Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller<br />

will be four cache lines. This field is only applicable if<br />

read-ahead has been enabled. The encoding of this field is<br />

shown in the table above.<br />

WXFTx Write Any FIFO Threshold. This field is used by the<br />

PHB to determine a FIFO threshold at which to start<br />

writing data into local memory during any PCI write<br />

transaction. Once the threshold is exceeded and the write<br />

has begun, the PHB will continue to empty its FIFO until<br />

it can no longer create a cache line. This field is only<br />

applicable if write-posting has been enabled. The<br />

encoding of this field is shown in the above table.<br />

The PCI Slave Offset Registers (PSOFFx) contain offset information<br />

associated with the mapping of PCI memory space to PPC memory space.<br />

The field within the PSOFFx registers is defined as follows:<br />

PSOFFx PCI Slave Offset. This register contains a 16-bit offset<br />

that is added to the upper 16 bits of the PCI address to<br />

determine the PPC address used for transfers from PCI to<br />

the PPC bus. This offset allows PPC resources to reside at<br />

addresses that would not normally be visible from PCI.<br />

CONFIG_ADDRESS Register<br />

WXFT Write FIFO Threshold<br />

00 4 Cache lines<br />

01 3 Cache lines<br />

10 2 Cache lines<br />

11 1 Cache lines<br />

The description of the CONFIG_ADDRESS register is presented in three<br />

perspectives: from the PCI bus, from the PPC bus in big-endian mode, and<br />

from the PPC bus in little-endian mode. Note that the view from the PCI<br />

bus is purely conceptual, since there is no way to access the<br />

CONFIG_ADDRESS register from the PCI bus.<br />
