Primary Address / Data: Multiplexed address  
and data bus. Address is indicated by  
P_FRAME_L assertion. Write data is stable  
and valid when P_IRDY_L is asserted and  
read data is stable and valid when P_TRDY_L  
is asserted. Data is transferred on rising clock  
edges when both P_IRDY_L and P_TRDY_L  
are asserted. During bus idle, PI7C8154 drives  
P_AD[31:0] to a valid logic level when  
P_GNT_L is asserted.

Primary Command/Byte Enables:  
Multiplexed command field and byte enable  
field. During address phase, the initiator drives  
the transaction type on these pins. After that,  
the initiator drives the byte enables during data  
phases. During bus idle, PI7C8154 drives  
P_CBE[3:0] to a valid logic level when  
P_GNT_L is asserted.  
AB7  
Primary Parity. P_PAR is even parity of  
P_AD[31:0] and P_CBE[3:0] (i.e. an even  
number of 1’s). P_PAR is valid and stable one  
cycle after the address phase (indicated by  
assertion of P_FRAME_L) for address parity.  
For write data phases, P_PAR is valid one  
clock after P_IRDY_L is asserted. For read  
data phase, P_PAR is valid one clock after  
P_TRDY_L is asserted. Signal P_PAR is tri-  
stated one cycle after the P_AD lines are tri-  
stated. During bus idle, PI7C8154 drives  
P_PAR to a valid logic level when P_GNT_L  
is asserted.

Primary Upper 32-bit Address / Data:  
Multiplexed address and data bus providing an  
additional 32 bits to the primary. When a dual  
address command is used and P_REQ64_L is  
asserted, the initiator drives the upper 32 bits  
of the 64-bit address. Otherwise, these bits are  
undefined and driven to valid logic levels.  
During the data phase of a transaction, the  
initiator drives the upper 32 bits of the 64-bit  
write data, or the target drives the upper 32 bits  
of the 64-bit read data, when P_REQ64_L and  
P_ACK64_L are both asserted. Otherwise,

Primary Upper 32-bit Parity: P_PAR64  
carries the even parity of P_AD[63:32] and  
P_CBE[7:4] for both address and data phases.  
P_PAR64 is driven by the initiator and is valid  
1 cycle after the first address phase when a  
dual address command is used and  
P_REQ64_L is asserted. P_PAR64 is valid 1  
clock cycle after the second address phase of a  
dual address transaction when P_REQ64_L is  
asserted. P_PAR64 is valid 1 cycle after valid  
data is driven when both P_REQ64_L and  
P_ACK64_L are asserted for that data phase.  
P_PAR64 is driven by the device driving read  
or write data 1 cycle after the P_AD lines are  
driven. P_PAR64 is tri-stated 1 cycle after the  
P_AD lines are tri-stated. Devices receive data  
sample P_PAR64 as an input to check for  
possible parity errors during 64-bit  
transactions. When not driven, P_PAR64 is  
pulled up to a valid logic level through external  
resistors.

AC14  
STS  
Primary 64-bit Transfer Request:  
P_REQ64_L is asserted by the initiator to  
indicate that the initiator is requesting a 64-bit  
data transfer. P_REQ64_L has the same  
timing as P_FRAME_L. When P_REQ64_L is  
asserted LOW during reset, a 64-bit data path  
is supported. When P_REQ64_L is HIGH  
during reset, PI7C8154 drives P_AD[63:32],  
P_CBE[7:4], and P_PAR64 to valid logic  
levels. When deasserting, P_REQ64_L is  
driven to a deasserted state for 1 cycle and then  
sustained by an external pull-up resistor.  
Primary 64-bit Transfer Acknowledge:  
P_ACK64_L is asserted by the target only  
when P_REQ64_L is asserted by the initiator  
to indicate the target’s ability to transfer data  
using 64 bits. P_ACK64_L has the same  
timing as P_DEVSEL_L. When deasserting,  
P_ACK64_L is driven to a deasserted state for  
1 cycle and then is sustained by an external

SIGNAL DEFINITIONS  
This Chapter offers information about PCI transactions, transaction forwarding across  
PI7C8154, and transaction termination. The PI7C8154 has two 128-byte buffers for read  
data buffering of upstream and downstream transactions. Also, PI7C8154 has two 128-byte  
buffers for write data buffering of upstream and downstream transactions.  
2.1  
TYPES OF TRANSACTIONS  
This section provides a summary of PCI transactions performed by PI7C8154. Table 2-1  
lists the command code and name of each PCI transaction. The Master and Target columns  
indicate support for each transaction when PI7C8154 initiates transactions as a master, on  
the primary and secondary buses, and when PI7C8154 responds to transactions as a target,  
on the primary and secondary buses.

As indicated in Table 2-1, the following PCI commands are not supported by PI7C8154:  
!
PI7C8154 never initiates a PCI transaction with a reserved command code and, as a  
target, PI7C8154 ignores reserved command codes.  
!
PI7C8142 does not generate interrupt acknowledge transactions. PI7C8154 ignores  
interrupt acknowledge transactions as a target.  
!
PI7C8154 does not respond to special cycle transactions. PI7C8154 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 special cycle transactions on other PCI buses, either upstream or downstream, Type  
1 configuration write must be used.  
!
PI7C8154 neither generates Type 0 configuration transactions on the primary PCI bus nor  
responds to Type 0 configuration transactions on the secondary PCI bus.  
2.2  
2.3  
SINGLE ADDRESS PHASE  
A 32-bit address uses a single address phase. This address is driven on P_AD[31:0], and the  
bus command is driven on P_CBE[3:0]. PI7C8154 supports the linear increment address  
mode only, which is indicated when the lowest two address bits are equal to zero. If either of  
the lowest two address bits is nonzero, PI7C8154 automatically disconnects the transaction  
after the first data transfer.  
DUAL ADDRESS PHASE  
A 64-bit address uses two address phases. The first address phase is denoted by the asserting  
edge of FRAME_L. The second address phase always follows on the next clock cycle.  
For a 32-bit interface, the first address phase contains dual address command code on the  
CBE[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 CBE[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.

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
The PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture Specification supports the use of dual address  
transactions in the prefetchable memory range only. See Section 3.3.3 for a discussion of  
prefetchable address space. The PI7C8154 supports dual address transactions in both the  
upstream and the downstream direction. The PI7C8154 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 document for each type of memory transaction in  
prefetchable memory space.  
2.4  
2.5  
DEVICE SELECT (DEVSEL_L) GENERATION  
PI7C8154 always performs positive address decoding (medium decode) when accepting  
transactions on either the primary or secondary buses. PI7C8154 never does subtractive  
decode.  
DATA PHASE  
The address phase of a PCI transaction is followed by one or more data phases. A data  
phase is completed when IRDY_L and either TRDY_L or STOP_L are asserted. A transfer  
of data occurs only when both IRDY_L and TRDY_L are asserted during the same PCI  
clock cycle. The last data phase of a transaction is indicated when FRAME_L is de-asserted  
and both TRDY_L and IRDY_L are asserted, or when IRDY_L and STOP_L are asserted.  
See Section 2.11for further discussion of transaction termination.  
Depending on the command type, PI7C8154 can support multiple data phase PCI  
transactions. For detailed descriptions of how PI7C8154 imposes disconnect boundaries, see  
Section 2.6.4for write address boundaries and Section 2.7.3 read address boundaries.  
2.6  
WRITE TRANSACTIONS  
Write transactions are treated as either posted write or delayed write transactions. Table 2-2  
shows the method of forwarding used for each type of write operation.

transactions.

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
When PI7C8154 determines that a memory write transaction is to be forwarded across the  
bridge, PI7C8154 asserts DEVSEL_L with medium decode timing and TRDY_L in the next  
cycle, provided that enough buffer space is available in the posted memory write queue for  
the address and at least one DWORD of data. Under this condition, PI7C8154 accepts write  
data without obtaining access to the target bus. The PI7C8154 can accept one DWORD of  
write data every PCI clock cycle. That is, no target wait state is inserted. The write data is  
stored in an internal posted write buffers and is subsequently delivered to the target. The  
PI7C8154 continues to accept write data until one of the following events occurs:  
!
!
The initiator terminates the transaction by de-asserting FRAME_L and IRDY_L.  
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 PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 asserts its  
request on the target bus. This can occur while PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 asserts FRAME_L and drives the stored write address out on  
the target bus. On the following cycle, PI7C8154 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,  
PI7C8154 can drive one DWORD of write data in each PCI clock cycle; that is, no master  
wait states are inserted. If write data is flowing through PI7C8154 and the initiator stalls,  
PI7C8154 will signal the last data phase for the current transaction at the target bus if the  
queue empties. PI7C8154 will restart the follow-on transactions if the queue has new data.  
PI7C8154 ends the transaction on the target bus when one of the following conditions is met:  
!
!
All posted write data has been delivered to the target.  
The target returns a target disconnect or target retry (PI7C8154 starts another  
transaction to deliver the rest of the write data).  
!
!
The target returns a target abort (PI7C8154 discards remaining write data).  
The master latency timer expires, and PI7C8154 no longer has the target bus grant  
(PI7C8154 starts another transaction to deliver remaining write data).  
Section 2.11.3.2 provides detailed information about how PI7C8154 responds to target  
termination during posted write transactions.

MEMORY WRITE AND INVALIDATE  
Posted write forwarding is used for Memory Write and Invalidate transactions.

2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
The PI7C8154 disconnects Memory Write and Invalidate commands at aligned cache line  
boundaries. The cache line size value in the cache line size register gives the number of  
DWORD in a cache line.  
If the value in the cache line size register does meet the memory write and invalidate  
conditions, the PI7C8154 returns a target disconnect to the initiator on a cache line  
boundary.  
2.6.3  
DELAYED WRITE TRANSACTIONS  
Delayed write forwarding is used for I/O write transactions and 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 PI7C8154 forwards it as a  
delayed transaction, PI7C8154 claims the access by asserting DEVSEL_L and returns a  
target retry to the initiator. During the address phase, PI7C8154 samples the bus command,  
address, and address parity one cycle later. After IRDY_L is asserted, PI7C8154 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. The PI7C8154  
initiates the transaction on the target bus. PI7C8154 transfers the write data to the target. If  
PI7C8154 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 PI7C8154 is unable to deliver write data after 224 (default) or 232 (maximum) attempts,  
PI7C8154 will report a system error. PI7C8154 also asserts P_SERR_L if the primary  
SERR_L enable bit is set in the command register. See Section 5.4for 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 PI7C8154 claims the access by asserting DEVSEL_L and returns  
TRDY_L to the initiator, to indicate that the write data was transferred. If the initiator  
requests multiple DWORD, PI7C8154 also asserts STOP_L in conjunction with TRDY_L 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,  
PI7C8154 returns a target retry to the initiator. PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 does not make a new entry  
into the delayed transaction queue. Section 2.11.3.1 provides detailed information about how  
PI7C8154 responds to target termination during delayed write transactions.

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
PI7C8154 implements a discard timer that starts counting when the delayed write completion  
is at the head of the delayed transaction completion queue. The initial value of this timer can  
be set to the retry counter register offset 78h.  
If the initiator does not repeat the delayed write transaction before the discard timer expires,  
PI7C8154 discards the delayed write completion from the delayed transaction completion  
queue. PI7C8154 also conditionally asserts P_SERR_L (see Section 5.4).  
2.6.4  
WRITE TRANSACTION ADDRESS BOUNDARIES  
PI7C8154 imposes internal address boundaries when accepting write data. The aligned  
address boundaries are used to prevent PI7C8154 from continuing a transaction over a  
device address boundary and to provide an upper limit on maximum latency. PI7C78154  
returns a target disconnect to the initiator when it reaches the aligned address boundaries  
under conditions shown in Table 2-3.

BUFFERING MULTIPLE WRITE TRANSACTIONS  
PI7C8154 continues to accept posted memory write transactions as long as space for at least  
one DWORD of data in the posted write data buffer remains. If the posted write data buffer  
fills before the initiator terminates the write transaction, PI7C8154 returns a target  
disconnect to the initiator.  
Delayed write transactions are accepted as long as at least one open entry in the delayed  
transaction queue exists. Therefore, several posted and delayed write transactions can exist  
in data buffers at the same time. See Chapter 4 for information about how multiple posted  
and delayed write transactions are ordered.  
FAST BACK-TO-BACK WRITE TRANSACTIONS  
PI7C8154 is capable of decoding and forwarding fast back-to-back write transactions. When  
PI7C8154 cannot accept the second transaction because of buffer space limitations, it returns  
a target retry to the initiator. The fast back-to-back enable bit must be set in the command

register for upstream write transactions, and in the bridge control register for downstream  
write transactions.  
2.7  
READ TRANSACTIONS  
Delayed read forwarding is used for all read transactions crossing PI7C8154. Delayed read  
transactions are treated as either prefetchable or non-prefetchable. Table 2-5 shows the read  
behavior, prefetchable or non-prefetchable, for each type of read operation.  
2.7.1  
PREFETCHABLE READ TRANSACTIONS  
A prefetchable read transaction is a read transaction where PI7C8154 performs speculative  
DWORD reads, transferring data from the target before it is requested from the initiator.  
This behavior allows a prefetchable read transaction to consist of multiple data transfers.  
However, byte enable bits cannot be forwarded for all data phases as is done for the single  
data phase of the non-prefetchable read transaction. For prefetchable read transactions,  
PI7C8154 forces all byte enable bits to be on for all data phases.  
Prefetchable behavior is used for memory read line and memory read multiple transactions,  
as well as for memory read transactions that fall into prefetchable memory space.  
The amount of data that is prefetched depends on the type of transaction. The amount of  
prefetching may also be affected by the amount of free buffer space available in PI7C8154,  
and by any read address boundaries encountered.  
Prefetching should not be used for those read transactions that have side effects in the target  
device, that is, control and status registers, FIFO’s, and so on. The target device’s base  
address register or registers indicate if a memory address region is prefetchable.  
2.7.2  
NON-PREFETCHABLE READ TRANSACTIONS  
A non-prefetchable read transaction is a read transaction where PI7C8154 requests one and  
only one DWORD from the target and disconnects the initiator after delivery of the first  
DWORD of read data. Unlike prefetchable read transactions, PI7C8154 forwards the read  
byte enable information for the data phase.  
Non-prefetchable behavior is used for I/O and configuration read transactions, as well as for  
memory read transactions that fall into non-prefetchable memory space.  
If extra read transactions could have side effects, for example, when accessing a FIFO, use  
non-prefetchable read transactions to those locations. Accordingly, if it is important to retain  
the value of the byte enable bits during the data phase, use non-prefetchable read  
transactions. If these locations are mapped in memory space, use the memory read command  
and map the target into non-prefetchable (memory-mapped I/O) memory space to use non-  
prefetching behavior.

READ PREFECTCH ADDRESS BOUNDARIES  
Page 28 of 110  
May 29, 2003 – Revision 1.02  
PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
PI7C8154 imposes internal read address boundaries on read prefetched data. When a read  
transaction reaches one of these aligned address boundaries, the PI7C8154 stops pre-fetched  
data, unless the target signals a target disconnect before the read prefetched boundary is  
reached. When PI7C8154 finishes transferring this read data to the initiator, it returns a  
target disconnect with the last data transfer, unless the initiator completes the transaction  
before all pre-fetched read data is delivered. Any leftover pre-fetched data is discarded.  
Prefetchable read transactions in flow-through mode pre-fetch to the nearest aligned 4KB  
address boundary, or until the initiator de-asserts FRAME_L. Section 2.7.6 describes flow-  
through mode during read operations.  
Table 2-4 READ PREFETCH ADDRESS BOUNDARIESshows the read pre-fetch address  
boundaries for read transactions during non-flow-through mode.

2.7.4  
DELAYED READ REQUESTS  
PI7C8154 treats all read transactions as delayed read transactions, which means that the read  
request from the initiator is posted into a delayed transaction queue. Read data from the  
target is placed in the read data queue directed toward the initiator bus interface and is  
transferred to the initiator when the initiator repeats the read transaction.  
PI7C8154 accepts a delayed read request, by sampling the read address, read bus command,  
and address parity. When IRDY_L is asserted, PI7C8154 then samples the byte enable bits  
for the first data phase. This information is entered into the delayed transaction queue.  
PI7C8154 terminates the transaction by signaling a target retry to the initiator. Upon  
reception of the target retry, the initiator is required to continue to repeat the same read  
Page 29 of 110

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
transaction until at least one data transfer is completed, or until a target response (target abort  
or master abort) other than a target retry is received.  
2.7.5  
DELAYED READ COMPLETION ON TARGET BUS  
When delayed read request reaches the head of the delayed transaction queue, PI7C8154  
arbitrates for the target bus and initiates the read transaction only if all previously queued  
posted write transactions have been delivered. PI7C8154 uses the exact read address and  
read command captured from the initiator during the initial delayed read request to initiate  
the read transaction. If the read transaction is a non-prefetchable read, PI7C8154 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 zero for all data phases. If PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 does not initiate any  
further attempts to read more data.  
If PI7C8154 is unable to obtain read data from the target after 224 (default) or 232 (maximum)  
attempts, PI7C8154 will report system error. The number of attempts is programmable.  
PI7C8154 also asserts P_SERR_L if the primary SERR_L enable bit is set in the command  
register. See Section 5.4 for information on the assertion of P_SERR_L.  
Once PI7C8154 receives DEVSEL_L and TRDY_L from the target, it transfers the data read  
to the opposite direction read data queue, pointing toward the opposite inter-face, 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  
PI7C8154 can accept one DWORD of read data each PCI clock cycle; that is, no master wait  
states are inserted. The number of DWORD’s transferred during a delayed read transaction  
matches the prefetch address boundary given in Table 2-4 READ PREFETCH ADDRESS  
BOUNDARIES (assuming no disconnect is received from the target).  
2.7.6  
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 PI7C8154 transfers the data to the initiator when the initiator repeats  
the transaction. For memory read transactions, PI7C8154 aliases memory read line and  
memory read multiple bus commands to memory read when matching the bus command of  
the transaction to the bus command in the delayed transaction queue if bit[3] of offset 74h is  
set to ‘1’. PI7C8154 returns a target disconnect along with the transfer of the last DWORD  
of read data to the initiator. If PI7C8154 initiator terminates the transaction before all read  
data has been transferred, the remaining read data left in data buffers is discarded.  
When the master repeats the transaction and starts transferring prefetchable read data from  
data buffers while the read transaction on the target bus is still in progress and before a read  
boundary is reached on the target bus, the read transaction starts operating in flow-through  
mode. Because data is flowing through the data buffers from the target to the initiator, long  
read bursts can then be sustained. In this case, the read transaction is allowed to continue  
until the initiator terminates the transaction, or until an aligned 4KB address boundary is  
reached, or until the buffer fills, whichever comes first. When the buffer empties, PI7C8154  
Page 30 of 110

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
reflects the stalled condition to the initiator by disconnecting the initiator with data. The  
initiator may retry the transaction later if data are needed. If the initiator does not need any  
more data, the initiator will not continue the disconnected transaction. In this case, PI7C8154  
will start the master timeout timer. The remaining read data will be discarded after the  
master timeout timer expires. To provide better latency, if there are any other pending data  
for other transactions in the RDB (Read Data Buffer), the remaining read data will be  
discarded even though the master timeout timer has not expired.  
PI7C8154 implements a master timeout timer that starts counting when the delayed read  
completion is at the head of the delayed transaction queue, and the read data is at the head of  
the read data queue. The initial value of this timer is programmable through configuration  
transaction. If the initiator does not repeat the read transaction and before the master timeout  
timer expires (215 default), PI7C8154 discards the read transaction and read data from its  
queues. PI7C8154 also conditionally asserts P_SERR_L (see Section 5.4).  
PI7C8154 has the capability to post multiple delayed read requests, up to a maximum of four  
in each direction. If an initiator starts a read transaction that matches the address and read  
command of a read transaction that is already queued, the current read command is not  
posted as it is already contained in the delayed transaction queue.  
See Section 4 for a discussion of how delayed read transactions are ordered when crossing  
PI7C8154.  
2.7.7  
FAST BACK-TO-BACK READ TRANSACTION  
PI7C8154 is capable of decoding fast back-to-back read transactions on both the primary and  
secondary. Also, PI7C8154 cannot generate fast back-to-back read transactions on the  
secondary or primary even though bit[23] of offset 3Ch is set to ‘1’ or bit[9] of offset 04h is  
set to ‘1’.  
2.8  
CONFIGURATION TRANSACTIONS  
Configuration transactions are used to initialize a PCI system. Every PCI device  
has a configuration space that is accessed by configuration commands. All registers are  
accessible in configuration space only.  
In addition to accepting configuration transactions for initialization of its own configuration  
space, the PI7C8154 also forwards configuration transactions for device initialization in  
hierarchical PCI systems, as well as for special cycle generation.  
To support hierarchical PCI bus systems, two types of configuration transactions are  
specified: Type 0 and Type 1.  
Type 0 configuration transactions are issued when the intended target resides on the same  
PCI bus as the initiator. A Type 0 configuration transaction is identified by the configuration  
command and the lowest two bits of the address set to 00b.  
Type 1 configuration transactions are issued when the intended target resides on another PCI  
bus, or when a special cycle is to be generated on another PCI bus.  
A Type 1 configuration command is identified by the configuration command and  
the lowest two address bits set to 01b.  
Page 31 of 110  
May 29, 2003 – Revision 1.02  
PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
The register number is found in both Type 0 and Type 1 formats and gives the DWORD  
address of the configuration register to be accessed. The function number is also included in  
both Type 0 and Type 1 formats and indicates which function of a multifunction device is to  
be accessed. For single-function devices, this value is not decoded. The addresses of Type 1  
configuration transaction include a 5-bit field designating the device number that identifies  
the device on the target PCI bus that is to be accessed. In addition, the bus number in Type 1  
transactions specifies the PCI bus to which the transaction is targeted.  
2.8.1  
TYPE 0 ACCESS TO PI7C8154  
The configuration space is accessed by a Type 0 configuration transaction on the primary  
interface. The configuration space cannot be accessed from the secondary bus. The  
PI7C8154 responds to a Type 0 configuration transaction by asserting P_DEVSEL_L when  
the following conditions are met during the address phase:  
!
!
!
The bus command is a configuration read or configuration write transaction.  
Lowest two address bits P_AD[1:0] must be 00b.  
Signal P_IDSEL must be asserted.  
PI7C8154 limits all configuration access to a single DWORD data transfer and returns  
target-disconnect with the first data transfer if additional data phases are requested. Because  
read transactions to 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 data buffers; that is, these  
transactions are completed immediately, regardless of the state of the data buffers. The  
PI7C8154 ignores all Type 0 transactions initiated on the secondary interface.  
2.8.2  
TYPE 1 TO TYPE 0 CONVERSION  
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.  
PI7C8154 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. PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 generates a Type 0 transaction only on  
the secondary bus, and never on the primary bus.  
PI7C8154 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 lowest two address bits on P_AD[1:0] are 01b.

ADVANCE INFORMATION  
!
!
The bus number in address field P_AD[23:16] is equal to the value in the secondary  
bus number register in configuration space.  
The bus command on P_CBE[3:0] is a configuration read or configuration write  
transaction.  
When PI7C8154 translates the Type 1 transaction to a Type 0 transaction on the secondary  
interface, it performs the following translations to the address:  
!
!
Sets the lowest two address bits on S_AD[1:0] to 0.

Sets S_AD[15:11] to 0.  
Leaves unchanged the function number and register number fields.  
PI7C8154 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 2-6 presents the mapping  
that PI7C8154 uses.

PI7C8154 can assert up to 16 unique address lines to be used as IDSEL signals for  
up to 16 devices on the secondary bus, for device numbers ranging from 0 through 8.  
Because of electrical loading constraints of the PCI bus, more than 16 IDSEL signals should  
not be necessary. However, if device numbers greater than 16 are desired, some external  
method of generating IDSEL lines must be used, and no upper address bits are then asserted.  
The configuration transaction is still translated and passed from the primary bus to the  
secondary bus. If no IDSEL pin is asserted to a secondary device, the transaction ends in a  
master abort.

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
PI7C8154 forwards Type 1 to Type 0 configuration read or write transactions as delayed  
transactions. Type 1 to Type 0 configuration read or write transactions are limited to a single  
32-bit data transfer.  
2.8.3  
TYPE 1 TO TYPE 1 FORWARDING  
Type 1 to Type 1 transaction forwarding provides a hierarchical configuration mechanism  
when two or more levels of PCI-to-PCI bridges are used.  
When PI7C8154 detects a Type 1 configuration transaction intended for a PCI bus  
downstream from the secondary bus, PI7C8154 forwards the transaction unchanged to the  
secondary bus. Ultimately, this transaction is translated to a Type 0 configuration command  
or to a special cycle transaction by a downstream PCI-to-PCI bridge. Downstream Type 1 to  
Type 1 forwarding occurs when the following conditions are met during the address phase:  
!
!
The lowest two address bits are equal to 01b.  
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.  
PI7C8154 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 lowest two 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 PI7C8154 forwards Type 1 to Type 1 configuration write transactions as delayed  
transactions. Types 1 to Type 1 configuration write transactions are limited to a single data  
transfer.  
2.8.4  
SPECIAL CYCLES  
The Type 1 configuration mechanism is used to generate special cycle transactions in  
hierarchical PCI systems. Special cycle transactions are ignored by 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 down-stream direction.

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
PI7C8154 initiates a special cycle on the target bus when a Type 1 configuration write  
transaction is being detected on the initiating bus and the following conditions are met  
during the address phase:  
!
!
!
!
!
The lowest two 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 CBE is a configuration write command.  
When PI7C8154 initiates the transaction on the target interface, the bus command is changed  
from configuration write to special cycle. The address and data are for-warded 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, PI7C8154 responds with TRDY_L to the next  
attempt of the con-figuration transaction from the initiator. If more than one data transfer is  
requested, PI7C8154 responds with a target disconnect operation during the first data phase.  
2.9  
64-BIT OPERATION  
Both the primary and secondary interfaces of the PI7C8154 support 32-bit operation and 64-  
bit operation. This chapter describes how to use the 64-bit operations as well as the  
conditions that go along with it.  
2.9.1  
64-BIT AND 32-BIT TRANSACTIONS INITIATED BY PI7C8154  
64-bit transactions are requested by asserting P_REQ64_L on the primary and S_REQ64_L  
on the secondary during the address phase. REQ64_L is asserted and deasserted during the  
same cycles as FRAME_L. Under certain conditions, PI7C8154 does not use the 64-bit  
extension when initiating transactions. In this case, REQ64_L is not asserted.  
If REQ64_L is not asserted, the transaction is initiated as a 32-bit transaction when any of  
the following conditions are met:  
!
P_REQ64_L was not asserted by the primary during reset (64-bit extension not  
supported on the primary) for upstream transactions only  
!
!
PI7C8154 is initiating an I/O transaction  
PI7C8154 is initiating a special cycle transaction

PI7C8154 is resuming memory write transaction after a target disconnect, and  
ACK64_L was not asserted by the target in the previous transaction – does not apply  
when the previous target termination was a target retry  
2.9.2  
64-BIT TRANSACTIONS – ADDRESS PHASE  
When a transaction using the primary bus 64-bit extension is a single address cycle, the  
upper 32-bits of the address, AD[63:32], are assumed to be 0 and CBE[7:4] are not defined  
but driven to valid logic levels during the address phase.  
When a transaction using the primary bus 64-bit extension is a dual address cycle, the upper  
32-bit of the address, AD[63:32], contain the upper 32-bits of the address and CBE[7:4]  
contain memory bus command during both address phases. A 64-bit target then has the  
opportunity to decode the entire 64-bit address and bus command after the first address  
phase. A 32-bit target needs both address phases to decode the full address and bus  
command.  
2.9.3  
64-BIT TRANSACTIONS – DATA PHASE  
PI7C8154 asserts REQ64_L to indicate it is initiating a 64-bit transfer during memory write  
transactions. During the data phase, PI7C8154 asserts the following:  
!
!
!
!
The low 32 bits of data on AD[31:0]  
The low 4 bits on CBE[3:0]  
The high 32 bits of data on AD[63:32]  
The high 4 bits on CBE[7:4]  
Every data phase will consist of 64 bits and 8 byte enable bits when PI7C8154 detects  
ACK64#_L asserted by the target at the same time it detects DEVSEL_L.  
For write transactions, PI7C8154 redirects the write data that it has on the AD[63:32] bus to  
AD[31:0] during the second data phase if it does not detect ACK64_L asserted at the same  
time that it detects DEVSEL_L asserted. Also, the CBE[7:4] is redirected to CBE[3:0]  
during the second data phase.  
Page 36 of 110  
May 29, 2003 – Revision 1.02  
PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
For 64-bit memory write transactions that end at an odd DWORD boundary, PI7C8154  
drives the byte enable bits to 1 during the last data phase. AD[63:32] are then unpredictable  
but are driven to a valid logic level.  
For read transactions, PI7C8154 drives 8 bits of byte enables on CBE[7:0] when it has  
asserted REQ64_L. CBE[7:0] is always 0 because the only read transactions that use the 64-  
bit extension are prefetchable memory reads. No special redirection is needed based on the  
target’s assertion or lack of assertion of ACK64_L. When the target asserts ACK64_L at the  
same time that it asserts DEVSEL_L, all read data transfers consist of 64 bits and the target  
asserts PAR64, which covers AD[63:32] and CBE[7:4]. All data phase consist of 32-bit  
transactions when the target does not assert ACK64_L and asserts DEVSEL_L.  
2.9.4  
64-BIT TRANSACTIONS – RECEIVED BY PI7C8154  
PI7C8154 does one of 2 things when it is the target of a transaction and REQ64_L is  
asserted. PI7C8154 either asserts ACK64_L at the same time it asserts DEVSEL_L to  
indicate its ability to perform 64-bit data transfers, or it does not use the 64-bit extension as a  
target and does not assert ACK64_L. PI7C8154 does not assert ACK64_L under any of the  
following conditions:  
!
!
!
!
!
REQ64_L was not asserted by the initiator  
PI7C8154 is responding to a nonprefetchable memory read transaction  
PI7C8154 is responding to an I/O transaction  
PI7C8154 is responding to a configuration transaction  
Only 1 DWORD of data was read from the target  
If PI7C8154 is the target of a 64-bit memory write transaction, it is able to accept 64 bits of  
data during each data phase. If PI7C8154 is the target of a memory read transaction, it  
delivers 64 bits of read data during each data phase and drives PAR64 corresponding to  
AD[63:32] and CBE[7:4] for each data phase. If an odd number of DWORDS is read from  
the target and PI7C8154 has asserted ACK64_L when returning read data to the initiator,  
PI7C8154 disconnects before the last DWORD is returned. PI7C8154 may have read an odd  
number of DWORD’s because of either a target disconnect or a master latency timer  
expiration during 32-bit data transfers on the opposite interface.  
2.9.5  
64-BIT TRANSACTIONS – SUPPORT DURING RESET  
PI7C8154 checks P_REQ64_L while P_RESET_L is asserted to determine whether the 64-  
bit extensions are connected. If P_REQ64_L is HIGH, PI7C8154 knows that the 64-bit  
extension signals are not connected so it always drives the 64-bit extension outputs to have  
valid logic levels on the inputs. PI7C8154 will then treat all transactions on the primary as  
32-bit. If P_REQ64_L is LOW, the 64-bit signals should be connected to pull-up resistors  
on the board and PI7C8154 does not perform any input biasing. PI7C8154 can then treat  
memory write and prefetchabel memory read transactions as 64-bit transactions on the  
primary.  
Page 37 of 110  
May 29, 2003 – Revision 1.02  
PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
PI7C8154 always asserts S_REQ64_L LOW during S_RESET_L to indicate that the 64-bit  
extension is supported on the secondary bus. Individual pull-up resistors must always be  
supplied for S_AD[63:32], S_CBE[7:4], and S_PAR64.  
2.10  
TRANSACTION FLOW THROUGH  
Transaction flow through refers to data being removed from the read/write buffers  
concurrently as data is still being written to the buffer.  
For reads, flow through occurs when the initiator repeats the delayed transaction while some  
read data is in the buffer, but the transaction is still ongoing on the target bus. For read flow  
through to occur, there can be no other reads or writes previously posted in the same  
direction.  
For writes, flow through occurs when PI7C8154 is able to arbitrate for the target bus, initiate  
the transaction and receive TRDY_L from the target, while receiving data from the same  
transaction on the initiator bus. Flow through can only occur if the writes that were  
previously posted in the same direction are completed.  
2.11  
TRANSACTION TERMINATION  
This section describes how PI7C8154 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 de-asserts FRAME_L at the beginning of the  
last data phase, and de-asserts IRDYL at the end of the last data phase in conjunction with  
either TRDY_L or STOP_L assertion from the target.  
!
Master abort  
A master abort occurs when no target response is detected. When the initiator does not detect  
a DEVSEL_L from the target within five clock cycles after asserting FRAME_L, the  
initiator terminates the transaction with a master abort. If FRAME_L is still asserted, the  
initiator de-asserts FRAME_L on the next cycle, and then de-asserts IRDY_L on the  
following cycle. IRDY_L must be asserted in the same cycle in which FRAME_L deasserts.  
If FRAME_L is already deasserted, IRDY_L 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_L and DEVSEL_L asserted in conjunction with FRAME_L deasserted and IRDY_L  
asserted.  
!
Target retry  
STOP_L and DEVSEL_L asserted with TRDY_L deasserted during the first data phase. No  
data transfers occur during the transaction. This transaction must be repeated.  
!
Target disconnect with data transfer  
Page 38 of 110  
May 29, 2003 – Revision 1.02  
PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
STOP_L, DEVSEL_L and TRDY_L asserted. It signals that this is the last data transfer of  
the transaction.  
!
Target disconnect without data transfer  
STOP_L and DEVSEL_L asserted with TRDY_L de-asserted after previous data transfers  
have been made, indicating that no more data transfers will be made during this transaction.  
!
Target abort  
STOP_L asserted with DEVSEL_L and TRDY_L de-asserted. Indicates that target will  
never be able to complete this transaction. DEVSEL_L must be asserted for at least one  
cycle during the transaction before the target abort is signaled.  
2.11.1  
MASTER TERMINATION INITIATED BY PI7C8154  
PI7C8154, as an initiator, uses normal termination if DEVSEL_L is returned by target within  
five clock cycles of PI7C8154’s assertion of FRAME_L on the target bus. As an initiator,  
PI7C8154 terminates a transaction when the following conditions are met:  
!
!
During a delayed write transaction, a single DWORD is delivered.  
During a non-prefetchable read transaction, a single DWORD is transferred from the  
target.  
!
!
During a prefetchable read transaction, a pre-fetch boundary is reached.  
For a posted write transaction, all write data for the transaction is transferred from data  
buffers to the target.  
!
!
For burst transfer, with the exception of “Memory Write and Invalidate” transactions,  
the master latency timer expires and the PI7C8154’s bus grant is de-asserted.  
The target terminates the transaction with a retry, disconnect, or target abort.  
If PI7C8154 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 PI7C8154 is pre-fetching read data when it terminates the transaction because the master  
latency timer expires, it does not repeat the transaction to obtain more data.  
2.11.2  
MASTER ABORT RECEIVED BY PI7C8154  
If the initiator initiates a transaction on the target bus and does not detect DEVSEL_L  
returned by the target within five clock cycles of the assertion of FRAME_L, PI7C8154  
terminates the transaction with a master abort. This sets the received-master-abort bit in the  
status register corresponding to the target bus.  
For delayed read and write transactions, PI7C8154 is able to reflect the master abort  
condition back to the initiator. When PI7C8154 detects a master abort in response to a  
delayed transaction, and when the initiator repeats the transaction, PI7C8154 does not

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
respond to the transaction with DEVSEL_L, which induces the master abort condition back  
to the initiator. The transaction is then removed from the delayed transaction queue. When a  
master abort is received in response to a posted write transaction, PI7C8154 discards the  
posted write data and makes no more attempts to deliver the data. PI7C8154 sets the  
received-master-abort bit in the status register when the master abort is received on the  
primary bus, or it sets the received master abort bit in the secondary status register when the  
master abort is received on the secondary interface. When master abort is detected in posted  
write transaction with both master-abort-mode bit (bit[5] of bridge control register) and the  
SERR_L enable bit (bit 8 of command register for secondary bus) are set, PI7C8154 asserts  
P_SERR_L if the master-abort-on-posted-write is not set. The master-abort-on-posted-write  
bit is bit 4 of the P_SERR_L event disable register (offset 64h).  
Note: When PI7C8154 performs a Type 1 to special cycle conversion, a master abort is the  
expected termination for the special cycle on the target bus. In this case, the master abort  
received bit is not set, and the Type 1 configuration transaction is disconnected after the first  
data phase.  
2.11.3  
TARGET TERMINATION RECEIVED BY PI7C8154  
When PI7C8154 initiates a transaction on the target bus and the target responds with  
DEVSEL_L, the target can end the transaction with one of the following types  
of termination:  
!
!
!
!
Normal termination (upon de-assertion of FRAME_L)  
Target retry  
Target disconnect  
Target abort  
PI7C8154 handles these terminations in different ways, depending on the type of transaction  
being performed.  
2.11.3.1  
DELAYED WRITE TARGET TERMINATION RESPONSE  
When PI7C8154 initiates a delayed write transaction, the type of target termination received  
from the target can be passed back to the initiator. Table 2-7 shows the response to each type  
of target termination that occurs during a delayed write transaction.  
PI7C8154 repeats a delayed write transaction until one of the following conditions is met:  
!
!
!
PI7C8154 completes at least one data transfer.  
PI7C8154 receives a master abort.  
PI7C8154 receives a target abort.  
PI7C8154 makes 224 (default) or 232 (maximum) write attempts resulting in a response of  
target retry.

register for the secondary bus) is set and the delayed-write-non-delivery bit is not set. The  
delayed-write-non-delivery bit is bit 5 of P_SERR_L event disable register (offset 64h).  
PI7C8154 will report system error. See Section 5.4 for a description of system error  
conditions.  
2.11.3.2  
POSTED WRITE TARGET TERMINATION RESPONSE  
When PI7C8154 initiates a posted write transaction, the target termination cannot be passed  
back to the initiator. Table 2-8 shows the response to each type of target termination that  
occurs during a posted write transaction.

Set received-target-abort bit in the target interface status register. Assert  
P_SERR# if enabled, and set the signaled-system-error bit in primary status  
register.  
Note that when a target retry or target disconnect is returned and posted write data associated  
with that transaction remains in the write buffers, PI7C8154 initiates another write  
transaction to attempt to deliver the rest of the write data. If there is a target retry, the exact  
same address will be driven as for the initial write trans-action attempt. If a target disconnect  
is received, the address that is driven on a subsequent write transaction attempt will be  
updated to reflect the address of the current DWORD. If the initial write transaction is  
Memory-Write-and-Invalidate transaction, and a partial delivery of write data to the target is  
performed before a target disconnect is received, PI7C8154 will use the memory write  
command to deliver the rest of the write data. It is because an incomplete cache line will be  
transferred in the subsequent write transaction attempt.  
After the PI7C8154 makes 224 (default) write transaction attempts and fails to deliver all  
posted write data associated with that transaction, PI7C8154 asserts P_SERR_L if the  
primary SERR_L enable bit is set (bit 8 of command register for secondary bus) and posted-  
write-non-delivery bit is not set. The posted-write-non-delivery bit is the bit 2 of P_SERR_L  
event disable register (offset 64h). PI7C8154 will report system error. See Section 5.4 for a  
discussion of system error conditions.

ADDRESS DECODING  
PI7C8154 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 configuration  
space. This chapter describes these address ranges, as well as ISA-mode and VGA-  
addressing support.  
3.1  
ADDRESS RANGES  
PI7C8154 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:  
!
!
!
Two 32-bit I/O address ranges  
Two 32-bit memory-mapped I/O (non-prefetchable memory) ranges  
Two 32-bit prefetchable memory address ranges  
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.  
No address translation is required in PI7C8154. The addresses that are not marked for  
downstream are always forwarded upstream.

I/O ADDRESS DECODING  
PI7C8154 uses the following mechanisms that are defined in the 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 3.4  
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 configuration space. All I/O transactions initiated on the primary bus  
will be ignored if the I/O enable bit is not set. 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, PI7C8154 ignores all I/O and memory transactions initiated on the secondary  
bus.  
The master-enable bit also allows upstream forwarding of memory transactions  
if it is set.  
CAUTION  
If any configuration state affecting I/O transaction forwarding is changed by a configuration  
write operation on the primary bus at the same time that I/O transactions are ongoing on the  
secondary bus, PI7C8154 response to the secondary bus I/O transactions is not predictable.  
Configure the I/O base and limit address registers, ISA enable bit, VGA mode bit, and VGA  
snoop bit before setting I/O enable and master enable bits, and change them subsequently  
only when the primary and secondary PCI buses are idle.  
3.2.1  
I/O BASE AND LIMIT ADDRESS REGISTER  
PI7C8154 implements one set of I/O base and limit address registers in configuration space  
that define an I/O address range per port downstream forwarding. PI7C8154 supports 32-bit  
I/O addressing, which allows I/O addresses downstream of PI7C8154 to be mapped  
anywhere in a 4GB I/O address space.  
I/O transactions with addresses that fall inside the range defined by the I/O base and limit  
registers are forwarded downstream from the primary PCI bus to the secondary PCI bus. I/O  
transactions with addresses that fall outside this range are forwarded upstream from the  
secondary PCI bus to the primary PCI bus.  
The I/O range can be turned off by setting the I/O base address to a value greater than that of  
the I/O limit address. When the I/O range is turned off, all I/O trans-actions are forwarded  
upstream, and no I/O transactions are forwarded downstream. The I/O range has a minimum  
granularity of 4KB and is aligned on a 4KB boundary. The maximum I/O range is 4GB in  
size. The I/O base register consists of an 8-bit field at configuration address 1Ch, and a 16-  
bit field at address 30h. The top 4 bits of the 8-bit field define bits [15:12] of the I/O base  
Page 45 of 110

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
address. The bottom 4 bits read only as 1h to indicate that PI7C8154 supports 32-bit I/O  
addressing. Bits [11:0] of the base address are assumed to be 0, which naturally aligns the  
base address to a 4KB boundary. 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.  
3.2.2  
ISA MODE  
PI7C8154 supports ISA mode by providing an ISA enable bit in the bridge control register in  
configuration space. ISA mode modifies the response of PI7C8154 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 PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 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 PI7C8154 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.  
3.3  
MEMORY ADDRESS DECODING  
PI7C8154 has three mechanisms for defining memory address ranges for forwarding of  
memory transactions:

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 3.4.1 describes VGA mode. To  
enable downstream forwarding of memory transactions, the memory enable bit must be set  
in the command register in configuration space. To enable upstream forwarding of memory  
transactions, the master-enable bit must be set in the command register. The master-enable  
bit also allows upstream forwarding of I/O transactions if it is set.  
CAUTION  
If any 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, 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 master enable bits, and change them subsequently only when the  
primary and secondary PCI buses are idle.  
3.3.1  
MEMORY-MAPPED I/O BASE AND LIMIT ADDRESS REGISTERS  
Memory-mapped I/O is also referred to as non-prefetchable memory. Memory addresses that  
cannot automatically be pre-fetched but that can be conditionally pre-fetched based on  
command type should be mapped into this space. Read transactions to non-prefetchable  
space may exhibit side effects; this space may have non-memory-like behavior. PI7C8154  
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 PI7C8154 uses to determine when to forward memory  
commands. PI7C8154 forwards a memory transaction from the primary to the secondary  
interface if the transaction address falls within the memory-mapped I/O address range.  
PI7C8154 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 lowest 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 lowest 20 bits of the memory-mapped I/O limit address  
are assumed to be FFFFFh, which results in an alignment to the top of a 1MB block.

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
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.  
3.3.2  
PREFETCHABLE MEMORY BASE AND LIMIT ADDRESS  
REGISTERS  
Locations accessed in the prefetchable memory address range must have true memory-like  
behavior and must not exhibit side effects when read. This means that extra reads to a  
prefetchable memory location must have no side effects. PI7C8154 pre-fetches for all types  
of memory read commands in this address space.  
The prefetchable memory base address and prefetchable memory limit address registers  
define an address range that PI7C8154 uses to determine when to forward memory  
commands. PI7C8154 forwards a memory transaction from the primary to the secondary  
interface if the transaction address falls within the prefetchable memory address range.  
PI7C8154 ignores memory transactions initiated on the secondary interface that fall into this  
address range. PI7C8154 does not respond to any transactions that fall outside this address  
range on the primary interface and forwards those transactions upstream from the secondary  
interface (provided that they do not fall into the memory-mapped I/O range or  
are not forwarded by the VGA mechanism).  
The prefetchable memory range supports 64-bit addressing and provides additional registers  
to define the upper 32 bits of the memory address range, the prefetchable memory base  
address upper 32 bits register, and the prefetchable memory limit address upper 32 bits  
register. For address comparison, a single address cycle (32-bit address) prefetchable  
memory transaction is treated like a 64-bit address transaction where the upper 32 bits of the  
address are equal to 0. This upper 32-bit value of 0 is compared to the prefetchable memory  
base address upper 32 bits register and the prefetchable memory limit address upper 32 bits  
register. The prefetchable memory base address upper 32 bits register must be 0 to pass any  
single address cycle transactions downstream.  
Prefetchable memory address range has a granularity and alignment of 1MB. Maximum  
memory address range is 4GB when 32-bit addressing is being used. 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  
26h. The top 12 bits of each of these registers correspond to bits [31:20] of the memory  
address. The lowest 4 bits are hardwired to 1h. The lowest 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 lowest 20 bits of the prefetchable memory limit address are assumed to  
be FFFFFh, 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.  
3.3.3  
PREFETCHABLE MEMORY 64-BIT ADDRESSING REGISTERS  
PI7C8154 supports 64-bit memory address decoding for forwarding of dual address memory  
transactions. Dual address cycle is used for 64-bit addressing. The first address phase of the  
dual address cycle contains the low 32 bits of the address and the second address phase  
contains the high 32 bits. The high 32 bits must never be 0 during a dual address cycle.  
The prefetchable memory address range is defined by implementing the prefetchable  
memory base address upper 32 bits register and the prefetchable memory limit address upper  
32 bits register. The prefetchable address space can be defined as either:  
!
!
!
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 bus resides entirely in the first 4GB of  
memory, both upper 32 bit register must be set to 0. PI7C8154 then ignores all dual address  
cycles initiated on the primary interface and forwards all dual address transactions initiated  
on the secondary interface upstream.  
If the prefetchable memory space on the secondary bus resides entirely above the first 4GB  
of memory, both the prefetchable memory base address upper 32 bit register and the  
prefetchable memory limit address upper 32 bit register must be initialized to nonzero  
values. PI7C8154 ignores all single address memory transactions initiated on the primary  
and forwards all single address memory transactions initiated on the secondary upstream,  
unless the memory falls within the memory mapped I/O or VGA memory range. A dual  
address memory transaction is forwarded downstream from the primary 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. If the dual address cycle initiated on the secondary falls outside this  
address range, it is forwarded upstream to the primary. PI7C8154 does not respond to a dual  
address cycle initiated on the primary that falls outside this address range, or to a dual  
address cycle initiated on the secondary that falls within the address range.  
If the prefetchable memory space on the secondary bus resides on top of the 4GB boundary,  
the prefetchable memory base address upper 32 bit register is set to 0 and the prefetchable  
memory limit address upper 32 bit 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 is forwarded downstream if the address is  
Page 49 of 110

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
greater than or equal to the base address. A transaction initiated on the secondary is  
forwarded upstream if the address is less than the base address. Dual address cycles are  
compared to the prefetchable memory limit address and the prefetchable memory limit  
address upper 32 bit register. If the address of the dual address cycle is less than or equal to  
the limit, the transaction is forwarded downstream from the primary and is ignored on the  
secondary. If the address of the dual address cycle is greater than this limit, the transaction  
is ignored on the primary and is forwarded upstream from the secondary.  
The prefetchable memory base address upper 32 bit register is located at offset 28h of the  
configuration register and the prefetchable memory limit address upper 32 bit register is  
located at offset 2Ch. Both registers are reset to 0.  
3.4  
VGA SUPPORT  
PI7C8154 provides two modes for VGA support:  
!
!
VGA mode, supporting VGA-compatible addressing  
VGA snoop mode, supporting VGA palette forwarding  
3.4.1  
VGA MODE  
When a VGA-compatible device exists downstream from PI7C8154, set the VGA mode bit  
in the bridge control register in configuration space to enable VGA mode. When PI7C8154  
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 base and limit  
address registers. PI7C8154 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 non-prefetchable. PI7C8154  
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 are in the range of 3B0h–3BBh and 3C0h–3DFh I/O. These I/O  
addresses are aliases every 1KB throughout the first 64KB of I/O space. This means that  
address bits [5:10] are not decoded and can be any value, while address bits [31:16] must be  
all 0’s. VGA BIOS addresses starting at C0000h are not decoded in VGA mode.  
3.4.2  
VGA SNOOP MODE  
PI7C8154 provides VGA snoop mode, allowing for VGA palette write transactions to be  
forwarded downstream. This mode is used when a graphics device downstream from  
PI7C8154 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  
Page 50 of 110

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
PI7C8154 claims VGA palette write transactions by asserting DEVSEL_L in VGA snoop  
mode.  
When VGA snoop bit is set, PI7C8154 forwards downstream transactions within the 3C6h,  
3C8h and 3C9h I/O addresses space. 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  
aliases every 1KB throughout the first 64KB of I/O space.  
Note: If both the VGA mode bit and the VGA snoop bit are set, PI7C8154 behaves in the  
same way as if only the VGA mode bit were set.

TRANSACTION ORDERING  
To maintain data coherency and consistency, PI7C8154 complies with the ordering rules set  
forth in the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.2, for transactions crossing the bridge.  
This chapter describes the ordering rules that control transaction forwarding across  
PI7C8154.  
4.1  
TRANSACTIONS GOVERNED BY ORDERING RULES  
Ordering relationships are established for the following classes of transactions crossing  
PI7C8154:  
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, comprised of I/O write and configuration write  
transactions.  
Delayed write completion transactions complete on the target bus, and the target response is  
queued in the 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, &  
configuration read transactions.  
Page 51 of 110  
May 29, 2003 – Revision 1.02  
PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
Delayed read completion transactions complete on the target bus, and the read data is queued  
in the 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.  
PI7C8154 does not combine or merge write transactions:  
!
PI7C8154 does not combine separate write transactions into a single write  
transaction—this optimization is best implemented in the originating master.  
!
PI7C8154 does not merge bytes on separate masked write transactions to the same  
DWORD address—this optimization is also best implemented in the originating  
master.  
!
PI7C8154 does not collapse sequential write transactions to the same address into a  
single write transaction—the PCI Local Bus Specification does not permit this  
combining of transactions.  
4.2  
GENERAL ORDERING GUIDELINES  
Independent transactions on primary and secondary buses have a relationship only when  
those transactions cross PI7C8154.  
The following general ordering guidelines govern transactions crossing PI7C8154:  
!
!
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 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. PI7C8154 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 non-locked, non-posted transaction as a master. This is true for  
PI7C8154 and must also be true for other bus agents. Otherwise, a deadlock can occur.  
PI7C8154 accepts posted write transactions, regardless of the state of completion of any  
delayed transactions being forwarded across PI7C8154.

NCotoem:pTlehtioensuperscript accompanying some of the table entries refers to any applicable  
ordering rule listed in this section. Many entries are not governed by these ordering rules;  
therefore, the implementation can choose whether or not the transactions pass each other.  
The entries without superscripts reflect the PI7C8154’s implementation choices.  
The following ordering rules describe the transaction relationships. Each ordering rule is  
followed by an explanation, and the ordering rules are referred to by number in Table 4-1.  
These ordering rules apply to posted write transactions, delayed write and read requests, and  
delayed write and read completion transactions crossing PI7C8154 in the same direction.  
Note that delayed completion transactions cross PI7C8154 in the direction opposite that of  
the corresponding delayed requests.  
1. Posted write transactions must complete on the target bus in the order in which they were  
received on the initiator bus. The subsequent posted write transaction can be setting a flag  
that covers the data in the first posted write transaction; if the second transaction were to  
complete before the first transaction, a device checking the flag could subsequently consume  
stale data.  
2. A delayed read request traveling in the same direction as a previously queued posted  
write transaction must push the posted write data ahead of it. The posted write transaction  
must complete on the target bus before the delayed read request can be attempted on the  
target bus. The read transaction can be to the same location as the write data, so if the read  
transaction were to pass the write transaction, it would return stale data.  
3. A delayed read completion must ‘‘pull’’ ahead of previously queued posted write data  
traveling in the same direction. In this case, the read data is traveling in the same direction as  
the write data, and the initiator of the read transaction is on the same side of PI7C8154 as the  
target of the write transaction. The posted write transaction must complete to the target  
before the read data is returned  
to the initiator. The read transaction can be a reading to a status register of the initiator of the  
posted write data and therefore should not complete until the write transaction is complete.  
4. Delayed write requests cannot pass previously queued posted write data. For posted  
memory write transactions, the delayed write transaction can set a flag that covers the data in  
the posted write transaction. If the delayed write request were to complete before the earlier  
posted write transaction, a device checking the flag could subsequently consume stale data.  
5. Posted write transactions must be given opportunities to pass delayed read and write  
requests and completions. Otherwise, deadlocks may occur when some bridges which  
support delayed transactions and other bridges which do not support delayed transactions are

being used in the same system. A fairness algorithm is used to arbitrate between the posted  
write queue and the delayed transaction queue.  
4.4  
DATA SYNCHRONIZATION  
Data synchronization refers to the relationship between interrupt signaling and data delivery.  
The PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.2, 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.  
PI7C8154 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.  
5
ERROR HANDLING  
PI7C8154 checks, forwards, and generates parity on both the primary and secondary  
interfaces. To maintain transparency, PI7C8154 always tries to forward the existing parity  
condition on one bus to the other bus, along with address and data. PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 implements the following:  
!
!
!
PERR_L and SERR_L signals on both the primary and secondary interfaces  
Primary status and secondary status registers  
The device-specific P_SERR_L event disable register  
This chapter provides detailed information about how PI7C8154 handles errors.  
It also describes error status reporting and error operation disabling.  
5.1  
ADDRESS PARITY ERRORS  
PI7C8154 checks address parity for all transactions on both buses, for all address and all bus  
commands. When PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 does not claim  
the transaction with P_DEVSEL_L; this may allow the transaction to terminate in a

5.2  
DATA PARITY ERRORS  
When forwarding transactions, PI7C8154 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 PI7C8154.  
5.2.1  
CONFIGURATION WRITE TRANSACTIONS TO  
CONFIGURATION SPACE  
When PI7C8154 detects a data parity error during a Type 0 configuration write transaction to  
PI7C8154 configuration space, the following events occur:  
If the parity error response bit is set in the command register, PI7C8154 asserts P_TRDY_L  
and writes the data to the configuration register. PI7C8154 also asserts P_PERR_L. If the  
parity error response bit is not set, PI7C8154 does not assert P_PERR_L.  
PI7C8154 sets the detected parity error bit in the status register, regardless of the state of the  
parity error response bit.

5.2.2  
READ TRANSACTIONS  
When PI7C8154 detects a parity error during a read transaction, the target drives data and  
data parity, and the initiator checks parity and conditionally asserts PERR_L.  
For downstream transactions, when PI7C8154 detects a read data parity error on the  
secondary bus, the following events occur:  
!
PI7C8154 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.  
!
!
PI7C8154 sets the detected parity error bit in the secondary status register.  
PI7C8154 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.  
!
PI7C8154 forwards the bad parity with the data back to the initiator on the primary bus.  
If the data with the bad parity is pre-fetched 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.  
!
PI7C8154 completes the transaction normally.  
For upstream transactions, when PI7C8154 detects a read data parity error on the primary  
bus, the following events occur:  
!
PI7C8154 asserts P_PERR_L 2 cycles following the data transfer, if the primary  
interface parity error response bit is set in the command register.  
!
!
PI7C8154 sets the detected parity error bit in the primary status register.  
PI7C8154 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.  
!
PI7C8154 forwards the bad parity with the data back to the initiator on the secondary  
bus. If the data with the bad parity is pre-fetched 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.  
!
PI7C8154 completes the transaction normally.  
PI7C8154 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_L two cycles after the data transfer occurs. It is assumed that the initiator takes  
responsibility for handling a parity error condition; therefore, when PI7C8154 detects  
PERR_L asserted while returning read data to the initiator, PI7C8154 does not take any  
further action and completes the transaction normally.

DELAYED WRITE TRANSACTIONS

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
When PI7C8154 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_L.  
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 PI7C8154 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 PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 asserts  
TRDY_L to the initiator and the transaction is not queued. If multiple data phases are  
requested, STOP_L is also asserted to cause a target disconnect. Two cycles after the  
data transfer, PI7C8154 also asserts PERR_L.  
!
!
If the parity-error-response bit is not set, PI7C8154 returns a target retry.  
It queues the transaction as usual. PI7C8154 does not assert PERR_L.  
In this case, the initiator repeats the transaction.  
PI7C8154 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 re-  
attempts 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 assertion).  
For downstream transactions, when PI7C8154 is delivering data to the target on the  
secondary bus and S_PERR_L is asserted by the target, the following events occur:  
!
PI7C8154 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.  
!
PI7C8154 captures the parity error condition to forward it back to the initiator on the  
primary bus.  
Similarly, for upstream transactions, when PI7C8154 is delivering data to the target on the  
primary bus and P_PERR_L is asserted by the target, the following events occur:  
!
PI7C8154 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.  
!
PI7C8154 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 re-attempt 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 PI7C8154 has write status to return, the following events occur:  
!
PI7C8154 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.  
!
!
PI7C8154 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 PI7C8154 has write status to return, the following events occur:  
!
PI7C8154 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 (offset  
3Ch).  
!
!
PI7C8154 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, 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:  
!
PI7C8154 asserts P_PERR_L two cycles after the data transfer, if the following are both  
true:  
!
!
The parity-error-response bit is set in the command register of the primary interface.  
The parity-error-response bit is set in the bridge control register of the secondary  
interface.  
!
PI7C8154 completes the transaction normally.  
For upstream transactions, when 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:

POSTED WRITE TRANSACTIONS  
During downstream posted write transactions, when PI7C8154 responds as a target, it detects  
a data parity error on the initiator (primary) bus and the following events occur:  
!
PI7C8154 asserts P_PERR_L two cycles after the data transfer, if the parity error  
response bit is set in the command register of primary interface.  
!
!
!
PI7C8154 sets the parity error detected bit in the status register of the primary interface.  
PI7C8154 captures and forwards the bad parity condition to the secondary bus.  
PI7C8154 completes the transaction normally.  
Similarly, during upstream posted write transactions, when PI7C8154 responds as a target, it  
detects a data parity error on the initiator (secondary) bus, the following events occur:  
!
PI7C8154 asserts S_PERR_L two cycles after the data transfer, if the parity error  
response bit is set in the bridge control register of the secondary interface.  
!
PI7C8154 sets the parity error detected bit in the status register of the secondary  
interface.  
!
!
PI7C8154 captures and forwards the bad parity condition to the primary bus.  
PI7C8154 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:  
!
PI7C8154 sets the data parity detected bit in the status register of secondary interface, if  
the parity error response bit is set in the bridge control register of the secondary  
interface.  
!
PI7C8154 asserts P_SERR_L and sets the signaled system error bit in the status register,  
if all the following conditions are met:

The SERR_L enable bit is set in the command register.  
The posted write parity error bit of P_SERR_L event disable register is not set.

The parity error response bit is set in the command register of the primary interface.  
PI7C8154 has not detected the parity error on the secondary (initiator) bus, which  
the parity error is not forwarded from the secondary bus to the primary bus.  
Assertion of P_SERR_L is used to signal the parity error condition when 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 has  
forwarded from the initiating bus to the target bus, P_SERR_L will not be asserted.

DATA PARITY ERROR REPORTING SUMMARY  
In the previous sections, the responses of PI7C8154 to data parity errors are presented  
according to the type of transaction in progress. This section organizes the responses of  
PI7C8154 to data parity errors according to the status bits that PI7C8154 sets and the signals  
that it asserts.  
Table 5-1 shows setting the detected parity error bit in the status register, corresponding to  
the primary interface. This bit is set when PI7C8154 detects a parity error on the primary  
interface.

SYSTEM ERROR (SERR_L) REPORTING  
PI7C8154 uses the P_SERR_L signal to report conditionally a number of system error  
conditions in addition to the special case parity error conditions described in Section 5.2.3.  
Whenever assertion of P_SERR_L is discussed in this document, it is assumed that the  
following conditions apply:  
!
For PI7C8154 to assert P_SERR_L for any reason, the SERR_L enable bit must be set  
in the command register.  
!
Whenever PI7C8154 asserts P_SERR_L, PI7C8154 must also set the signaled system  
error bit in the status register.  
In compliance with the PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture Specification, PI7C8154 asserts  
P_SERR_L when it detects the secondary SERR_L input, S_SERR_L, asserted and the  
SERR_L forward enable bit is set in the bridge control register. In addition, PI7C8154 also  
sets the received system error bit in the secondary status register.  
PI7C8154 also conditionally asserts P_SERR_L for any of the following reasons:

Master timeout on delayed transaction  
The device-specific P_SERR_L status register reports the reason for the 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_L enable bit for that event in the  
bridge control register and therefore does not have a device-specific disable bit.

EXCLUSIVE ACCESS  
This chapter describes the use of the LOCK_L signal to implement exclusive access to a  
target for transactions that cross PI7C8154.  
6.1  
CONCURRENT LOCKS  
The primary and secondary bus lock mechanisms operate concurrently except when a locked  
transaction crosses PI7C8154. 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.  
6.2  
ACQUIRING EXCLUSIVE ACCESS ACROSS PI7C8154  
For any PCI bus, before acquiring access to the LOCK_L 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_L signal must be de-asserted.  
The initiator leaves the LOCK_L signal de-asserted during the address phase and asserts  
LOCK_L one clock cycle later. Once a data transfer is completed from the target, the target  
lock has been achieved.  
6.2.1  
LOCKED TRANSACTIONS IN DOWNSTREAM DIRECTION  
Locked transactions can cross PI7C8154 only in the downstream direction, from the primary  
bus to the secondary bus.  
Page 65 of 110  
May 29, 2003 – Revision 1.02  
PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
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  
PI7C8154 detects on the primary bus, an initial locked transaction intended for a target on  
the secondary bus, PI7C8154 samples the address, transaction type, byte enable bits, and  
parity, as described in Section 2.7.4. It also samples the lock signal. If there is a lock  
established between 2 ports or the target bus is already locked by another master, then the  
current lock cycle is retried without forward. 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 memory read transaction. Subsequent locked  
transactions can be memory read or memory 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 pre-fetched.  
When the locked delayed memory read request is queued, PI7C8154 does not queue any  
more transactions until the locked sequence is finished. PI7C8154 signals a target retry to all  
transactions initiated subsequent to the locked read transaction that are intended for targets  
on the other side of PI7C8154. PI7C8154 allows any transactions queued before the locked  
transaction to complete before initiating the locked transaction.  
When the locked delayed memory read request transaction moves to the head of the delayed  
transaction queue, PI7C8154 initiates the transaction as a locked read transaction by de-  
asserting LOCK_L on the target bus during the first address phase, and by asserting  
LOCK_L one cycle later. If LOCK_L is already asserted (used by another initiator),  
PI7C8154 waits to request access to the secondary bus until LOCK_L is de-asserted when  
the target bus is idle. Note that the existing lock on the target bus could not have crossed  
PI7C8154. Otherwise, the pending queued locked transaction would not have been queued.  
When PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 transfers the read data back to the  
initiator, and the lock is then also established on the primary bus.  
For PI7C8154 to recognize and respond to the initiator, the initiator’s subsequent attempts of  
the read transaction must use the locked transaction sequence (de-assert LOCK_L during  
address phase, and assert LOCK_L one cycle later). If the LOCK_L sequence is not used in  
subsequent attempts, a master timeout condition may result. When a master timeout  
condition occurs, SERR_L is conditionally asserted (see Section 5.4), the read data and  
queued read transaction are discarded, and the LOCK_L signal is de-asserted on the target  
bus.  
Once the intended target has been locked, any subsequent locked transactions initiated on the  
initiator bus that are forwarded by PI7C8154 are driven as locked transactions on the target  
bus.  
The first transaction to establish LOCK_L must be Memory Read. If the first transaction is  
not Memory read, the following transactions behave accordingly:  
!

I/O Read induces master abort  
I/O Write induces master abort  
Memory Write induces master abort  
When PI7C8154 receives a target abort or a master abort in response to the delayed locked  
read transaction, this status is passed back to the initiator, and no locks are established on  
either the target or the initiator bus. PI7C8154 resumes forwarding unlocked transactions in  
both directions.  
6.2.2  
LOCKED TRANSACTION IN UPSTREAM DIRECTION  
PI7C8154 ignores upstream lock and transactions. PI7C8154 will pass these transactions as  
normal transactions without lock established.  
6.3  
ENDING EXCLUSIVE ACCESS  
After the lock has been acquired on both initiator and target buses, PI7C8154 must maintain  
the lock on the 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. PI7C8154  
does not know whether the current transaction is the last one in a sequence of locked  
transactions until the initiator de-asserts the LOCK_L signal at  
end of the transaction.  
When the last locked transaction is a delayed transaction, PI7C8154 has already completed  
the transaction on the target bus. In this example, as soon as PI7C8154 detects that the  
initiator has relinquished the LOCK_L signal by sampling it in the de-asserted state while  
FRAME_L is de-asserted, PI7C8154 de-asserts the LOCK_L signal on the target bus as soon  
as possible. Because of this behavior, LOCK_L may not be de-asserted until several cycles  
after the last locked transaction has been completed on the target bus. As soon as PI7C8154  
has de-asserted 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, PI7C8154 de-asserts LOCK_L  
on the target bus at the end of the transaction because the lock was relinquished at the end of  
the write transaction on the initiator bus.  
When PI7C8154 receives a target abort or a master abort in response to a locked delayed  
transaction, PI7C8154 returns a target abort or a master abort when the initiator repeats the  
locked transaction. The initiator must then de-assert LOCK_L at the end of the transaction.  
PI7C8154 sets the appropriate status bits, flagging the abnormal target termination condition  
(see Section 2.11). Normal forwarding of unlocked posted and delayed transactions is  
resumed.

2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
When PI7C8154 receives a target abort or a master abort in response to a locked posted write  
transaction, PI7C8154 cannot pass back that status to the initiator. PI7C8154 asserts  
SERR_L on the initiator bus when a target abort or a master abort is received during a  
locked posted write transaction, if the SERR_L enable bit is set in the command register.  
Signal SERR_L is asserted for the master abort condition if the master abort mode bit is set  
in the bridge control register (see Section 5.4).

PCI BUS ARBITRATION  
PI7C8154 must arbitrate for use of the primary bus when forwarding upstream transactions.  
Also, it must arbitrate for use of the secondary bus when forwarding downstream  
transactions. The arbiter for the primary bus resides external to PI7C8154, typically on the  
motherboard. For the secondary PCI bus, PI7C8154 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.  
7.1  
PRIMARY PCI BUS ARBITRATION  
PI7C8154 implements a request output pin, P_REQ_L, and a grant input pin, P_GNT_L, for  
primary PCI bus arbitration. PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 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  
PI7C8154 on the primary PCI bus, PI7C8154 de-asserts P_REQ_L for two PCI clock cycles.  
For all cycles through the bridge, P_REQ_L is not asserted until the transaction request has  
been completely queued. When P_GNT_L is asserted LOW by the primary bus arbiter after  
PI7C8154 has asserted P_REQ_L, PI7C8154 initiates a transaction on the primary bus  
during the next PCI clock cycle. When P_GNT_L is asserted to PI7C8154 when P_REQ_L  
is not asserted, PI7C8154 parks P_AD, P_CBE, and P_PAR by driving them to valid logic  
levels. When the primary bus is parked at PI7C8154 and PI7C8154 has a transaction to  
initiate on the primary bus, PI7C8154 starts the transaction if P_GNT_L was asserted during  
the previous cycle.  
7.2  
SECONDARY PCI BUS ARBITRATION  
PI7C8154 implements an internal secondary PCI bus arbiter. This arbiter supports eight  
external masters on the secondary bus in addition to PI7C8154. The internal arbiter can be  
disabled, and an external arbiter can be used instead for secondary bus arbitration.  
7.2.1  
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. PI7C8154 has nine secondary bus request input pins, S_REQ_L[8:0], and has nine  
Page 68 of 110

ADVANCE INFORMATION  
secondary bus output grant pins, S_GNT_L[8:0], to support external secondary bus masters.  
The 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.  
The secondary arbiter supports a 2-sets programmable 2-level rotating algorithm with each  
set taking care of 4 requests / grants. Each set of masters can be assigned to a high priority  
group and a low priority group. The low priority group as a whole represents one entry in the  
high priority group; that is, if the high priority group consists of n masters, then in at least  
every n+1 transactions the highest priority is assigned to the low priority group. Priority  
rotates evenly among the low priority group. Therefore, members of the high priority group  
can be serviced n transactions out of n+1, while one member of the low priority group is  
serviced once every n+1 transactions. Figure 7-1shows an example of an internal arbiter  
where four masters, including PI7C8154, are in the high priority group, and five masters are  
in the low priority group. Using this example, if all requests are always asserted, the highest  
priority rotates among the masters in the following fashion (high priority members are given  
in italics, low priority members, in boldface type): B, m0, m1, m2, m3, B, m0, m1, m2, m4,  
B, m0, m1, m2, m5, B, m0, m1, m2, m6 and so on.

Each bus master, including PI7C8154, can be configured to be in either the low priority  
group or the high priority group by setting the corresponding priority bit in the arbiter-  
control register. The arbiter-control register is located at offset 40h. Each master has a  
corresponding bit. If the bit is set to 1, the master is assigned to the high priority group. If the  
bit is set to 0, the master is assigned to the low priority group. If all the masters are assigned  
to one group, the algorithm defaults to a straight rotating priority among all the masters.  
After reset, all external masters are assigned to the low priority group, and PI7C8154 is  
assigned to the high priority group. PI7C8154 receives highest priority on the target bus  
every other transaction, and priority rotates evenly among the other masters.  
Priorities are re-evaluated every time S_FRAME_L is asserted at the start of each new  
transaction on the secondary PCI bus. From this point until the time that the next transaction  
starts, the arbiter asserts the grant signal corresponding to the highest priority request that is  
asserted. If a grant for a particular request is asserted, and a higher priority request  
subsequently asserts, the arbiter de-asserts the asserted grant signal and asserts the grant  
corresponding to the new higher priority request on the next PCI clock cycle. When  
priorities are re-evaluated, the highest priority is assigned to the next highest priority master  
relative to the master that initiated the previous transaction. The master that initiated the last  
transaction now has the lowest priority in its group.

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
If PI7C8154 detects that an initiator has failed to assert S_FRAME_L after 16 cycles of both  
grant assertion and a secondary idle bus condition, the arbiter de-asserts the grant.  
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 de-asserts another. It de-asserts one grant and  
asserts the next grant, no earlier than one PCI clock cycle later. If the secondary PCI bus is  
busy, that is, S_FRAME_L or S_IRDY_L is asserted, the arbiter can be de-asserted one  
grant and asserted another grant during the same PCI clock cycle.  
7.2.2  
7.2.3  
PREEMPTION  
Preemption can be programmed to be either on or off, with the default to on (offset 4Ch, bit  
31=0). Time-to-preempt can be programmed to 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, or 64 (default is 0)  
clocks. If the current master occupies the bus and other masters are waiting, the current  
master will be preempted by removing its grant (GNT_L) after the next master waits for the  
time-to-preempt.  
SECONDARY BUS ARBITRATION USING AN EXTERNAL  
ARBITER  
The internal arbiter is disabled when the secondary bus central function control pin,  
S_CFN_L, is tied HIGH. An external arbiter must then be used.  
When S_CFN_L is tied HIGH, PI7C8154 reconfigures two pins to be external request and  
grant pins. The S_GNT_L[0] pin is reconfigured to be the external request pin because it’s  
an output. The S_REQ_L[0] pin is reconfigured to be the external grant pin because it’s an  
input. When an external arbiter is used, PI7C8154 uses the S_GNT_L[0] pin to request the  
secondary bus. When the reconfigured S_REQ_L[0] pin is asserted LOW after PI7C8154  
has asserted S_GNT_L[0], PI7C8154 initiates a transaction on the secondary bus one cycle  
later. If grant is asserted and PI7C8154 has not asserted the request, PI7C8154 parks AD,  
CBE and PAR pins by driving them to valid logic levels.  
The unused secondary bus grant outputs, S_GNT_L[8:1] are driven HIGH. The unused  
secondary bus request inputs, S_REQ_L[8:1], should be pulled HIGH.  
7.2.4  
BUS PARKING  
Bus parking refers to driving the AD[31:0], CBE[3:0], 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[31:0]  
and CBE[3:0] signals should be driven first, with the PAR signal driven one cycle later. The  
AD[63:32] and CBE[7:4] are not driven and need to be pulled up to a valid logic level  
through external resistors.  
PI7C8154 parks the primary bus only when P_GNT_L is asserted, P_REQ_L is de-asserted,  
and the primary PCI bus is idle. When P_GNT_L is de-asserted, PI7C8154 3-states the  
P_AD, P_CBE, and P_PAR signals on the next PCI clock cycle. If PI7C8154 is parking the

ADVANCE INFORMATION  
primary PCI bus and wants to initiate a transaction on that bus, then PI7C8154 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, PI7C8154 keeps the secondary bus grant asserted to a  
particular master until a new secondary bus request comes along. After reset, PI7C8154  
parks the secondary bus at itself until transactions start occurring on the secondary bus.  
Offset 48h, bit 1, can be set to 1 to park the secondary bus at PI7C8154. By default, offset  
48h, bit 1, is set to 0. If the internal arbiter is disabled, PI7C8154 parks the secondary bus  
only when the reconfigured grant signal, S_REQ_L[0], is asserted and the secondary bus is  
idle.

GENERAL PURPOSE I/O INTERFACE  
The PI7C8154 implements a 4-pin general purpose I/O interface. During normal operation,  
device specific configuration registers control the GPIO interface. 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.  
!
Along with the GPIO[3] pin, a live insertion bit can be used to bring the PI7C8154 to a  
halt through hardware, permitting live insertion of option cards behind the PI7C8154.  
8.1  
GPIO CONTROL REGISTERS  
During normal operation, the following device specific configuration registers control the  
GPIO interface:  
!
!
!
The GPIO output data register  
The GPIO output enable control register  
The GPIO input data register  
These registers consist of five 4-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 four bits of the output enable fields control whether each GPIO signal is input  
only or bi-directional. 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 tri-stated, and the  
pin is then input only. Writing zeroes to these registers has no effect. The reset 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 bi-directional.  
The output data fields also use the write-1-to-set and write-1-to-clear mode. 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 bi-directional. A type 0 configuration write operation is used to program  
these fields. The rest value for the output is 0.  
8.2  
SECONDARY CLOCK CONTROL  
The PI7C8154 uses the GPIO pins and the MSK_IN signal to input a 16-bit serial data  
stream. This data stream is shifted into the secondary clock control register and is used for  
selectively disabling secondary clock outputs.  
The serial data stream is shifted in as soon as P_RESET_L is detected deasserted and the  
secondary reset signal, S_RESET_L, is detected asserted. The deassertion of S_RESET_L is  
delayed until the PI7C8154 completes shifting in the clock mask data, which takes 23 clock  
cycles. After that, the GPIO pins can be used as general-purpose I/O pins.  
An external shift register should be used to load and shift the data. The GPIO pins are used  
for shift register control and serial data input. Table 8-1 shows the operation of the GPIO  
pins.

outputs or tied HIGH to force all secondary clock outputs HIGH. Table 8-2 shows the

The first 8 bits contain the PRSNT_L[1:0] signal values for four slots, and these bits control  
the S_CLKOUT[3:0] outputs. If one or both of the PRSNT_L[1:0] signals are 0, that  
indicates that a card is present in the slot and therefore the secondary clock for that slot is not  
masked. If these clocks are connected to devices and not to slots, one or both of the bits  
should be tied low to enable the clock.  
The next 5 bits are the clock mask for devices; each bit enables or disables the clock for one  
device. These bits control the S_CLKOUT[8:4] outputs: 0 enables the clock, and 1 disables  
the clock.  
Bit 13 is the clock enable bit for S_CLKOUT[9], which is connected to PI7C8154’s  
S_CLKIN input.  
If desired, the assignment of S_CLKOUT outputs to slots, devices, and PI7C8154’s  
S_CLKIN input can be rearranged from the assignment shown here. However, it is important  
that the serial data stream format match the assignment of S_CLKOUT.  
The 8 least significant bits are connected to the PRSNT_L pins for the slots. The next 5 bits  
are tied high to disable their respective secondary clocks because those clocks are not  
connected to anything. The next bit is tied LOW because that secondary clock output is  
connected to the PI7C8154 S_CLKIN input. When the secondary reset signal, S_RESET_L,  
is detected asserted and the primary reset signal, P_RESET_L, is detected deasserted,  
PI7C8154 drives GPIO[2] LOW for one cycle to load the clock mask inputs into the shift  
register. On the next cycle, PI7C8154 drives GPIO[2] HIGH to perform a shift operation.  
This shifts the clock mask into MSK_IN; the most significant bit is shifted in first, and the  
least significant bit is shifted in last.  
After the shift operation is complete, PI7C8154 tri-states the GPIO signals and deasserts  
S_RESET_L. PI7C8154 then ignores MSK_IN. Control of the GPIO signal now reverts to  
PI7C8154 GPIO control registers. The clock disable mask can be modified subsequently  
through a configuration write command to the secondary clock control register in device-  
specific configuration space.  
8.3  
LIVE INSERTION  
The GPIO[3] pin can be used, along with a live insertion mode bit, to disable transaction  
forwarding.  
To enable live insertion mode, the live insertion mode bit in the chip control register must be  
set to 1, and the output enable control for GPIO[3] must be set to input only in the GPIO  
output enable control register. When live insertion mode is enabled, whenever GPIO[3] is  
driven to a value of 1, the I/O enable, the memory enable, and the master enable bits are

ADVANCE INFORMATION  
internally masked to 0. This means that, as a target, PI7C8154 no longer accepts any I/O or  
memory transactions, on either interface. When read, the register bits still reflect the value  
originally written by a configuration write command; when GPIO[3] is deasserted, the  
internal enable bits return to their original value (as they appear when read from the  
command register). When this mode is enabled, as a master, PI7C8154 completes any posted  
write or delayed request transactions that have already been queued.  
Delayed completion transactions are not returned to the master in this mode because  
PI7C8154 is not responding to any I/O or memory transactions during this time. PI7C8154  
continues to accept Type 0 configuration transactions in live insertion mode. Once live  
insertion mode brings PI7C8154 to a halt and queued transactions are completed, the  
secondary reset bit in the bridge control register can be used to assert S_RESET_L, if  
desired, to reset and tri-state secondary bus devices, and to enable any live insertion  
hardware.

CLOCKS  
This chapter provides information about the clocks.  
9.1  
PRIMARY AND SECONDARY CLOCK INPUTS  
PI7C8154 implements a primary clock input for the PCI interface. The primary interface is  
synchronized to the primary clock input, P_CLK, and the secondary interface is  
synchronized to the secondary clock. The secondary clock operates at either the same  
frequency as the primary clock or at half of the frequency of the primary clock. PI7C8154  
operates at a maximum frequency of 66 MHz.  
9.2  
SECONDARY CLOCK OUTPUTS  
PI7C8154 has 10 secondary clock outputs, S_CLKOUT[9:0] that can be used as clock inputs  
for up to nine external secondary bus devices. The S_CLKOUT[9:0] outputs are derived  
from P_CLK. The secondary clock edges are delayed from P_CLK edges by a minimum of  
0ns. These are the rules for using secondary clocks:  
!
!
Each secondary clock output is limited to no more than one load.  
One of the secondary clocks must be used for the S_CLKIN.

Power-up reset. PI7C8154 performs the standard power-up reset  
functions as described in Section 11.  
PME_L signals are routed from downstream devices around PCI-to-PCI bridges. PME_L  
signals do not pass through PCI-to-PCI bridges.

RESET  
This chapter describes the primary interface, secondary interface, and chip reset  
mechanisms.  
11.1  
PRIMARY INTERFACE RESET  
PI7C8154 has a reset input, P_RESET_L. When P_RESET_L is asserted, the following  
events occur:  
!
PI7C8154 immediately tri-states all primary PCI interface signals. S_AD[31:0] and  
S_CBE[3:0] are driven LOW on the secondary interface and other control signals are  
tri-stated.  
!
!
!
PI7C8154 performs a chip reset.  
Registers that have default values are reset.  
PI7C8154 samples P_REQ64_L to determine whether the 64-bit extension is enabled on  
the primary.  
Page 75 of 110  
May 29, 2003 – Revision 1.02  
PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
P_RESET_L asserting and de-asserting edges can be asynchronous to P_CLK and  
S_CLKOUT. PI7C8154 is not accessible during P_RESET_L. After P_RESET_L is de-  
asserted, PI7C8154 remains inaccessible for 16 PCI clocks before the first configuration  
transaction can be accepted.  
11.2  
SECONDARY INTERFACE RESET  
PI7C8154 is responsible for driving the secondary bus reset signals, S_RESET_L. PI7C8154  
asserts S_RESET_L when any of the following conditions are met:  
Signal P_RESET_L is asserted. Signal S_RESET_L remains asserted as long as  
P_RESET_L is asserted and does not de-assert until P_RESET_L is de-asserted.  
The secondary reset bit in the bridge control register is set. Signal S_RESET_L remains  
asserted until a configuration write operation clears the secondary reset bit.  
The chip reset bit in the diagnostic control register is set. S_RESET_L remains asserted  
until a configuration write operation clears the secondary reset bit. The S_RESET_L in  
asserting and de-asserting edges can be asynchronous to P_CLK.  
When S_RESET_L is asserted, all secondary PCI interface control signals, including the  
secondary grant outputs, are immediately tri-stated. Signals S_AD[31:0], S_CBE[3:0],  
S_PAR are driven low for the duration of S_RESET_L assertion. S_REQ64_L is asserted  
LOW to indicate 64-bit extension support on the secondary. All posted write and delayed  
transaction data buffers are reset. Therefore, any transactions residing inside the buffers at  
the time of secondary reset are discarded.  
When S_RESET_L is asserted by means of the secondary reset bit, PI7C8154 remains  
accessible during secondary interface reset and continues to respond to accesses to its  
configuration space from the primary interface.  
11.3  
CHIP RESET  
The chip reset bit in the diagnostic control register can be used to reset the PI7C8154 and the  
secondary bus.  
When the chip reset bit is set, all registers and chip state are reset and all signals are tri-  
stated. S_RESET_L is asserted and the secondary reset bit is automatically set.  
S_RESET_L remains asserted until a configuration write operation clears the secondary reset  
bit. Within 20 PCI clock cycles after completion of the configuration write operation,  
PI7C8154’s reset bit automatically clears and PI7C8154 is ready for configuration.  
During reset, PI7C8154 is inaccessible.

BRIDGE BEHAVIOR  
A PCI cycle is initiated by asserting the FRAME_L signal. In a bridge, there are a number of  
possibilities. Those possibilities are summarized in the table below:

to be posted, otherwise return with a retry.  
It then passes the cycle to the appropriate  
port. When the cycle is complete on the  
target port, it will wait for the initiator to  
repeat the same cycle and end with normal  
termination.

ABNORMAL TERMINATION (INITIATED BY BRIDGE  
MASTER)  
13.2.1  
MASTER ABORT  
Master abort indicates that when PI7C8154 acts as a master and receives no response (i.e.,  
no target asserts DEVSEL_L or S_DEVSEL_L) from a target, the bridge deasserts  
FRAME_L and then de-asserts IRDY_L.  
13.2.2  
PARITY AND ERROR REPORTING  
Parity must be checked for all addresses and write data. Parity is defined on the P_PAR,  
P_PAR64, S_PAR, and S_PAR64 signals. Parity should be even (i. e. an even number  
of‘1’s) across AD, CBE, and PAR. Parity information on PAR is valid the cycle after AD  
and CBE are valid. For reads, even parity must be generated using the initiators CBE signals  
combined with the read data. Again, the PAR signal corresponds to read data from the  
previous data phase cycle.

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
13.2.3  
REPORTING PARITY ERRORS  
For all address phases, if a parity error is detected, the error should be reported on the  
P_SERR_L signal by asserting P_SERR_L for one cycle and then tri-stating two cycles after  
the bad address. P_SERR_L can only be asserted if bit 6 and 8 in the Command Register are  
both set to 1. For write data phases, a parity error should be reported by asserting the  
P_PERR_L signal two cycles after the data phase and should remain asserted for one cycle  
when bit 6 in the Command register is set to a 1. The target reports any type of data parity  
errors during write cycles, while the master reports data parity errors during read cycles.  
Detection of an address parity error will cause the PCI-to-PCI Bridge target to not claim the  
bus (P_DEVSEL_L remains inactive) and the cycle will then terminate with a Master Abort.  
When the bridge is acting as master, a data parity error during a read cycle results in the  
bridge master initiating a Master Abort.  
13.2.4  
SECONDARY IDSEL MAPPING  
When PI7C8154 detects a Type 1 configuration transaction for a device connected to  
the secondary, it translates the Type 1 transaction to Type 0 transaction on the downstream  
interface. Type 1 configuration format uses a 5-bit field at P_AD[15:11] as a device number.  
This is translated to S_AD[31:16] by PI7C8154.

IEEE 1149.1 COMPATIBLE JTAG CONTROLLER  
An IEEE 1149.1 compatible Test Access Port (TAP) controller and associated TAP pins are  
provided to support boundary scan in PI7C8154 for board-level continuity test and  
diagnostics. The TAP pins assigned are TCK, TDI, TDO, TMS and TRST_L. All digital  
input, output, input/output pins are tested except TAP pins.  
The IEEE 1149.1 Test Logic consists of a TAP controller, an instruction register, and  
a group of test data registers including Bypass and Boundary Scan registers. The TAP  
controller is a synchronous 16-state machine driven by the Test Clock (TCK) and the Test  
Mode Select (TMS) pins. An independent power on reset circuit is provided to ensure the  
machine is in TEST_LOGIC_RESET state at power-up. The JTAG signal lines are not  
active when the PCI resource is operating PCI bus cycles.  
PI7C8154 implements 3 basic instructions: BYPASS, SAMPLE/PRELOAD, and EXTEST.  
14.1  
BOUNDARY SCAN ARCHITECTURE  
Boundary-scan test logic consists of a boundary-scan register and support logic. These are  
accessed through a Test Access Port (TAP). The TAP provides a simple serial interface that  
allows all processor signal pins to be driven and/or sampled, thereby providing direct control  
and monitoring of processor pins at the system level.  
This mode of operation is valuable for design debugging and fault diagnosis since it permits  
examination of connections not normally accessible to the test system. The following  
subsections describe the boundary-scan test logic elements: TAP pins, instruction register,

test data registers and TAP controller. Figure 14-1 illustrates how these pieces fit together to  
form the JTAG unit.  
Figure 14-1 TEST ACCESS PORT BLOCK DIAGRAM  
14.1.1  
14.1.2  
TAP PINS  
The PI7C8154’s TAP pins form a serial port composed of four input connections (TMS,  
TCK, TRST_L and TDI) and one output connection (TDO). These pins are described in  
Table 14-1. The TAP pins provide access to the instruction register and the test data  
registers.  
INSTRUCTION REGISTER  
The Instruction Register (IR) holds instruction codes. These codes are shifted in through the  
Test Data Input (TDI) pin. The instruction codes are used to select the specific test operation  
to be performed and the test data register to be accessed.  
The instruction register is a parallel-loadable, master/slave-configured 5-bit wide, serial-shift  
register with latched outputs. Data is shifted into and out of the IR serially through the TDI  
pin clocked by the rising edge of TCK. The shifted-in instruction becomes active upon  
latching from the master stage to the slave stage. At that time the IR outputs along with the  
TAP finite state machine outputs are decoded to select and control the test data register  
selected by that instruction. Upon latching, all actions caused by any previous instructions  
terminate.  
The instruction determines the test to be performed, the test data register to be accessed, or  
both. The IR is two bits wide. When the IR is selected, the most significant bit is connected  
to TDI, and the least significant bit is connected to TDO. The value presented on the TDI pin  
is shifted into the IR on each rising edge of TCK. The TAP controller captures fixed parallel  
data (1101 binary). When a new instruction is shifted in through TDI, the value 1101(binary)  
Page 98 of 110  
May 29, 2003 – Revision 1.02  
PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
is always shifted out through TDO, least significant bit first. This helps identify instructions  
in a long chain of serial data from several devices.  
Upon activation of the TRST_L reset pin, the latched instruction asynchronously changes to  
the id code instruction. When the TAP controller moves into the test state other than by reset  
activation, the opcode changes as TDI shifts, and becomes active on the falling edge of TCK.  
14.2  
BOUNDARY SCAN INSTRUCTION SET  
The PI7C8154 supports three mandatory boundary-scan instructions (BYPASS, SAMPLE  
and EXTEST). Table 14-1 shown below lists the PI7C8154’s boundary-scan instruction  
codes.

Opcode (binary)  
Description  
00000  
EXTEST initiates testing of external circuitry, typically board-  
level interconnects and off chip circuitry. EXTEST connects the  
boundary-scan register between TDI and TDO. When EXTEST  
is selected, all output signal pin values are driven by values  
shifted into the boundary-scan register and may change only of  
the falling edge of TCK. Also, when EXTEST is selected, all  
system input pin states must be loaded into the boundary-scan  
register on the rising-edge of TCK.

SAMPLE performs two functions:  
!
A snapshot of the sample instruction is captured on the  
rising edge of TCK without interfering with normal  
operation. The instruction causes boundary-scan register  
cells associated with outputs to sample the value being  
driven.  
!
On the falling edge of TCK, the data held in the boundary-  
scan cells is transferred to the slave register cells.  
Typically, the slave latched data is applied to the system  
outputs via the EXTEST instruction.  
INTSCAN  
CLAMP  
00010  
00100  
Enable internal SCAN test  
CLAMP instruction allows the state of the signals driven from  
component pins to be determined from the boundary-scan  
register while the bypass register is selected as the serial path  
between TDI and TDO. The signal driven from the component  
pins will not change while the CLAMP instruction is selected.  
BYPASS instruction selects the one-bit bypass register between  
TDI and TDO pins. 0 (binary) is the only instruction that  
accesses the bypass register. While this instruction is in effect,  
all other test data registers have no effect on system operation.  
Test data registers with both test and system functionality  
performs their system functions when this instruction is selected.  
BYPASS  
11111  
14.3  
TAP TEST DATA REGISTERS  
The PI7C8154 contains two test data registers (bypass and boundary-scan). Each test data  
register selected by the TAP controller is connected serially between TDI and TDO. TDI is  
connected to the test data register’s most significant bit. TDO is connected to the least  
significant bit. Data is shifted one bit position within the register towards TDO on each  
rising edge of TCK. While any register is selected, data is transferred from TDI to TDO  
without inversion. The following sections describe each of the test data registers.

PI7C8154  
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE  
ADVANCE INFORMATION  
14.4  
14.5  
BYPASS REGISTER  
The required bypass register, a one-bit shift register, provides the shortest path between TDI  
and TDO when a bypass instruction is in effect. This allows rapid movement of test data to  
and from other components on the board. This path can be selected when no test operation is  
being performed on the PI7C8154.  
BOUNDARY-SCAN REGISTER  
The boundary-scan register contains a cell for each pin as well as control cells for I/O and  
the high-impedance pin.  
Table 14-2 shows the bit order of the PI7C8154 boundary-scan register. All table cells that  
contain “Control” select the direction of bi-directional pins or high-impedance output pins.  
When a “1” is loaded into the control cell, the associated pin(s) are high-impedance or  
selected as output.  
The boundary-scan register is a required set of serial-shiftable register cells, configured in  
master/slave stages and connected between each of the PI7C8154’s pins and on-chip system  
logic. The VDD, GND, and JTAG pins are NOT in the boundary-scan chain.  
The boundary-scan register cells are dedicated logic and do not have any system function.  
Data may be loaded into the boundary-scan register master cells from the device input pins  
and output pin-drivers in parallel by the mandatory SAMPLE and EXTEST instructions.  
Parallel loading takes place on the rising edge of TCK.  
Data may be scanned into the boundary-scan register serially via the TDI serial input pin,  
clocked by the rising edge of TCK. When the required data has been loaded into the master-  
cell stages, it can be driven into the system logic at input pins or onto the output pins on the  
falling edge of TCK state. Data may also be shifted out of the boundary-scan register by  
means of the TDO serial output pin at the falling edge of TCK.  
14.6  
TAP CONTROLLER  
The TAP (Test Access Port) controller is a 4-state synchronous finite state machine that  
controls the sequence of test logic operations. The TAP can be controlled via a bus master.  
The bus master can be either automatic test equipment or a component (i.e., PLD) that  
interfaces to the TAP. The TAP controller changes state only in response to a rising edge of  
TCK. The value of the test mode state (TMS) input signal at a rising edge of TCK controls  
the sequence of state changes. The TAP controller is initialized after power-up by applying a  
low to the TRST_L pin. In addition, the TAP controller can be initialized by applying a high  
signal level on the TMS input for a minimum of five TCK periods.  
For greater detail on the behavior of the TAP controller, test logic in each controller state and  
the state machine and public instructions, refer to the IEEE 1149.1 Standard Test Access  
Port and Boundary-Scan Architecture document (available from the IEEE).
