An outbound request that requires a response—an NWRITE_R or an NREAD
transaction—is assigned a time-out value that is the sum of the VALUE field of the Port
Response Time-Out Control
register ( Table 6–7 on page 6–6 ) and the current value of
a free-running counter. When the counter reaches the time-out value, if the transaction
has not yet received a response, the transaction times out. Refer to
Table 6–7 for
information about the duration of the time-out.
If you turn off the I/O read and write order preservation option in the RapidIO
parameter editor, if a read and a write request arrive simultaneously or one clock
cycle apart on the Avalon-MM interfaces, the order of transaction completion is
undefined. However, if you turn on the I/O read and write order preservation option,
the read requests buffer and the write requests buffer shown in
Figure 4–21 are
combined, to preserve the relative order of read and write requests that appear on the
Avalon-MM interface. In Arria 10 variations, the read and write request buffers are
combined.
Keeping Track of I/O Write Transactions
The following three registers are available to software to keep track of I/O write
transactions:
■ The Input/Output Slave Avalon-MM Write Transactions register described in
Table 6–49 on page 6–23 holds a count of the write transactions that have been
initiated on the write Avalon-MM slave interface.
