control logic. These registers are accessible from the primary interface only. Secondary Bus Arbiter Control Logic for secondary bus arbitration. This block receives s_req_l<8:0>, as well as the 21150 secondary bus request, and drives one of the s_gnt_l<8:0> lines or the 21150 secondary bus grant.

6 Preliminary Datasheet

1.3 Posted Write Queue

The posted write queue contains the address and data of memory write transactions targeted for the opposite interface. The posted write transaction can consist of an arbitrary number of data phases, subject to the amount of space in the queue and disconnect boundaries. The posted write queue can contain multiple posted write transactions. The number of posted write transactions that can be queued at one time is dependent upon their burst size. The posted write queue consists of 88 bytes in each direction.

1.4 Delayed Transaction Queue

For a delayed write request transaction, the delayed transaction queue contains the address, bus command, 1 Dword of write data, byte enable bits, and parity. When the delayed write transaction is completed on the target bus, the write completion status is added to the corresponding entry. For a delayed read request transaction, the delayed transaction queue contains the address and bus command, and for nonprefetchable read transactions, the byte enable bits. When the delayed read transaction is completed on the target bus, the read completion status corresponding to that transaction is added to the delayed request entry. Read data is placed in the read data queue. The delayed transaction queue can hold up to three transactions (any combination of read and write transactions).

1.5 Read Data Queue

The read data queue contains read data transferred from the target during a delayed read completion. Read data travels in the opposite direction of the transaction. The primary-to- secondary read data queue contains read data corresponding to a delayed read transaction residing in the secondary-to-primary delayed transaction queue. The secondary-to-primary read data queue contains read data corresponding to a delayed read transaction in the primary-to-secondary delayed transaction queue. The amount of read data per transaction depends on the amount of space in the queue and disconnect boundaries. Read data for up to three transactions, subject to the burst size of the read transactions and available queue space, can be stored. The read data queue for the 21150 consists of 72 bytes in each direction.

  • When p_stop_l is asserted in conjunction with p_trdy_l and p_devsel_l assertion, a disconnect with data transfer is being signaled.
  • When p_stop_l and p_devsel_l are asserted, but p_trdy_l is deasserted, a target disconnect without data transfer is being signaled. When this occurs on the first data phase, that is, no data is transferred during the transaction, this is referred to as a target retry.
  • When p_stop_l is asserted and p_devsel_l is deasserted, the target is signaling a target abort. When the primary bus is idle, p_stop_l is driven to a deasserted state for one cycle and then is sustained by an external pull-up resistor. p_lock_l I Primary PCI interface LOCK#. Signal p_lock_l is deasserted during the first address phase of a transaction and is asserted one clock cycle later by an initiator attempting to perform an atomic operation that may take more than one PCI transaction to complete. The 21150 samples p_lock_l as a target and can propagate the lock across to the secondary bus. The 21150 does not drive p_lock_l as an initiator; that is, the 21150 does not propagate locked transactions upstream. When released by an initiator, p_lock_l is driven to a deasserted state for one cycle and then is sustained by an external pull-up resistor. p_idsel I Primary PCI interface IDSEL#. Signal p_idsel is used as the chip select line for Type 0 configuration accesses to 21150 configuration space. When p_idsel is asserted during the address phase of a Type 0 configuration transaction, the 21150 responds to the transaction by asserting p_devsel_l.

When asserted, p_gnt_lindicates to the 21150 that access to the primary bus is granted. The 21150 can start a transaction on the primary bus when the bus is idle and p_gnt_l is asserted. When the 21150 has not requested use of the bus and p_gnt_l is asserted, the 21150 must drive p_ad, and p_par to valid logic levels.

4.1 Types of Transactions

This section provides a summary of PCI transactions performed by the 21150. as a target, on the primary bus and on the secondary bus.

  • The 21150 never initiates a PCI transaction with a reserved command code and, as a target, the 21150 ignores reserved command codes.
  • The 21150 never initiates an interrupt acknowledge transaction and, as a target, the 21150 ignores interrupt acknowledge transactions. Interrupt acknowledge transactions are expected to reside entirely on the primary PCI bus closest to the host bridge.
  • The 21150 does not respond to special cycle transactions. The 21150 cannot guarantee delivery of a special cycle transaction to downstream buses because of the broadcast nature of the special cycle command and the inability to control the transaction as a target. To generate

Table 15. 21150 PCI Transactions

21150 Initiates as Master 21150 Initiates as Target

28 Preliminary Datasheet

special cycle transactions on other PCI buses, either upstream or downstream, a Type 1 configuration command must be used.

  • The 21150 does not generate Type 0 configuration transactions on the primary interface, nor does it respond to Type 0 configuration transactions on the secondary PCI interface. The PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture Specification does not support configuration from the secondary bus.

4.2 Address Phase

The standard PCI transaction consists of one or two address phases, followed by one or more data phases. An address phase always lasts one PCI clock cycle. The first address phase is designated by an asserting (falling) edge on the FRAME# signal. The number of address phases depends on whether the address is 32 bits or 64 bits.

4.2.1 Single Address Phase

A 32-bit address uses a single address phase. This address is driven on AD<31:0>, and the bus command is driven on C/BE#<3:0>. The 21150 supports the linear increment address mode only, which is indicated when the low 2 address bits are equal to 0. If either of the low 2 address bits is nonzero, the 21150 automatically disconnects the transaction after the first data transfer.

4.2.2 Dual Address Phase

Dual address transactions are PCI transactions that contain two address phases specifying a 64-bit address. The first address phase is denoted by the asserting edge of FRAME#. The second address phase always follows on the next clock cycle. For a 32-bit interface, the first address phase contains the dual address command code on the C/BE#<3:0> lines, and the low 32 address bits on the AD<31:0> lines. The second address phase consists of the specific memory transaction command code on the C/BE#<3:0> lines, and the high 32 address bits on the AD<31:0>lines. In this way, 64-bit addressing can be supported on 32-bit PCI buses. The PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture Specification supports the use of dual address transactions in the prefetchable memory range only. See Section 5.3 for a discussion of prefetchable address space. The 21150 supports dual address transactions in both the upstream and the downstream direction. The 21150 supports a programmable 64-bit address range in prefetchable memory for downstream forwarding of dual address transactions. Dual address transactions falling outside the prefetchable address range are forwarded upstream, but not downstream. Prefetching and posting are performed in a manner consistent with the guidelines given in this specification for each type of memory transaction in prefetchable memory space.

  • Memory write
  • Memory write and invalidate
  • Memory read
  • Memory read line
  • Memory read multiple Use of other transaction codes may result in a master abort. Any memory transactions addressing the first 4GB space should use a single address phase; that is, the high 32 bits of a dual address transaction should never be 0.

30 Preliminary Datasheet

4.5.1 Posted Write Transactions

Posted write forwarding is used for memory write and for memory write and invalidate transactions. When the 21150 determines that a memory write transaction is to be forwarded across the bridge, the 21150 asserts DEVSEL# with medium timing and TRDY# in the same cycle, provided that enough buffer space is available in the posted data queue for the address and at least 8 Dwords of data. This enables the 21150 to accept write data without obtaining access to the target bus. The 21150 can accept 1 Dword of write data every PCI clock cycle; that is, no target wait states are inserted. This write data is stored in internal posted write buffers and is subsequently delivered to the target. The 21150 continues to accept write data until one of the following events occurs:

  • The initiator terminates the transaction by deasserting FRAME# and IRDY#.
  • An internal write address boundary is reached, such as a cache line boundary or an aligned 4KB boundary, depending on the transaction type.
  • The posted write data buffer fills up. When one of the last two events occurs, the 21150 returns a target disconnect to the requesting initiator on this data phase to terminate the transaction. Once the posted write data moves to the head of the posted data queue, the 21150 asserts its request on the target bus. This can occur while the 21150 is still receiving data on the initiator bus. When the grant for the target bus is received and the target bus is detected in the idle condition, the 21150 asserts FRAME# and drives the stored write address out on the target bus. On the following cycle, the 21150 drives the first Dword of write data and continues to transfer write data until all write data corresponding to that transaction is delivered, or until a target termination is received. As long as write data exists in the queue, the 21150 can drive 1 Dword of write data each PCI clock cycle; that is, no master wait states are inserted. If write data is flowing through the 21150 and the initiator stalls, the 21150 may have to insert wait states on the target bus if the queue empties. Figure 6 shows a memory write transaction in flow-through mode, where data is being removed from buffers on the target interface while more data is being transferred into the buffers on the master interface.
  • All posted write data has been delivered to the target.
  • The target returns a target disconnect or target retry (the 21150 starts another transaction to deliver the rest of the write data).
  • The target returns a target abort (the 21150 discards remaining write data).
  • The master latency timer expires, and the 21150 no longer has the target bus grant (the 21150 starts another transaction to deliver remaining write data). Section 4.8.3.2 provides detailed information about how the 21150 responds to target termination during posted write transactions.

4.5.2 Memory Write and Invalidate Transactions

Posted write forwarding is used for memory write and invalidate transactions. Memory write and invalidate transactions guarantee transfer of entire cache lines. If the write buffer fills before an entire cache line is transferred, the 21150 disconnects the transaction and converts it to a memory write transaction. The 21150 disconnects memory write and invalidate commands at aligned cache line boundaries. The cache line size value in the 21150 cache line size register gives the number of Dwords in a cache line. For the 21150 to generate memory write and invalidate transactions, this cache line size value must be written to a value that is a nonzero power of 2 and less than or equal to 16 (that is, 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16 Dwords). If the cache line size does not meet the memory write and invalidate conditions, that is, the value is 0, or is not a power of 2, or is greater than 16 Dwords, the 21150 treats the memory write and invalidate command as a memory write command. In this case, when the 21150 forwards the memory write and invalidate transaction to the target bus, it converts the command code to a memory write code and does not observe cache line boundaries. If the value in the cache line size register does meet the memory write and invalidate conditions, that is, the value is a nonzero power of 2 less than or equal to 16 Dwords, the 21150 returns a target disconnect to the initiator either on a cache line boundary or when the posted write buffer fills. For a cache line size of 16 Dwords, the 21150 disconnects a memory write and invalidate transaction on every cache line boundary. When the cache line size is 1, 2, 4, or 8 Dwords, the 21150 accepts another cache line if at least 8 Dwords of empty space remains in the posted write buffer. If less than 8 Dwords of empty space remains, the 21150 disconnects on that cache line boundary. When the memory write and invalidate transaction is disconnected before a cache line boundary is reached, typically because the posted write buffer fills, the transaction is converted to a memory write transaction.

4.5.3 Delayed Write Transactions

Delayed write forwarding is used for I/O write transactions and for Type 1 configuration write transactions. A delayed write transaction guarantees that the actual target response is returned back to the initiator without holding the initiating bus in wait states. A delayed write transaction is limited to a single Dword data transfer. When a write transaction is first detected on the initiator bus, and the 21150 forwards it as a delayed transaction, the 21150 claims the access by asserting DEVSEL# and returns a target retry to the initiator. During the address phase, the 21150 samples the bus command, address, and address parity one cycle later. After IRDY# is asserted, the 21150 also samples the first data Dword, byte enable bits, and data parity. This information is placed into the delayed transaction queue. The transaction is queued only if no other existing delayed transactions have the same address and command, and if the delayed transaction queue is not full. When the delayed write transaction moves to the head of the delayed transaction queue and all ordering constraints with posted data are satisfied (see Section 6.0), the 21150 initiates the transaction on the target bus. The 21150 transfers the write data to the target. If the 21150 receives a target retry in response to the write transaction on the target bus, it continues to repeat the write transaction until the data transfer is completed, or until an error condition is encountered.

If the 21150 is unable to deliver write data after 224 attempts, the 21150 ceases further write attempts and returns a target abort to the initiator. The delayed transaction is removed from the delayed transaction queue. The 21150 also asserts p_serr_l if the primary SERR# enable bit is set in the command register. See Section 7.4 for information on the assertion of p_serr_l. When the initiator repeats the same write transaction (same command, address, byte enable bits, and data), and the completed delayed transaction is at the head of the queue, the 21150 claims the access by asserting DEVSEL# and returns TRDY# to the initiator, to indicate that the write data was transferred. If the initiator requests multiple Dwords, the 21150 also asserts STOP# in conjunction with TRDY# to signal a target disconnect. Note that only those bytes of write data with valid byte enable bits are compared. If any of the byte enable bits are turned off (driven high), the corresponding byte of write data is not compared. If the initiator repeats the write transaction before the data has been transferred to the target, the 21150 returns a target retry to the initiator. The 21150 continues to return a target retry to the initiator until write data is delivered to the target, or until an error condition is encountered. When the write transaction is repeated, the 21150 does not make a new entry into the delayed transaction queue. Section 4.8.3.1 provides detailed information about how the 21150 responds to target termination during delayed write transactions. Figure 7 shows a delayed write transaction forwarded downstream across the 21150.

4.6 Read Transactions

Delayed read forwarding is used for all read transactions crossing the 21150. Delayed read transactions are treated as either prefetchable or nonprefetchable. Table 18 shows the read behavior, prefetchable or nonprefetchable, for each type of read operation. Figure 8. Multiple Memory Write Transactions Posted and Initiated as Fast Back-to-Back Table 18.

4.6.4 Delayed Read Requests

4.6.5 Delayed Read Completion with Target

When the delayed read request reaches the head of the delayed transaction queue, and all previously queued posted write transactions have been delivered, the 21150 arbitrates for the target bus and initiates the read transaction, using the exact read address and read command captured from the initiator during the initial delayed read request. If the read transaction is a nonprefetchable read, the 21150 drives the captured byte enable bits during the next cycle. If the transaction is a prefetchable read transaction, it drives all byte enable bits to 0 for all data phases. If the 21150 receives a target retry in response to the read transaction on the target bus, it continues to repeat the read transaction until at least one data transfer is completed, or until an error condition is encountered. If the transaction is terminated via normal master termination or target disconnect after at least one data transfer has been completed, the 21150 does not initiate any further attempts to read more data. If the 21150 is unable to obtain read data from the target after 2 24 attempts, the 21150 ceases further read attempts and returns a target abort to the initiator. The delayed transaction is removed from the delayed transaction queue. The 21150 also asserts p_serr_l if the primary SERR# enable bit is set in the command register. See Section 7.4 for information on the assertion of p_serr_l. Once the 21150 receives DEVSEL# and TRDY# from the target, it transfers the data read to the opposite direction read data queue, pointing toward the opposite interface, before terminating the transaction. For example, read data in response to a downstream read transaction initiated on the primary bus is placed in the upstream read data queue. The 21150 can accept 1 Dword of read data each PCI clock cycle; that is, no master wait states are inserted. The number of Dwords transferred during a delayed read transaction depends on the conditions given in Table 19 (assuming no disconnect is received from the target).

4.6.6 Delayed Read Completion on Initiator Bus

When the transaction has been completed on the target bus, and the delayed read data is at the head of the read data queue, and all ordering constraints with posted write transactions have been satisfied, the 21150 transfers the data to the initiator when the initiator repeats the transaction. For memory read transactions, the 21150 aliases the memory read, memory read line, and memory read multiple bus commands when matching the bus command of the transaction to the bus command in the delayed transaction queue.The 21150 returns a target disconnect along with the transfer of the last Dword of read data to the initiator. If the initiator terminates the transaction before all read data has been transferred, the remaining read data left in data buffers is discarded. Figure 9 shows a nonprefetchable delayed read transaction.

4.7.1 Type 0 Access to the 21150

  • The bus command is a configuration read or configuration write transaction.
  • Low 2 address bits p_ad<1:0> must be 00b.
  • Signal p_idsel must be asserted. The function code is ignored because the 21150 is a single-function device.

Figure 12. Configuration Transaction Address Formats

44 Preliminary Datasheet

The 21150 limits all configuration accesses to a single Dword data transfer and returns a target disconnect with the first data transfer if additional data phases are requested. Because read transactions to 21150 configuration space do not have side effects, all bytes in the requested Dword are returned, regardless of the value of the byte enable bits. Type 0 configuration write and read transactions do not use 21150 data buffers; that is, these transactions are completed immediately, regardless of the state of the data buffers. The 21150 ignores all Type 0 transactions initiated on the secondary interface.

4.7.2 Type 1 to Type 0 Translation

Type 1 configuration transactions are used specifically for device configuration in a hierarchical PCI bus system. A PCI-to-PCI bridge is the only type of device that should respond to a Type 1 configuration command. Type 1 configuration commands are used when the configuration access is intended for a PCI device that resides on a PCI bus other than the one where the Type 1 transaction is generated. The 21150 performs a Type 1 to Type 0 translation when the Type 1 transaction is generated on the primary bus and is intended for a device attached directly to the secondary bus. The 21150 must convert the configuration command to a Type 0 format so that the secondary bus device can respond to it. Type 1 to Type 0 translations are performed only in the downstream direction; that is, the 21150 generates a Type 0 transaction only on the secondary bus, and never on the primary bus.

  • The 21150 responds to a Type 1 configuration transaction and translates it into a Type 0 transaction on the secondary bus when the following conditions are met during the address phase:
  • The low 2 address bits on p_ad<1:0> are 01b.
  • The bus number in address field p_ad<23:16> is equal to the value in the secondary bus number register in 21150 configuration space.
  • The bus command on p_cbe_l<3:0> is a configuration read or configuration write transaction. When the 21150 translates the Type 1 transaction to a Type 0 transaction on the secondary interface, it performs the following translations to the address:
  • Sets the low 2 address bits on s_ad<1:0> to 00b.
  • Decodes the device number and drives the bit pattern specified in Table 20 on s_ad<31:1> for the purpose of asserting the device’s IDSEL signal.
  • Sets s_ad<15:11>to 0.
  • Leaves unchanged the function number and register number fields. The 21150 asserts a unique address line based on the device number. These address lines may be used as secondary bus IDSEL signals. The mapping of the address lines depends on the device number in the Type 1 address bits p_ad<15:11>. Table 20 presents the mapping that the 21150 uses.

device, the transaction ends in a master abort.

4.7.3 Type 1 to Type 1 Forwarding

two or more levels of PCI-to-PCI bridges are used. from the secondary bus, the 21150 forwards the transaction unchanged to the secondary bus.

  • The low 2 address bits are equal to 01b.

Table 20. Device Number to IDSEL s_ad Pin Mapping

46 Preliminary Datasheet

  • The bus number falls in the range defined by the lower limit (exclusive) in the secondary bus number register and the upper limit (inclusive) in the subordinate bus number register.
  • The bus command is a configuration read or write transaction. The 21150 also supports Type 1 to Type 1 forwarding of configuration write transactions upstream to support upstream special cycle generation. A Type 1 configuration command is forwarded upstream when the following conditions are met:
  • The low 2 address bits are equal to 01b.
  • The bus number falls outside the range defined by the lower limit (inclusive) in the secondary bus number register and the upper limit (inclusive) in the subordinate bus number register.
  • The device number in address bits AD<15:11> is equal to 11111b.
  • The function number in address bits AD<10:8> is equal to 111b.
  • The bus command is a configuration write transaction. The 21150 forwards Type 1 to Type 1 configuration write transactions as delayed transactions. Type 1 to Type 1 configuration write transactions are limited to a single data transfer.

4.7.4 Special Cycles

The Type 1 configuration mechanism is used to generate special cycle transactions in hierarchical PCI systems. Special cycle transactions are ignored by a PCI-to-PCI bridge acting as a target and are not forwarded across the bridge. Special cycle transactions can be generated from Type 1 configuration write transactions in either the upstream or the downstream direction. The 21150 initiates a special cycle on the target bus when a Type 1 configuration write transaction is detected on the initiating bus and the following conditions are met during the address phase:

  • The low 2 address bits on AD<1:0> are equal to 01b.
  • The device number in address bits AD<15:11> is equal to 11111b.
  • The function number in address bits AD<10:8> is equal to 111b.
  • The register number in address bits AD<7:2> is equal to 000000b.
  • The bus number is equal to the value in the secondary bus number register in configuration space for downstream forwarding or equal to the value in the primary bus number register in configuration space for upstream forwarding.
  • The bus command on C/BE# is a configuration write command. When the 21150 initiates the transaction on the target interface, the bus command is changed from configuration write to special cycle. The address and data are forwarded unchanged. Devices that use special cycles ignore the address and decode only the bus command. The data phase contains the special cycle message. The transaction is forwarded as a delayed transaction, but in this case the target response is not forwarded back (because special cycles result in a master abort). Once the transaction is completed on the target bus, through detection of the master abort condition, the 21150 responds with TRDY# to the next attempt of the configuration transaction from the initiator. If more than one data transfer is requested, the 21150 responds with a target disconnect operation during the first data phase.

4.8 Transaction Termination

This section describes how the 21150 returns transaction termination conditions back to the initiator. The initiator can terminate transactions with one of the following types of termination:

  • Normal termination Normal termination occurs when the initiator deasserts FRAME# at the beginning of the last data phase, and deasserts IRDY# at the end of the last data phase in conjunction with either TRDY# or STOP# assertion from the target.
  • Master abort A master abort occurs when no target response is detected. When the initiator does not detect a DEVSEL# from the target within five clock cycles after asserting FRAME#, the initiator terminates the transaction with a master abort. If FRAME# is still asserted, the initiator deasserts FRAME# on the next cycle, and then deasserts IRDY# on the following cycle. IRDY# must be asserted in the same cycle in which FRAME# deasserts. If FRAME# is already deasserted, IRDY# can be deasserted on the next clock cycle following detection of the master abort condition. The target can terminate transactions with one of the following types of termination:
  • Normal termination—TRDY# and DEVSEL# asserted in conjunction with FRAME# deasserted and IRDY# asserted.
  • Target retry—STOP# and DEVSEL# asserted without TRDY# during the first data phase. No data transfers occur during the transaction. This transaction must be repeated.
  • Target disconnect with data transfer—STOP# and DEVSEL# asserted with TRDY#. Signals that this is the last data transfer of the transaction.
  • Target disconnect without data transfer—STOP# and DEVSEL# asserted without TRDY# after previous data transfers have been made. Indicates that no more data transfers will be made during this transaction.
  • Target abort—STOP# asserted without DEVSEL# and without TRDY#. Indicates that the target will never be able to complete this transaction. DEVSEL# must be asserted for at least one cycle during the transaction before the target abort is signaled.

4.8.1 Master Termination Initiated by the 21150

The 21150, as an initiator, uses normal termination if DEVSEL# is returned by the target within five clock cycles of the 21150’s assertion of FRAME# on the target bus. As an initiator, the 21150 terminates a transaction when the following conditions are met:

  • During a delayed write transaction, a single Dword is delivered.
  • During a nonprefetchable read transaction, a single Dword is transferred from the target.
  • During a prefetchable read transaction, a prefetch boundary is reached.
  • For a posted write transaction, all write data for the transaction is transferred from 21150 data buffers to the target.
  • For a burst transfer, with the exception of memory write and invalidate transactions, the master latency timer expires and the 21150’s bus grant is deasserted.
  • The target terminates the transaction with a retry, disconnect, or target abort.

48 Preliminary Datasheet

If the 21150 is delivering posted write data when it terminates the transaction because the master latency timer expires, it initiates another transaction to deliver the remaining write data. The address of the transaction is updated to reflect the address of the current Dword to be delivered. If the 21150 is prefetching read data when it terminates the transaction because the master latency timer expires, it does not repeat the transaction to obtain more data.

4.8.2 Master Abort Received by the 21150

If the 21150 initiates a transaction on the target bus and does not detect DEVSEL# returned by the target within five clock cycles of the 21150’s assertion of FRAME#, the 21150 terminates the transaction with a master abort. The 21150 sets the received master abort bit in the status register corresponding to the target bus. For delayed read and write transactions, when the master abort mode bit in the bridge control register is 0, the 21150returns TRDY# on the initiator bus and, for read transactions, returns FFFF FFFFh as data. When the master abort mode bit is 1, the 21150 returns target abort on the initiator bus. The 21150 also sets the signaled target abort bit in the register corresponding to the initiator bus. Figure 13 shows a delayed write transaction that is terminated with a master abort.

4.8.3 Target Termination Received by the 21150

  • Normal termination (upon deassertion of FRAME#)
  • Target retry
  • Target disconnect
  • Target abort The 21150 handles these terminations in different ways, depending on the type of transaction being performed.

4.8.3.1 Delayed Write Target Termination Response

target termination that occurs during a delayed write transaction.

  • The 21150 completes at least one data transfer.
  • The 21150 receives a master abort.
  • The 21150 receives a target abort.
  • The 21150 makes 224 write attempts resulting in a response of target retry. After the 21150 makes 224 attempts of the same delayed write transaction on the target bus, the 21150 asserts p_serr_l if the primary SERR# enable bit is set in the command register and the implementation-specific p_serr_l disable bit for this condition is not set in the p_serr_l event disable register. The 21150 stops initiating transactions in response to that delayed write transaction. The delayed write request is discarded. Upon a subsequent write transaction attempt by the initiator, the 21150 returns a target abort. See Section 7.4 for a description of system error conditions.

  • The 21150 completes at least one data transfer.

After the 21150 makes 224 attempts of the same delayed read transaction on the target bus, the 21150 asserts p_serr_l if the primary SERR# enable bit is set in the command register and the implementation-specific p_serr_l disable bit for this condition is not set in the p_serr_l event disable register. The 21150 stops initiating transactions in response to that delayed read transaction. The delayed read request is discarded. Upon a subsequent read transaction attempt by the initiator, the 21150 returns a target abort. See Section 7.4 for a description of system error conditions.

4.8.4 Target Termination Initiated by the 21150

The 21150 can return a target retry, target disconnect, or target abort to an initiator for reasons other than detection of that condition at the target interface.

4.8.4.1 Target Retry

The 21150 returns a target retry to the initiator when it cannot accept write data or return read data as a result of internal conditions. The 21150 returns a target retry to an initiator when any of the following conditions is met:

  • For delayed write transactions: — The transaction is being entered into the delayed transaction queue. — The transaction has already been entered into the delayed transaction queue, but target response has not yet been received. — Target response has been received but has not progressed to the head of the return queue. — The delayed transaction queue is full, and the transaction cannot be queued. — A transaction with the same address and command has been queued. — A locked sequence is being propagated across the 21150, and the write transaction is not a locked transaction.
  • For delayed read transactions: — The transaction is being entered into the delayed transaction queue. — The read request has already been queued, but read data is not yet available. — Data has been read from the target, but it is not yet at the head of the read data queue, or a posted write transaction precedes it. — The delayed transaction queue is full, and the transaction cannot be queued. — A delayed read request with the same address and bus command has already been queued. — A locked sequence is being propagated across the 21150, and the read transaction is not a locked transaction. — The 21150 is currently discarding previously prefetched read data.
  • For posted write transactions: — The posted write data buffer does not have enough space for address and at least 8 Dwords of write data. — A locked sequence is being propagated across the 21150, and the write transaction is not a locked transaction.

54 Preliminary Datasheet

When a target retry is returned to the initiator of a delayed transaction, the initiator must repeat the transaction with the same address and bus command as well as the data if this is a write transaction, within the time frame specified by the master timeout value; otherwise, the transaction is discarded from the 21150 buffers.

4.8.4.2 Target Disconnect

The 21150 returns a target disconnect to an initiator when one of the following conditions is met:

  • The 21150 hits an internal address boundary
  • The 21150 cannot accept any more write data
  • The 21150 has no more read data to deliver See Section 4.5.4 for a description of write address boundaries, and Section 4.6.3 for a description of read address boundaries.

4.8.4.3 Target Abort

The 21150 returns a target abort to an initiator when one of the following conditions is met:

  • The 21150 is returning a target abort from the intended target.
  • The 21150 is unable to obtain delayed read data from the target or to deliver delayed write data to the target after 2 24attempts. When the 21150 returns a target abort to the initiator, it sets the signaled target abort bit in the status register corresponding to the initiator interface.

5.0 Address Decoding

The 21150 uses three address ranges that control I/O and memory transaction forwarding. These address ranges are defined by base and limit address registers in the 21150 configuration space. This chapter describes these address ranges, as well as ISA-mode and VGA-addressing support.

5.1 Address Ranges

The 21150 uses the following address ranges that determine which I/O and memory transactions are forwarded from the primary PCI bus to the secondary PCI bus, and from the secondary bus to the primary bus:

  • One 32-bit I/O address range
  • One 32-bit memory-mapped I/O (nonprefetchable memory)
  • One 64-bit prefetchable memory address range Transactions falling within these ranges are forwarded downstream from the primary PCI bus to the secondary PCI bus. Transactions falling outside these ranges are forwarded upstream from the secondary PCI bus to the primary PCI bus. The 21150 uses a flat address space; that is, it does not perform any address translations. The address space has no “gaps”—addresses that are not marked for downstream forwarding are always forwarded upstream.

5.2 I/O Address Decoding

The 21150 uses the following mechanisms that are defined in the 21150 configuration space to specify the I/O address space for downstream and upstream forwarding:

  • I/O base and limit address registers
  • The ISA enable bit
  • The VGA mode bit
  • The VGA snoop bit This section provides information on the I/O address registers and ISA mode.Section 5.4 provides information on the VGA modes. To enable downstream forwarding of I/O transactions, the I/O enable bit must be set in the command register in 21150 configuration space. If the I/O enable bit is not set, all I/O transactions initiated on the primary bus are ignored. To enable upstream forwarding of I/O transactions, the master enable bit must be set in the command register. If the master enable bit is not set, the 21150 ignores all I/O and memory transactions initiated on the secondary bus. Setting the master enable bit also allows upstream forwarding of memory transactions.

secondary bus, the 21150 response to the secondary bus I/O transactions is not predictable. the primary and secondary PCI buses are idle.

5.2.1 I/O Base and Limit Address Registers

and no I/O transactions are forwarded downstream. Figure 15 illustrates transaction forwarding within and outside the I/O address range. maximum I/O range is 4GB in size. of the base address are assumed to be 0, which naturally aligns the base address to a 4KB boundary. Figure 15. I/O Transaction Forwarding Using Base and Limit Addresses

The 16 bits contained in the I/O base upper 16 bits register at configuration offset 30h define AD<31:16> of the I/O base address. All 16 bits are read/write. After primary bus reset or chip reset, the value of the I/O base address is initialized to 0000 0000h. The I/O limit register consists of an 8-bit field at configuration offset 1Dh and a 16-bit field at offset 32h. The top 4 bits of the 8-bit field define bits <15:12> of the I/O limit address. The bottom 4 bits read only as 1h to indicate that 32-bit I/O addressing is supported. Bits <11:0> of the limit address are assumed to be FFFh, which naturally aligns the limit address to the top of a 4KB I/O address block. The 16 bits contained in the I/O limit upper 16 bits register at configuration offset 32h define AD<31:16> of the I/O limit address. All 16 bits are read/write. After primary bus reset or chip reset, the value of the I/O limit address is reset to 0000 0FFFh. Note: The initial states of the I/O base and I/O limit address registers define an I/O range of 0000 0000h to 0000 0FFFh, which is the bottom 4KB of I/O space. Write these registers with their appropriate values before setting either the I/O enable bit or the master enable bit in the command register in configuration space.

5.2.2 ISA Mode

The 21150 supports ISA mode by providing an ISA enable bit in the bridge control register in configuration space. ISA mode modifies the response of the 21150 inside the I/O address range in order to support mapping of I/O space in the presence of an ISA bus in the system. This bit only affects the response of the 21150 when the transaction falls inside the address range defined by the I/O base and limit address registers, and only when this address also falls inside the first 64KB of I/O space (address bits <31:16> are 0000h). When the ISA enable bit is set, the 21150 does not forward downstream any I/O transactions addressing the top 768 bytes of each aligned 1KB block. Only those transactions addressing the bottom 256 bytes of an aligned 1KB block inside the base and limit I/O address range are forwarded downstream. Transactions above the 64KB I/O address boundary are forwarded as defined by the address range defined by the I/O base and limit registers. Accordingly, if the ISA enable bit is set, the 21150 forwards upstream those I/O transactions addressing the top 768 bytes of each aligned 1KB block within the first 64KB of I/O space. The master enable bit in the command configuration register must also be set to enable upstream forwarding. All other I/O transactions initiated on the secondary bus are forwarded upstream only if they fall outside the I/O address range. When the ISA enable bit is set, devices downstream of the 21150 can have I/O space mapped into the first 256 bytes of each 1KB chunk below the 64KB boundary, or anywhere in I/O space above the 64KB boundary. Figure 16 illustrates I/O forwarding when the ISA enable bit is set.

5.3 Memory Address Decoding

  • Memory-mapped I/O base and limit address registers
  • Prefetchable memory base and limit address registers
  • VGA mode This section describes the first two mechanisms. Section 5.4.1 describes VGA mode. To enable downstream forwarding of memory transactions, the memory enable bit must be set in the command register in 21150 configuration space. To enable upstream forwarding of memory transactions, the master enable bit must be set in the command register. Setting the master enable bit also allows upstream forwarding of I/O transactions. Caution: If any 21150 configuration state affecting memory transaction forwarding is changed by a configuration write operation on the primary bus at the same time that memory transactions are ongoing on the secondary bus, 21150 response to the secondary bus memory transactions is not predictable. Configure the memory-mapped I/O base and limit address registers, prefetchable memory base and limit address registers, and VGA mode bit before setting the memory enable and

Figure 16. I/O Transaction Forwarding in ISA Mode LJ-04637.AI5

master enable bits, and change them subsequently only when the primary and secondary PCI buses are idle.

5.3.1 Memory-Mapped I/O Base and Limit Address Registers

Memory-mapped I/O is also referred to as nonprefetchable memory. Memory addresses that cannot automatically be prefetched but that can conditionally prefetch based on command type should be mapped into this space. Read transactions to nonprefetchable space may exhibit side effects; this space may have non-memory-like behavior. The 21150 prefetches in this space only if the memory read line or memory read multiple commands are used; transactions using the memory read command are limited to a single data transfer. The memory-mapped I/O base address and memory-mapped I/O limit address registers define an address range that the 21150 uses to determine when to forward memory commands. The 21150 forwards a memory transaction from the primary to the secondary interface if the transaction address falls within the memory-mapped I/O address range. The 21150 ignores memory transactions initiated on the secondary interface that fall into this address range. Any transactions that fall outside this address range are ignored on the primary interface and are forwarded upstream from the secondary interface (provided that they do not fall into the prefetchable memory range or are not forwarded downstream by the VGA mechanism). The memory-mapped I/O range supports 32-bit addressing only. The PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture Specification does not provide for 64-bit addressing in the memory-mapped I/O space. The memory-mapped I/O address range has a granularity and alignment of 1MB. The maximum memory-mapped I/O address range is 4GB. The memory-mapped I/O address range is defined by a 16-bit memory-mapped I/O base address register at configuration offset 20h and by a 16-bit memory-mapped I/O limit address register at offset 22h. The top 12 bits of each of these registers correspond to bits <31:20> of the memory address. The low 4 bits are hardwired to 0. The low 20 bits of the memory-mapped I/O base address are assumed to be 0 0000h, which results in a natural alignment to a 1MB boundary. The low 20 bits of the memory-mapped I/O limit address are assumed to be F FFFFh, which results in an alignment to the top of a 1MB block. Note: The initial state of the memory-mapped I/O base address register is 0000 0000h.The initial state of the memory-mapped I/O limit address register is 000F FFFFh. Note that the initial states of these registers define a memory-mapped I/O range at the bottom 1MB block of memory. Write these registers with their appropriate values before setting either the memory enable bit or the master enable bit in the command register in configuration space. To turn off the memory-mapped I/O address range, write the memory-mapped I/O base address register with a value greater than that of the memory-mapped I/O limit address register. Figure 17 shows how transactions are forwarded using both the memory-mapped I/O range and the prefetchable memory range.

commands in this address space. into the memory-mapped I/O range or are not forwarded by the VGA mechanism). upper 32 bits register must be 0 in order to pass any single address cycle transactions downstream. Section 5.3.3 further describes 64-bit addressing support. Figure 17. Memory Transaction Forwarding Using Base and Limit Registers

The prefetchable memory address range has a granularity and alignment of 1MB. The maximum memory address range is 4GB when 32-bit addressing is used, and 264 bytes when 64-bit addressing is used. The prefetchable memory address range is defined by a 16-bit prefetchable memory base address register at configuration offset 24h and by a 16-bit prefetchable memory limit address register at offset 28h. The top 12 bits of each of these registers correspond to bits <31:20> of the memory address. The low 4 bits are hardwired to 1h, indicating 64-bit address support. The low 20 bits of the prefetchable memory base address are assumed to be 0 0000h, which results in a natural alignment to a 1MB boundary. The low 20 bits of the prefetchable memory limit address are assumed to be F FFFFh, which results in an alignment to the top of a 1MB block. Note: The initial state of the prefetchable memory base address register is 0000 0000h. The initial state of the prefetchable memory limit address register is 000F FFFFh. Note that the initial states of these registers define a prefetchable memory range at the bottom 1MB block of memory. Write these registers with their appropriate values before setting either the memory enable bit or the master enable bit in the command register in configuration space. To turn off the prefetchable memory address range, write the prefetchable memory base address register with a value greater than that of the prefetchable memory limit address register. The entire base value must be greater than the entire limit value, meaning that the upper 32 bits must be considered. Therefore, to disable the address range, the upper 32 bits registers can both be set to the same value, while the lower base register is set greater than the lower limit register; otherwise, the upper 32-bit base must be greater than the upper 32-bit limit.

5.3.3 Prefetchable Memory 64-Bit Addressing Registers

The 21150 supports 64-bit memory address decoding for forwarding of dual address memory transactions. The dual address cycle is used to support 64-bit addressing. The first address phase of a dual address transaction contains the low 32 address bits, and the second address phase contains the high 32 address bits. During a dual address cycle transaction, the upper 32 bits must never be 0—use the single address cycle commands for transactions addressing the first 4GB of memory space. The 21150 implements the prefetchable memory base address upper 32 bits register and the prefetchable memory limit address upper 32 bits register to define a prefetchable memory address range greater than 4GB. The prefetchable address space can then be defined in three different ways:

  • Residing entirely in the first 4GB of memory
  • Residing entirely above the first 4GB of memory
  • Crossing the first 4GB memory boundary If the prefetchable memory space on the secondary interface resides entirely in the first 4GB of memory, both upper 32 bits registers must be set to 0. The 21150 ignores all dual address cycle transactions initiated on the primary interface and forwards all dual address transactions initiated on the secondary interface upstream. If the secondary interface prefetchable memory space resides entirely above the first 4GB of memory, both the prefetchable memory base address upper 32 bits register and the prefetchable memory limit address upper 32 bits register must be initialized to nonzero values. The 21150 ignores all single address memory transactions initiated on the primary interface and forwards all single address memory transactions initiated on the secondary interface upstream (unless they fall

62 Preliminary Datasheet

within the memory-mapped I/O or VGA memory range). A dual address memory transaction is forwarded downstream from the primary interface if it falls within the address range defined by the prefetchable memory base address, prefetchable memory base address upper 32 bits, prefetchable memory limit address, and prefetchable memory limit address upper 32 bits registers. If the dual address transaction initiated on the secondary interface falls outside this address range, it is forwarded upstream to the primary interface. The 21150 does not respond to a dual address transaction initiated on the primary interface that falls outside this address range, or to a dual address transaction initiated on the secondary interface that falls within the address range. If the secondary interface prefetchable memory space straddles the first 4GB address boundary, the prefetchable memory base address upper 32 bits register is set to 0, while the prefetchable memory limit address upper 32 bits register is initialized to a nonzero value. Single address cycle memory transactions are compared to the prefetchable memory base address register only. A transaction initiated on the primary interface is forwarded downstream if the address is greater than or equal to the base address. A transaction initiated on the secondary interface is forwarded upstream if the address is less than the base address. Dual address transactions are compared to the prefetchable memory limit address and the prefetchable memory limit address upper 32 bits registers. If the address of the dual address transaction is less than or equal to the limit, the transaction is forwarded downstream from the primary interface and is ignored on the secondary interface. If the address of the dual address transaction is greater than this limit, the transaction is ignored on the primary interface and is forwarded upstream from the secondary interface. The prefetchable memory base address upper 32 bits register is located at configuration Dword offset 28h, and the prefetchable memory limit address upper 32 bits register is located at configuration Dword offset 2Ch. Both registers are reset to 0. See Figure 17 for an illustration of how transactions are forwarded using both the memory-mapped I/O range and the prefetchable memory range.

5.4 VGA Support

The 21150 provides two modes for VGA support:

  • VGA mode, supporting VGA-compatible addressing
  • VGA snoop mode, supporting VGA palette forwarding

5.4.1 VGA Mode

When a VGA-compatible device exists downstream from the 21150, set the VGA mode bit in the bridge control register in configuration space to enable VGA mode. When the 21150 is operating in VGA mode, it forwards downstream those transactions addressing the VGA frame buffer memory and VGA I/O registers, regardless of the values of the 21150 base and limit address registers. The 21150 ignores transactions initiated on the secondary interface addressing these locations. The VGA frame buffer consists of the following memory address range: 000A 0000h—000B FFFFh Read transactions to frame buffer memory are treated as nonprefetchable. The 21150 requests only a single data transfer from the target, and read byte enable bits are forwarded to the target bus.

The VGA I/O addresses consist of the following I/O addresses:

  • 3B0h–3BBh
  • 3C0h–3DFh These I/O addresses are aliased every 1KB throughout the first 64KB of I/O space. This means that address bits <15:10> are not decoded and can be any value, while address bits <31:16> must be all 0s. VGA BIOS addresses starting at C0000h are not decoded in VGA mode.

5.4.2 VGA Snoop Mode

The 21150 provides VGA snoop mode, allowing for VGA palette write transactions to be forwarded downstream. This mode is used when a graphics device downstream from the 21150 needs to snoop or respond to VGA palette write transactions. To enable the mode, set the VGA snoop bit in the command register in configuration space. Note that the 21150 claims VGA palette write transactions by asserting DEVSEL# in VGA snoop mode. When the VGA snoop bit is set, the 21150 forwards downstream transactions with the following I/O addresses:

  • 3C6h
  • 3C8h
  • 3C9h Note that these addresses are also forwarded as part of the VGA compatibility mode previously described. Again, address bits <15:10> are not decoded, while address bits <31:16> must be equal to 0, which means that these addresses are aliased every 1KB throughout the first 64KB of I/O space. Note: If both the VGA mode bit and the VGA snoop bit are set, the 21150 behaves in the same way as if only the VGA mode bit were set.

6.0 Transaction Ordering

To maintain data coherency and consistency, the 21150 complies with the ordering rules set forth in the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.1, for transactions crossing the bridge. This chapter describes the ordering rules that control transaction forwarding across the 21150. For a more detailed discussion of transaction ordering, see Appendix E of the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.1.

6.1 Transactions Governed by Ordering Rules

Ordering relationships are established for the following classes of transactions crossing the 21150:

  • Posted write transactions, comprised of memory write and memory write and invalidate transactions Posted write transactions complete at the source before they complete at the destination; that is, data is written into intermediate data buffers before it reaches the target.
  • Delayed write request transactions, comprised of I/O write and configuration write transactions Delayed write requests are terminated by target retry on the initiator bus and are queued in the delayed transaction queue. A delayed write transaction must complete on the target bus before it completes on the initiator bus.
  • Delayed write completion transactions, also comprised of I/O write and configuration write transactions Delayed write completion transactions have been completed on the target bus, and the target response is queued in the 21150 buffers. A delayed write completion transaction proceeds in the direction opposite that of the original delayed write request; that is, a delayed write completion transaction proceeds from the target bus to the initiator bus.
  • Delayed read request transactions, comprised of all memory read, I/O read, and configuration read transactions Delayed read requests are terminated by target retry on the initiator bus and are queued in the delayed transaction queue.
  • Delayed read completion transactions, comprised of all memory read, I/O read, and configuration read transactions Delayed read completion transactions have been completed on the target bus, and the read data has been queued in the 21150 read data buffers. A delayed read completion transaction proceeds in the direction opposite that of the original delayed read request; that is, a delayed read completion transaction proceeds from the target bus to the initiator bus. The 21150 does not combine or merge write transactions:
  • The 21150 does not combine separate write transactions into a single write transaction—this optimization is best implemented in the originating master.
  • The 21150 does not merge bytes on separate masked write transactions to the same Dword address—this optimization is also best implemented in the originating master.
  • The 21150 does not collapse sequential write transactions to the same address into asingle write transaction—the PCI Local Bus Specification does not permit this combining of transactions.

66 Preliminary Datasheet

6.2 General Ordering Guidelines

transactions cross the 21150.

  • The ordering relationship of a transaction with respect to other transactions is determined when the transaction completes, that is, when a transaction ends with a termination other than target retry.
  • Requests terminated with target retry can be accepted and completed in any order with respect to other transactions that have been terminated with target retry. If the order of completion of delayed requests is important, the initiator should not start a second delayed transaction until the first one has been completed. If more than one delayed transaction is initiated, the initiator should repeat all the delayed transaction requests, using some fairness algorithm. Repeating a delayed transaction cannot be contingent on completion of another delayed transaction; otherwise, a deadlock can occur.
  • Write transactions flowing in one direction have no ordering requirements with respect to write transactions flowing in the other direction. The 21150 can accept posted write transactions on both interfaces at the same time, as well as initiate posted write transactions on both interfaces at the same time.
  • The acceptance of a posted memory write transaction as a target can never be contingent on the completion of a nonlocked, nonposted transaction as a master. This is true of the 21150 and must also be true of other bus agents; otherwise, a deadlock can occur.
  • The 21150 accepts posted write transactions, regardless of the state of completion of any delayed transactions being forwarded across the 21150.

6.3 Ordering Rules

  1. Posted write transactions must complete on the target bus in the order in which they were

  1. A delayed read completion must “pull” ahead of previously queued posted write data traveling

  1. Posted write transactions must be given opportunities to pass delayed read and write requests

6.4 Data Synchronization

Data synchronization refers to the relationship between interrupt signaling and data delivery. The PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.1, provides the following alternative methods for synchronizing data and interrupts:

  • The device signaling the interrupt performs a read of the data just written (software).
  • The device driver performs a read operation to any register in the interrupting device before accessing data written by the device (software).
  • System hardware guarantees that write buffers are flushed before interrupts are forwarded. The 21150 does not have a hardware mechanism to guarantee data synchronization for posted write transactions. Therefore, all posted write transactions must be followed by a read operation, either from the device to the location just written (or some other location along the same path), or from the device driver to one of the device registers.

7.0 Error Handling

The 21150 checks, forwards, and generates parity on both the primary and secondary interfaces. To maintain transparency, the 21150 always tries to forward the existing parity condition on one bus to the other bus, along with address and data. The 21150 always attempts to be transparent when reporting errors, but this is not always possible, given the presence of posted data and delayed transactions. To support error reporting on the PCI bus, the 21150 implements the following:

  • PERR# and SERR# signals on both the primary and secondary interfaces
  • Primary status and secondary status registers
  • The device-specific p_serr_l event disable register
  • The device-specific p_serr_l status register This chapter provides detailed information about how the 21150 handles errors. It also describes error status reporting and error operation disabling.

7.1 Address Parity Errors

The 21150 checks address parity for all transactions on both buses, for all address and all bus commands. When the 21150 detects an address parity error on the primary interface, the following events occur:

  • If the parity error response bit is set in the command register, the 21150 does not claim the transaction with p_devsel_l; this may allow the transaction to terminate in a master abort. If the parity error response bit is not set, the 21150 proceeds normally and accepts the transaction if it is directed to or across the 21150.
  • The 21150 sets the detected parity error bit in the status register.
  • The 21150 asserts p_serr_l and sets the signaled system error bit in the status register, if both of the following conditions are met: — The SERR# enable bit is set in the command register. — The parity error response bit is set in the command register. When the 21150 detects an address parity error on the secondary interface, the following events occur:
  • If the parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register, the 21150 does not claim the transaction with s_devsel_l; this may allow the transaction to terminate in a master abort. If the parity error response bit is not set, the 21150 proceeds normally and accepts the transaction if it is directed to or across the 21150.
  • The 21150 sets the detected parity error bit in the secondary status register.

70 Preliminary Datasheet

  • The 21150 asserts p_serr_l and sets the signaled system error bit in the status register, if both of the following conditions are met: — The SERR# enable bit is set in the command register. — The parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register.

7.2 Data Parity Errors

When forwarding transactions, the 21150 attempts to pass the data parity condition from one interface to the other unchanged, whenever possible, to allow the master and target devices to handle the error condition. The following sections describe, for each type of transaction, the sequence of events that occurs when a parity error is detected and the way in which the parity condition is forwarded across the 21150.

7.2.1 Configuration Write Transactions to 21150 Configuration Space

When the 21150 detects a data parity error during a Type 0 configuration write transaction to 21150 configuration space, the following events occur:

  • If the parity error response bit is set in the command register, the 21150 asserts p_trdy_l and writes the data to the configuration register. The 21150 also asserts p_perr_l. If the parity error response bit is not set, the 21150 does not assert p_perr_l.
  • The 21150 sets the detected parity error bit in the status register, regardless of the state of the parity error response bit.

7.2.2 Read Transactions

When the 21150 detects a parity error during a read transaction, the target drives data and data parity, and the initiator checks parity and conditionally asserts PERR#. For downstream transactions, when the 21150 detects a read data parity error on the secondary bus, the following events occur:

  • The 21150 asserts s_perr_l two cycles following the data transfer, if the secondary interface parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register.
  • The 21150 sets the detected parity error bit in the secondary status register.
  • The 21150 sets the data parity detected bit in the secondary status register, if the secondary interface parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register.
  • The 21150 forwards the bad parity with the data back to the initiator on the primary bus. If the data with the bad parity is prefetched and is not read by the initiator on the primary bus, the data is discarded and the data with bad parity is not returned to the initiator.
  • The 21150 completes the transaction normally. For upstream transactions, when the 21150 detects a read data parity error on the primary bus, the following events occur:
  • The 21150 asserts p_perr_l two cycles following the data transfer, if the primary interface parity error response bit is set in the command register
  • The 21150 sets the detected parity error bit in the primary status register.
  • The 21150 sets the data parity detected bit in the primary status register, if the primary interface parity error response bit is set in the command register.
  • The 21150 forwards the bad parity with the data back to the initiator on the secondary bus. If the data with the bad parity is prefetched and is not read by the initiator on the secondary bus, the data is discarded and the data with bad parity is not returned to the initiator.
  • The 21150 completes the transaction normally. The 21150 returns to the initiator the data and parity that was received from the target. When the initiator detects a parity error on this read data and is enabled to report it, the initiator asserts PERR# two cycles after the data transfer occurs. It is assumed that the initiator takes responsibility for handling a parity error condition; therefore, when the 21150 detects PERR# asserted while returning read data to the initiator, the 21150 does not take any further action and completes the transaction normally.

7.2.3 Delayed Write Transactions

When the 21150 detects a data parity error during a delayed write transaction, the initiator drives data and data parity, and the target checks parity and conditionally asserts PERR#. For delayed write transactions, a parity error can occur at the following times:

  • During the original delayed write request transaction
  • When the initiator repeats the delayed write request transaction
  • When the 21150 completes the delayed write transaction to the target When a delayed write transaction is normally queued, the address, command, address parity, data, byte enable bits, and data parity are all captured and a target retry is returned to the initiator. When the 21150 detects a parity error on the write data for the initial delayed write request transaction, the following events occur:
  • If the parity error response bit corresponding to the initiator bus is set, the 21150 asserts TRDY# to the initiator and the transaction is not queued. If multiple data phases are requested, STOP# is also asserted to cause a target disconnect. Two cycles after the data transfer, the 21150 also asserts PERR#. If the parity error response bit is not set, the 21150 returns a target retry and queues the transaction as usual. Signal PERR# is not asserted. In this case, the initiator repeats the transaction.
  • The 21150 sets the detected parity error bit in the status register corresponding to the initiator bus, regardless of the state of the parity error response bit. Note: If parity checking is turned off and data parity errors have occurred for queued or subsequent delayed write transactions on the initiator bus, it is possible that the initiator’s reattempts of the write transaction may not match the original queued delayed write information contained in the delayed transaction queue. In this case, a master timeout condition may occur, possibly resulting in a system error (p_serr_l asserted). For downstream transactions, when the 21150 is delivering data to the target on the secondary bus and s_perr_l is asserted by the target, the following events occur:

72 Preliminary Datasheet

  • The 21150 sets the secondary interface data parity detected bit in the secondary status register, if the secondary parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register.
  • The 21150 captures the parity error condition to forward it back to the initiator on the primary bus. Similarly, for upstream transactions, when the 21150 is delivering data to the target on the primary bus and p_perr_l is asserted by the target, the following events occur:
  • The 21150 sets the primary interface data parity detected bit in the status register, if the primary parity error response bit is set in the command register.
  • The 21150 captures the parity error condition to forward it back to the initiator on the secondary bus. A delayed write transaction is completed on the initiator bus when the initiator repeats the write transaction with the same address, command, data, and byte enable bits as the delayed write command that is at the head of the posted data queue. Note that the parity bit is not compared when determining whether the transaction matches those in the delayed transaction queues. Two cases must be considered:
  • When parity error is detected on the initiator bus on a subsequent reattempt of the transaction and was not detected on the target bus.
  • When parity error is forwarded back from the target bus. For downstream delayed write transactions, when the parity error is detected on the initiator bus and the 21150 has write status to return, the following events occur:
  • The 21150 first asserts p_trdy_l and then asserts p_perr_l two cycles later, if the primary interface parity error response bit is set in the command register.
  • The 21150 sets the primary interface parity error detected bit in the status register.
  • Because there was not an exact data and parity match, the write status is not returned and the transaction remains in the queue. Similarly, for upstream delayed write transactions, when the parity error is detected on the initiator bus and the 21150 has write status to return, the following events occur:
  • The 21150 first asserts s_trdy_l and then asserts s_perr_l two cycles later, if the secondary interface parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register.
  • The 21150 sets the secondary interface parity error detected bit in the secondary status register.
  • Because there was not an exact data and parity match, the write status is not returned and the transaction remains in the queue. For downstream transactions, in the case where the parity error is being passed back from the target bus and the parity error condition was not originally detected on the initiator bus, the following events occur:
  • The 21150 asserts p_perr_l two cycles after the data transfer, if both of the following are true: — The primary interface parity error response bit is set in the command register. — The secondary interface parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register.
  • The 21150 completes the transaction normally.

For upstream transactions, in the case where the parity error is being passed back from the target bus and the initiator bus, the following events occur:

  • The 21150 asserts s_perr_l two cycles after the data transfer, if both of the following are true: — The primary interface parity error response bit is set in the command register. — The secondary interface parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register.
  • The 21150 completes the transaction normally.

7.2.4 Posted Write Transactions

During downstream posted write transactions, when the 21150, responding as a target, detects a data parity error on the initiator (primary) bus, the following events occur:

  • The 21150 asserts p_perr_l two cycles after the data transfer, if the primary interface parity error response bit is set in the command register.
  • The 21150 sets the primary interface parity error detected bit in the status register.
  • The 21150 captures and forwards the bad parity condition to the secondary bus.
  • The 21150 completes the transaction normally. Similarly, during upstream posted write transactions, when the 21150, responding as a target, detects a data parity error on the initiator (secondary) bus, the following events occur:
  • The 21150 asserts s_perr_l two cycles after the data transfer, if the secondary interface parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register.
  • The 21150 sets the secondary interface parity error detected bit in the secondary status register.
  • The 21150 captures and forwards the bad parity condition to the primary bus.
  • The 21150 completes the transaction normally. During downstream write transactions, when a data parity error is reported on the target (secondary) bus by the target’s assertion of s_perr_l, the following events occur:
  • The 21150 sets the data parity detected bit in the secondary status register, if the secondary interface parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register.
  • The 21150 asserts p_serr_l and sets the signaled system error bit in the status register, if all of the following conditions are met: — The SERR# enable bit is set in the command register. — The device-specific p_serr_l disable bit for posted write parity errors is not set. — The secondary interface parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register. — The primary interface parity error response bit is set in the command register. — The 21150 did not detect the parity error on the primary (initiator) bus; that is, the parity error was not forwarded from the primary bus. During upstream write transactions, when a data parity error is reported on the target (primary) bus by the target’s assertion of p_perr_l, the following events occur:
  • The 21150 sets the data parity detected bit in the status register, if the primary interface parity error response bit is set in the command register.

74 Preliminary Datasheet

  • The 21150 asserts p_serr_l and sets the signaled system error bit in the status register, if all of the following conditions are met: — The SERR# enable bit is set in the command register. — The secondary interface parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register. — The primary interface parity error response bit is set in the command register. — The 21150 did not detect the parity error on the secondary (initiator) bus; that is, the parity error was not forwarded from the secondary bus. The assertion of p_serr_l is used to signal the parity error condition in the case where the initiator does not know that the error occurred. Because the data has already been delivered with no errors, there is no other way to signal this information back to the initiator. If the parity error was forwarded from the initiating bus to the target bus, p_serr_l is not asserted.

  • For the 21150 to assert p_serr_l for any reason, the SERR# enable bit must be set in the command register.
  • Whenever the 21150 asserts p_serr_l, the 21150 must also set the signaled system error bit in the status register. In compliance with the PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture Specification, the 21150 asserts p_serr_l when it detects the secondary SERR# input, s_serr_l, asserted and the SERR# forward enable bit is set in the bridge control register. In addition, the 21150 also sets the received system error bit in the secondary status register. The 21150 also conditionally asserts p_serr_l for any of the following reasons:
  • Target abort detected during posted write transaction
  • Master abort detected during posted write transaction
  • Posted write data discarded after 224 attempts to deliver (224 target retries received)

  • Parity error reported on target bus during posted write transaction (see previous section)
  • Delayed write data discarded after 224 attempts to deliver (224 target retries received)
  • Delayed read data cannot be transferred from target after 224 attempts (224 target retries received)
  • Master timeout on delayed transaction The device-specific p_serr_l status register reports the reason for the 21150’s assertion of p_serr_l. Most of these events have additional device-specific disable bits in the p_serr_l event disable register that make it possible to mask out p_serr_l assertion for specific events. The master timeout condition has a SERR# enable bit for that event in the bridge control register and therefore does not have a device-specific disable bit.

8.0 Exclusive Access

This chapter describes the use of the LOCK# signal to implement exclusive access to a target for transactions that cross the 21150.

8.1 Concurrent Locks

The primary and secondary bus lock mechanisms operate concurrently except when a locked transaction crosses the 21150. A primary master can lock a primary target without affecting the status of the lock on the secondary bus, and vice versa. This means that a primary master can lock a primary target at the same time that a secondary master locks a secondary target.

8.2 Acquiring Exclusive Access Across the 21150

For any PCI bus, before acquiring access to the LOCK# signal and starting a series of locked transactions, the initiator must first check that both of the following conditions are met:

  • The PCI bus must be idle.
  • The LOCK# signal must be deasserted. The initiator leaves the LOCK# signal deasserted during the address phase (only the first address phase of a dual address transaction) and asserts LOCK# one clock cycle later. Once a data transfer is completed from the target, the target lock has been achieved. Locked transactions can cross the 21150 only in the downstream direction, from the primary bus to the secondary bus. When the target resides on another PCI bus, the master must acquire not only the lock on its own PCI bus but also the lock on every bus between its bus and the target’s bus. When the 21150 detects, on the primary bus, an initial locked transaction intended for a target on the secondary bus, the 21150 samples the address, transaction type, byte enable bits, and parity, as described in Section 4.6.4. It also samples the lock signal. Because a target retry is signaled to the initiator, the initiator must relinquish the lock on the primary bus, and therefore the lock is not yet established. The first locked transaction must be a read transaction. Subsequent locked transactions can be read or write transactions. Posted memory write transactions that are a part of the locked transaction sequence are still posted. Memory read transactions that are a part of the locked transaction sequence are not prefetched. When the locked delayed read request is queued, the 21150 does not queue any more transactions until the locked sequence is finished. The 21150 signals a target retry to all transactions initiated subsequent to the locked read transaction that are intended for targets on the other side of the 21150. The 21150 allows any transactions queued before the locked transaction to complete before initiating the locked transaction. When the locked delayed read request transaction moves to the head of the delayed transaction queue, the 21150 initiates the transaction as a locked read transaction by deasserting s_lock_l on the secondary bus during the first address phase, and by asserting s_lock_l one cycle later. If

82 Preliminary Datasheet

s_lock_l is already asserted (used by another initiator), the 21150 waits to request access to the secondary bus until s_lock_l is sampled deasserted when the secondary bus is idle. Note that the existing lock on the secondary bus could not have crossed the 21150; otherwise, the pending queued locked transaction would not have been queued. When the 21150 is able to complete a data transfer with the locked read transaction, the lock is established on the secondary bus. When the initiator repeats the locked read transaction on the primary bus with the same address, transaction type, and byte enable bits, the 21150 transfers the read data back to the initiator, and the lock is then also established on the primary bus. For the 21150 to recognize and respond to the initiator, the initiator’s subsequent attempts of the read transaction must use the locked transaction sequence (deassert p_lock_l during address phase, and assert p_lock_l one cycle later). If the LOCK# sequence is not used in subsequent attempts, a master timeout condition may result. When a master timeout condition occurs, p_serr_l is conditionally asserted (see Section 7.4), the read data and queued read transaction are discarded, and the s_lock_l signal is deasserted on the secondary bus. Once the intended target has been locked, any subsequent locked transactions initiated on the primary bus that are forwarded by the 21150 are driven as locked transactions on the secondary bus. When the 21150 receives a target abort or a master abort in response to the delayed locked read transaction, a target abort is returned to the initiator, and no locks are established on either the target or the initiator bus. The 21150 resumes forwarding unlocked transactions in both directions. When the 21150 detects, on the secondary bus, a locked delayed transaction request intended for a target on the primary bus, the 21150 queues and forwards the transaction as an unlocked transaction. The 21150 ignores s_lock_l for upstream transactions and initiates all upstream transactions as unlocked transactions.

8.3 Ending Exclusive Access

After the lock has been acquired on both the primary and secondary buses, the 21150 must maintain the lock on the secondary (target) bus for any subsequent locked transactions until the initiator relinquishes the lock. The only time a target retry causes the lock to be relinquished is on the first transaction of a locked sequence. On subsequent transactions in the sequence, the target retry has no effect on the status of the lock signal. An established target lock is maintained until the initiator relinquishes the lock. The 21150 does not know whether the current transaction is the last one in a sequence of locked transactions until the initiator deasserts the p_lock_l signal at the end of the transaction. When the last locked transaction is a delayed transaction, the 21150 has already completed the transaction on the secondary bus. In this case, as soon as the 21150 detects that the initiator has relinquished the p_lock_l signal by sampling it in the deasserted state while p_frame_l is deasserted, the 21150 deasserts the s_lock_l signal on the secondary bus as soon as possible. Because of this behavior, s_lock_l may not be deasserted until several cycles after the last locked transaction has been completed on the secondary bus. As soon as the 21150 has deasserted s_lock_l to indicate the end of a sequence of locked transactions, it resumes forwarding unlocked transactions.

When the last locked transaction is a posted write transaction, the 21150 deasserts s_lock_l on the secondary bus at the end of the transaction because the lock was relinquished at the end of the write transaction on the primary bus. When the 21150 receives a target abort or a master abort in response to a locked delayed transaction, the 21150 returns a target abort when the initiator repeats the locked transaction. The initiator must then deassert p_lock_l at the end of the transaction. The 21150 sets the appropriate status bits, flagging the abnormal target termination condition (see Section 4.8). Normal forwarding of unlocked posted and delayed transactions is resumed. When the 21150 receives a target abort or a master abort in response to a locked posted write transaction, the 21150 cannot pass back that status to the initiator. The 21150 asserts p_serr_l when a target abort or a master abort is received during a locked posted write transaction, if the SERR# enable bit is set in the command register. Signal p_serr_l is asserted for the master abort condition if the master abort mode bit is set in the bridge control register (see Section 7.4).

9.0 PCI Bus Arbitration

The 21150 must arbitrate for use of the primary bus when forwarding upstream transactions, and for use of the secondary bus when forwarding downstream transactions. The arbiter for the primary bus resides external to the 21150, typically on the motherboard. For the secondary PCI bus, the 21150 implements an internal arbiter. This arbiter can be disabled, and an external arbiter can be used instead. This chapter describes primary and secondary bus arbitration.

9.1 Primary PCI Bus Arbitration

The 21150 implements a request output pin, p_req_l, and a grant input pin, p_gnt_l, for primary PCI bus arbitration. The 21150 asserts p_req_l when forwarding transactions upstream; that is, it acts as initiator on the primary PCI bus. As long as at least one pending transaction resides in the queues in the upstream direction, either posted write data or delayed transaction requests, the 21150 keeps p_req_l asserted. However, if a target retry, target disconnect, or a target abort is received in response to a transaction initiated by the 21150 on the primary PCI bus, the 21150 deasserts p_req_l for two PCI clock cycles. For posted write transactions (see Section 4.5.1), p_req_l is asserted one cycle after s_devsel_l is asserted. For delayed read and write requests, p_req_l is not asserted until the transaction request has been completely queued in the delayed transaction queue (target retry has been returned to the initiator) and is at the head of the delayed transaction queue. When p_gnt_l is asserted low by the primary bus arbiter after the 21150 has asserted p_req_l, the 21150 initiates a transaction on the primary bus during the next PCI clock cycle. When p_gnt_l is asserted to the 21150 when p_req_l is not asserted, the 21150 parks p_ad, p_cbe_l, and p_par by driving them to valid logic levels. When the primary bus is parked at the 21150 and the 21150 then has a transaction to initiate on the primary bus, the 21150 starts the transaction if p_gnt_l was asserted during the previous cycle.

9.2 Secondary PCI Bus Arbitration

The 21150 implements an internal secondary PCI bus arbiter. This arbiter supports nine external masters in addition to the 21150. The internal arbiter can be disabled, and an external arbiter can be used instead for secondary bus arbitration.

9.2.1 Secondary Bus Arbitration Using the Internal Arbiter

To use the internal arbiter, the secondary bus arbiter enable pin, s_cfn_l, must be tied low. The 21150 has nine secondary bus request input pins, s_req_l<8:0>, and nine secondary bus output grant pins, s_gnt_l<8:0>, to support external secondary bus masters. The 21150 secondary bus request and grant signals are connected internally to the arbiter and are not brought out to external pins when s_cfn_l is low.

86 Preliminary Datasheet

transaction. The master that initiated the last transaction now has the lowest priority in its group. receive any more grants until it deasserts its request for at least one PCI clock cycle. Figure 18. Secondary Arbiter Example

To prevent bus contention, if the secondary PCI bus is idle, the arbiter never asserts one grant signal in the same PCI cycle in which it deasserts another. It deasserts one grant, and then asserts the next grant, no earlier than one PCI clock cycle later. If the secondary PCI bus is busy, that is, either s_frame_l or s_irdy_l is asserted, the arbiter can deassert one grant and assert another grant during the same PCI clock cycle.

9.2.2 Secondary Bus Arbitration Using an External Arbiter

The internal arbiter is disabled when the secondary bus central function control pin, s_cfn_l, is pulled high. An external arbiter must then be used. When s_cfn_l is tied high, the 21150 reconfigures two pins to be external request and grant pins. The s_gnt_l<0> pin is reconfigured to be the 21150’s external request pin because it is an output. The s_req_l<0> pin is reconfigured to be the external grant pin because it is an input. When an external arbiter is used, the 21150 uses the s_gnt_l<0> pin to request the secondary bus. When the reconfigured s_req_l<0> pin is asserted low after the 21150 has asserted s_gnt_l<0>, the 21150 initiates a transaction on the secondary bus one cycle later. If s_req_l<0> is asserted and the 21150 has not asserted s_gnt_l<0>, the 21150 parks the s_ad, s_cbe_l, and s_par pins by driving them to valid logic levels. The unused secondary bus grant outputs, s_gnt_l<8:1>, are driven high. Unused secondary bus request inputs, s_req_l<8:1>, should be pulled high.

9.2.3 Bus Parking

Bus parking refers to driving the AD, C/BE#, and PAR lines to a known value while the bus is idle. In general, the device implementing the bus arbiter is responsible for parking the bus or assigning another device to park the bus. A device parks the bus when the bus is idle, its bus grant is asserted, and the device’s request is not asserted. The AD and C/BE# signals should be driven first, with the PAR signal driven one cycle later. The 21150 parks the primary bus only when p_gnt_l is asserted, p_req_l is deasserted, and the primary PCI bus is idle. When p_gnt_l is deasserted, the 21150 tristates the p_ad, p_cbe_l, and p_par signals on the next PCI clock cycle. If the 21150 is parking the primary PCI bus and wants to initiate a transaction on that bus, then the 21150 can start the transaction on the next PCI clock cycle by asserting p_frame_l if p_gnt_l is still asserted. If the internal secondary bus arbiter is enabled, the secondary bus is always parked at the last master that used the PCI bus. That is, the 21150 keeps the secondary bus grant asserted to a particular master until a new secondary bus request comes along. After reset, the 21150 parks the secondary bus at itself until transactions start occurring on the secondary bus. If the internal arbiter is disabled, the 21150 parks the secondary bus only when the reconfigured grant signal, s_req_l<0>, is asserted and the secondary bus is idle.

10.0 General-Purpose I/O Interface

The 21150 implements a 4-pin general-purpose I/O gpio interface. During normal operation, the gpio interface is controlled by device-specific configuration registers. In addition, the gpio interface can be used for the following functions:

  • During secondary interface reset, the gpio interface can be used to shift in a 16-bit serial stream that serves as a secondary bus clock disable mask.
  • A live insertion bit can be used, along with the gpio<3> pin, to bring the 21150 gracefully to a halt through hardware, permitting live insertion of option cards behind the 21150. 10.1 gpio Control Registers During normal operation, the gpio interface is controlled by the following device-specific configuration registers:
  • The gpio output data register
  • The gpio output enable control register
  • The gpio input data register These registers consist of five 8-bit fields:
  • Write-1-to-set output data field
  • Write-1-to-clear output data field
  • Write-1-to-set signal output enable control field
  • Write-1-to-clear signal output enable control field
  • Input data field The bottom 4 bits of the output enable fields control whether each gpio signal is input only or bidirectional. Each signal is controlled independently by a bit in each output enable control field. If a 1 is written to the write-1-to-set field, the corresponding pin is activated as an output. If a 1 is written to the write-1-to-clear field, the output driver is tristated, and the pin is then input only. Writing zeros to these registers has no effect. The reset state for these signals is input only. The input data field is read only and reflects the current value of the gpio pins. A type 0 configuration read operation to this address is used to obtain the values of these pins. All pins can be read at any time, whether configured as input only or as bidirectional. The output data fields also use the write-1-to-set and write-1-to-clear method. If a 1 is written to the write-1-to-set field and the pin is enabled as an output, the corresponding gpio output is driven high. If a 1 is written to the write-1-to-clear field and the pin is enabled as an output, the corresponding gpio output is driven low. Writing zeros to these registers has no effect. The value written to the output register will be driven only when the gpio signal is configured as bidirectional. A type 0 configuration write operation is used to program these fields. The reset value for the output is 0.

10.3 Live Insertion

21150 completes any posted write or delayed request transactions that have already been queued. not responding to any I/O or memory transactions during this time. Note that the 21150 continues to accept configuration transactions in live insertion mode. Figure 20. Clock Mask Load and Shift Timing

Once live insertion mode brings the 21150 to a halt and queued transactions are completed, the secondary reset bit in the bridge control register can be used to assert s_rst_l, if desired, to reset and tristate secondary bus devices, and to enable any live insertion hardware.

  • Each secondary clock output is limited to one load.
  • One of the secondary clock outputs must be used for the 21150 s_clk input.

96 Preliminary Datasheet

  • DIGITAL recommends using an equivalent amount of etch on the board for all secondary clocks, to minimize skew between them, and a maximum delay of the etch of 2 ns.
  • DIGITAL recommends terminating or disabling unused secondary clock outputs to reduce power dissipation and noise in the system.

11.3 Disabling Unused Secondary Clock Outputs

When secondary clock outputs are not used, both gpio<3:0> and msk_in can be used to clock in a serial mask that selectively tristates secondary clock outputs. Section 10.2 describes how the 21150 uses the gpio pins and the msk_in signal to input this data stream. After the serial mask has been shifted into the 21150, the value of the mask is readable and modifiable in the secondary clock disable mask register. When the mask is modified by a configuration write operation to this register, the new clock mask disables the appropriate secondary clock outputs within a few cycles. This feature allows software to disable or enable secondary clock outputs based on the presence of option cards, and so on. The 21150 delays deasserting the secondary reset signal, s_rst_l, until the serial clock mask has been completely shifted in and the secondary clocks have been disabled or enabled, according to the mask. The delay between p_rst_l deassertion and s_rst_l deassertion is approximately 23 cycles (46 cycles if s_clk is operating at 66 MHz).

12.0 66-Mhz Operation Some versions of the 21150 support 66 MHz operation. All 21150 versions marked 21150-Bx are 66MHz capable. V ersions of the 21150 marked 21150-Ax are not capable of operation at 66 MHz. Signal config66 must be tied high on the board to enable 66 MHz operation and to set the 66 MHz Capable bit in the Status register and Secondary Status register in configuration space. If the 21150 version is not 66MHz capable, then config66 should be tied low. Signals p_m66ena and s_m66ena should never be pulled high unless config66 is also high. Signals p_m66ena and s_m66ena indicate whether the primary and secondary interfaces, respectively, are operating at 66 MHz 1. This information is needed to control the frequency of the secondary bus. Note that the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.1 restricts clock frequency changes above 33 MHz to during PCI reset only. The 66Mhz capable 21150 supports the following primary and secondary bus frequency combinations:

  • 66 MHz primary bus, 66 MHz secondary bus
  • 66 MHz primary bus, 33 MHz secondary bus
  • 33 MHz primary bus, 33 MHz secondary bus The 21150 does not support 33 MHz primary/66 MHz secondary bus operation, where the secondary bus is operating at twice the frequency of the primary bus. If config66 is high and p_m66ena is low (66 MHz capable, primary bus at 33MHz), then the 21150 pulls down s_m66ena to indicate that the secondary bus is operating at 33 MHz. The 21150 generates the clock signals (s_clk_o<9:0>) for the secondary bus devices and its own secondary interface. The 21150 divides the primary bus clock p_clk by two to generate the secondary bus clock outputs whenever the primary bus is operating at 66 MHz and the secondary bus is operating at 33 MHz. The bridge detects this condition when p_m66ena is high and s_m66ena is low. 1. In general, 66-MHz operation means operation ranging from 33 MHz up to 66 MHz.

13.0 PCI Power Management

  • PCI Power Management registers using the Enhanced Capabilities Port (ECP) address mechanism
  • Support for D0, D3hot and D3cold power management states
  • Support for D0, D1, D2, D3hot, and D3cold power management states for devices behind the bridge
  • Support of the B2 secondary bus power state when in the D3hot power management state Table 34 shows the states and related actions that the 21150 performs during power management transitions. (No other transactions are permitted.) 1. The 21150-AA does not include these features. PME# signals are routed from downstream devices around PCI-to-PCI bridges.

14.0 Reset

This chapter describes the primary interface, secondary interface, and chip reset mechanisms.

14.1 Primary Interface Reset

The 21150 has one reset input, p_rst_l. When p_rst_l is asserted, the following events occur:

  • The 21150 immediately tristates all primary and secondary PCI interface signals.
  • The 21150 performs a chip reset.
  • Registers that have default values are reset. Appendix A lists the values of all configuration space registers after reset. The p_rst_l asserting and deasserting edges can be asynchronous to p_clk and s_clk.

14.2 Secondary Interface Reset

The 21150 is responsible for driving the secondary bus reset signal, s_rst_l. The 21150 asserts s_rst_l when any of the following conditions is met:

  • Signal p_rst_l is asserted. Signal s_rst_l remains asserted as long as p_rst_l is asserted and does not deassert until p_rst_l is deasserted and the secondary clock serial disable mask has been shifted in (23 or 46 clock cycles after p_rst_l deassertion).
  • The secondary reset bit in the bridge control register is set. Signal s_rst_l remains asserted until a configuration write operation clears the secondary reset bit and the secondary clock serial mask has been shifted in.
  • The chip reset bit in the diagnostic control register is set. Signal s_rst_l remains asserted until a configuration write operation clears the secondary reset bit and the secondary clock serial mask has been shifted in. When s_rst_l is asserted, all secondary PCI interface control signals, including the secondary grant outputs, are immediately tristated. Signals s_ad, s_cbe_l, and s_par are driven low for the duration of s_rst_l assertion. All posted write and delayed transaction data buffers are reset; therefore, any transactions residing in 21150 buffers at the time of secondary reset are discarded. When s_rst_l is asserted by means of the secondary reset bit, the 21150 remains accessible during secondary interface reset and continues to respond to accesses to its configuration space from the primary interface.

102 Preliminary Datasheet

14.3 Chip Reset

The chip reset bit in the diagnostic control register can be used to reset the 21150 and the secondary bus. When the chip reset bit is set, all registers and chip state are reset and all signals are tristated.In addition, s_rst_l is asserted, and the secondary reset bit is automatically set. Signal s_rst_l remains asserted until a configuration write operation clears the secondary reset bit and the serial clock mask has been shifted in. As soon as chip reset completes, within 20 PCI clock cycles after completion of the configuration write operation that sets the chip reset bit, the chip reset bit automatically clears and the chip is ready for configuration. During chip reset, the 21150 is inaccessible.

15.0 Configuration Space Registers

This chapter provides a detailed description of the 21150 configuration space registers. The chapter is divided into three sections: Section 15.1 describes the standard 21150 PCI-to-PCI bridge configuration registers, Section 15.2 describes the 21150 device-specific configuration registers, and Section 15.3 describes the configuration register values after reset. The 21150 configuration space uses the PCI-to-PCI bridge standard format specified in the PCI-to- PCI Bridge Architecture Specification. The header type at configuration address 0Eh reads as 01h, indicating that this device uses the PCI-to-PCI bridge format. The 21150 also contains device-specific registers, starting at address 40h. Use of these registers is not required for standard PCI-to-PCI bridge implementations. The configuration space registers can be accessed only from the primary PCI bus. To access a register, perform a Type 0 format configuration read or write operation to that register. During the Type 0 address phase, p_ad<7:2> indicates the Dword offset of the register. During the data phase, p_cbe_l<3:0> selects the bytes in the Dword that is being accessed. Caution: Software changes the configuration register values that affect 21150 behavior only during initialization. Change these values subsequently only when both the primary and secondary PCI buses are idle, and the data buffers are empty; otherwise, the behavior of the 21150 is unpredictable. Figure 22 shows a summary of the configuration space.

16.0 JTAG Test Port

16.1 Overview

  • A 5-wire test access port
  • A test access port controller
  • An instruction register
  • A bypass register
  • A boundary-scan register Note: The JTAG test access port is to be used only while the 21150 is not operating.

16.2 JTAG Signal Pins

This chapter describes the JTAG pins listed in Table 36.

16.3 Test Access Port Controller

received through the tms line. test features. After entry into a state, test feature operations are initiated on the rising edge of tck. Table 36. JTAG Pins

136 Preliminary Datasheet

16.4 Instruction Register

The 5-bit instruction register selects the test modes and features.The instruction register bits are interpreted as instructions, as shown in Table 37. The instructions select and control the operation of the boundary-scan and bypass registers. Table 37 describes the 21150’s instructions. The instruction register is loaded through the tdi pin. The instruction register has a shift-in stage from which the instruction is then loaded in parallel.

16.5 Bypass Register

The bypass register is a 1-bit shift register that provides a means for effectively bypassing the JTAG test logic through a single-bit serial connection through the chip from tdi to tdo. At board- level testing, this helps reduce overall length of the scan ring.

16.6 Boundary-Scan Register

The boundary-scan register is a single-shift register-based path formed by boundary-scan cells placed at the chip’s signal pins. The register is accessed through the JTAG port’s tdi and tdo pins. Table 37. JTAG Instruction Registers

16.6.1 Boundary-Scan Register Cells

  • Input-only pins—The boundary-scan cell is basically a 1-bit shift register. The cell supports sample and shift functions.
  • Output-only pins—The boundary-scan cell comprises a 1-bit shift register and an output multiplexer. The cell supports the sample, shift, and drive output functions.
  • Bidirectional pins—The boundary-scan cell is identical to the output-only pin cell, but it captures test data from the incoming data line. The cell supports sample, shift, drive output, and hold output functions. It is used at all I/O pins. 16.6.2 21150 Boundary-Scan Order Table 38 lists the boundary-scan register order and the group disable controls. The group disable control either enables or tristates its corresponding group of bidirectional drivers. When the value of a group disable control bit is 0, the output driver is enabled. When the value is 1, the driver is tristated. There are nine groups of bidirectional drivers, and therefore nine group disable control bits. The Group Disable Number column in Table 38 shows which group disable bit controls the corresponding output driver. Group disable bits do not affect input-only pins, so those pins have a blank rather than a group number in the Group Disable Number column. The group disable control wire can control pins on either side of where the group disable boundary-scan register is placed. The group disable boundary-scan registers have a boundary-scan register number entry, but they do not have a corresponding pin number or signal name. Data shifts from tdi into the most significant bit of the boundary-scan register, and from the least significant bit of the boundary-scan register out to tdo.
