Parameter

Description

Enable burst capabilities

for RXM BAR2 ports

On/Off

When you turn on this option, the BAR2 RX Avalon-

MM master is burst capable. If BAR2 is 32 bits and

Burst capable, then BAR3 is not available for other use.

If BAR2 is 64 bits, the BAR3 register holds the upper 32

bits of the address.

Address width of

accessible PCIe memory

space

20–64

Specifies the size of the PCIe memory space. The value

you specify sets the width of the TX slave address,

txs_

address

for 64-bit addresses.

Number of address pages 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64,

128, 256, 512

Specifies the number of consecutive address pages in the

PCI Express address domain. This parameter is only

necessary for 32-bit addresses.

Size of address pages

4 KByte–4GByte Sets the size of the PCI Express system pages. All pages

must be the same size. This parameter is only necessary

for 32-bit addresses.

Base Address Register (BAR) Settings

The type and size of BARs available depend on port type.

Parameter

Value

Description

Type

Disabled
64-bit prefetchable memory
32-bit non-prefetchable memory
32-bit prefetchable memory
I/O address space

If you select 64-bit prefetchable memory, 2

contiguous BARs are combined to form a 64-bit

prefetchable BAR; you must set the higher numbered

BAR to Disabled.
Defining memory as prefetchable allows contiguous

data to be fetched ahead. Prefetching memory is

advantageous when the requestor may require more

data from the same region than was originally

requested. If you specify that a memory is prefetch‐

able, it must have the following 2 attributes:
• Reads do not have side effects

• Write merging is allowed
The 32-bit prefetchable memory and I/O address

space BARs are only available for the Legacy

Endpoint.
