Definitions of the terms used in

Table 13

and

Table 14

are as follows. PCI terms are

noted in parenthesis:

• Inbound Write (PMW) - Data from a write cycle initiated on PCI and targeted at the

internal bus. Note that the address is in a separate transaction queue and is not

referenced.

• Inbound Read Request (DRR-PCI mode and SRR-PCI-X mode) - address information

from a read transactions retried or split on the PCI bus. Mastered on the internal

bus to retrieve data for the Inbound Read Completion.

• Inbound Configuration Write Request - (DWR- PCI mode and SWR - PCI-X mode) -

The address and data associated with a configuration write transaction from PCI

and targeted at the ATU PCI configuration address space. Once completed on the

internal bus, creates an Inbound Configuration Write Completion.

• Outbound Read Completion (SRC) - The data read on PCI in the process of being

returned to the internal bus. This data is the completion cycle that results from an

Outbound Read Request.

• Outbound Write (PMW) - The address and data from a write initiated on the internal

bus and eventually completing on the PCI bus.

• Outbound Read Request (SRR) - The address/command of a split read cycle

initiated on the internal bus. The read data is returned in the Outbound Read

Completion cycle.

• Inbound Read Completion (DRC-PCI mode and SRC-PCI-X mode) - The data read

on the internal bus in the process of being returned to the PCI bus. This data is the

completion cycle for an Inbound Read Request.

• Inbound Configuration Write Completion (DWC-PCI mode and SWC-PCI-X mode) -

The status of an inbound write configuration cycle traveling from the internal bus

back towards the PCI bus.

a. Since the Inbound DWR transaction queue is one-deep, the passing rule associated with DWC vs. DWC is

moot (i.e., NA).

b. Since the Inbound SWR transaction queue is one-deep, the passing rule associated with SWC vs. SWC is

moot (i.e., NA).

c. Outbound Non-posted writes include I/O writes and Configuration writes.
