PI7C8152A & PI7C8152B
2-PORT PCI-TO-PCI BRIDGE
ADVANCE INFORMATION
The memory-mapped I/O base address and memory-mapped I/O limit address registers
define an address range that PI7C8152x uses to determine when to forward memory
commands. PI7C8152x forwards a memory transaction from the primary to the secondary
interface if the transaction address falls within the memory-mapped I/O address range.
PI7C8152x ignores memory transactions initiated on the secondary interface that fall into
this address range. Any transactions that fall outside this address range are ignored on the
primary interface and are forwarded upstream from the secondary interface (provided that
they do not fall into the prefetchable memory range or are not forwarded downstream by
the VGA mechanism).
The memory-mapped I/O range supports 32-bit addressing only. The PCI-to-PCI Bridge
Architecture Specification does not provide for 64-bit addressing in the memory-mapped
I/O space. The memory-mapped I/O address range has a granularity and alignment of
1MB. The maximum memory-mapped I/O address range is 4GB.
The memory-mapped I/O address range is defined by a 16-bit memory-mapped I/O base
address register at configuration offset 20h and by a 16-bit memory-mapped I/O limit
address register at offset 22h. The top 12 bits of each of these registers correspond to bits
[31:20] of the memory address. The low 4 bits are hardwired to 0. The lowest 20 bits of the
memory-mapped I/O base address are assumed to be 0 0000h, which results in a natural
alignment to a 1MB boundary. The lowest 20 bits of the memory-mapped I/O limit address
are assumed to be FFFFFh, which results in an alignment to the top of a 1MB block.
Note: The initial state of the memory-mapped I/O base address register is 0000 0000h. The
initial state of the memory-mapped I/O limit address register is 000F FFFFh. Note that the
initial states of these registers define a memory-mapped I/O range at the bottom 1MB block
of memory. Write these registers with their appropriate values before setting either the
memory enable bit or the master enable bit in the command register in configuration space.
To turn off the memory-mapped I/O address range, write the memory-mapped I/O base
address register with a value greater than that of the memory-mapped I/O limit address
register.
4.3.2
PREFETCHABLE MEMORY BASE AND LIMIT ADDRESS
REGISTERS
Locations accessed in the prefetchable memory address range must have true memory-like
behavior and must not exhibit side effects when read. This means that extra reads to a
prefetchable memory location must have no side effects. PI7C8152x pre-fetches for all
types of memory read commands in this address space.
The prefetchable memory base address and prefetchable memory limit address registers
define an address range that PI7C8152x uses to determine when to forward memory
commands. PI7C8152x forwards a memory transaction from the primary to the secondary
interface if the transaction address falls within the prefetchable memory address range.
PI7C8152x ignores memory transactions initiated on the secondary interface that fall into
this address range. PI7C8152x does not respond to any transactions that fall outside this
address range on the primary interface and forwards those transactions upstream from the
secondary interface (provided that they do not fall into the memory-mapped I/O range or
are not forwarded by the VGA mechanism).
