Reset Value
This register contains configuration bits for controlling the priority level of GLIU requests by the DC. It allows high priority to
be enabled under several conditions (see bits [8:1]). These conditions are ORed with other sources of high-priority, includ-
ing the FIFO watermark mechanisms. Settings written to this register take effect immediately. The features in this register
do not affect the DC’s internal prioritization of video vs. graphics data fetches -- just the priority that is presented on the
GeodeLink request. The low priority at VSYNC mechanism (bits [15:9, 0]) takes precedence over all priority mechanisms
except the high priority when line buffer fill in progress” mechanism bit [1].

Description
Reserved.
Line Buffer Load Watermark Enable. When set, allows line buffer loads from the dis-
play FIFO to begin when the display FIFO has at least as much data as defined by the
watermark in bits [19:16] (LB_LOAD_WM). When this bit is cleared, line buffer loads are
not permitted until the display FIFO is full.
Line Buffer Load Watermark. When enabled via bit 20 (LB_LOAD_WM_EN), this
watermark determines how much data must be in the DFIFO before a line buffer load is
permitted. This level is set in 256-byte increments.
Low Priority End Counter. When bit 0 (LPEN_VSYNC) is set, this field indicates the
number of scan lines after VSYNC that the DC will force its requests to low priority.
Because the line buffers, flicker filter buffers, sync buffer, and data FIFO are all cleared at
VSYNC, this mechanism prevents the DC from spending an inordinate amount of time in
high priority while filling all of these buffers. In most cases this value should be set three
or four lines less than the distance between VSYNC start and V_TOTAL. This value may
need to be lowered if VBI data is enabled.
High Priority Enable when Sync Buffer Invalid. This bit enables the DC to arbitrate in
high priority whenever the synchronizer buffer does not contain valid data.
High Priority Enable when Flicker Buffer invalid and Sync Buffer less than Half
Full. This bit enables the DC to arbitrate in high priority whenever the synchronizer buffer
is less than half full and the flicker filter buffer does not contain valid data.
High Priority Enable when Flicker Buffer invalid and Sync Buffer Being Read. This
bit enables the DC to arbitrate in high priority whenever the synchronizer buffer is being
read and the flicker filter buffer does not contain valid data.
High Priority Enable when Flicker Buffer Invalid. This bit enables the DC to arbitrate
at high priority whenever the flicker filter buffer does not contain valid data.
High Priority Enable when Any One Line Buffer Invalid. This bit enables the DC to
arbitrate at high priority if any of the three line buffers is invalid. (When the scaler filter is
disabled, only one logical line buffer is used, and the state of the others is ignored.)
