Bit Range

Table size

System software reads this field to determine the MSI-X Table

size <n>, which is encoded as <n–1>. For example, a returned

value of 2047 indicates a table size of 2048. This field is read-

only. Legal range is 0–2047 (2

11

).

Address offset: 0x068[26:16]

Table Offset

[31:0]

Points to the base of the MSI-X Table. The lower 3 bits of the

table BAR indicator (BIR) are set to zero by software to form a

32-bit qword-aligned offset

(1)

. This field is read-only.

Table BAR

Indicator

[2:0]

Specifies which one of a function’s BARs, located beginning at

0x10 in Configuration Space, is used to map the MSI-X table

into memory space. This field is read-only. Legal range is 0–5.

Array (PBA)

Offset

[31:0]

Used as an offset from the address contained in one of the

function’s Base Address registers to point to the base of the

MSI-X PBA. The lower 3 bits of the PBA BIR are set to zero by

software to form a 32-bit qword-aligned offset. This field is

read-only.
