1.2 General Description

The LSI Logic LSIFC929 Dual Channel Fibre Channel I/O Processor is a high-performance, Intelligent I/O Processor (IOP) designed to simultaneously support mass storage and IP protocols on a full duplex 2 GBaud FC Link. The sophisticated design and local memory architecture work together to reduce the host CPU and PCI bandwidth required to support FC I/O operations.
From the host CPU perspective, the LSIFC929 manages the FC Link at the exchange level for mass storage (FCP) protocols. The LSIFC929 supports multiple I/O requests per host interrupt in most applications.
From the FC Link perspective, the LSIFC929 is a highly efficient NL_Port supporting point-to-point, and public and private loop topologies, as well as the FC switch/attach topology defined under the ANSI X3T11 FC-PH standard. The LSIFC929 contains sufficient hardware support to perform Class 3 service. The LSIFC929 is uniquely designed to support FC environments where independent, full duplex transmission is required for maximum FC Link efficiency. Special attention has been given to the design to accelerate context switching and Link utilization.
The LSIFC929 includes a 64-bit, 66 MHz PCI interface to the host environment. The host interface is designed to minimize the amount of time spent on the PCI bus for nondata moving activities such as initialization, command and error recovery. In addition, the host interface has inherent flexibility to support the OEM’s implementation trade-offs between CPU, PCI, and I/O bandwidth.
The high level of integration in the LSIFC929 Controller enables low cost FC implementations. Figure 1.1 shows a typical board configuration incorporating the LSIFC929 Controller.

1.2.2 Simple Autospeed Negotiation Algorithm

Backward compatibility with 1 Gbit/s FC devices is maintained through the use of the “Simple Autospeed Negotiation Algorithm.” After a power-on, loss of signal, or loss of word synchronization for longer than the R_T_TOV time-out, the LSIFC929 will perform this operation to determine whether a point-to-point device or all of the devices on a loop are either 1 Gbit/s or 2 Gbits/s devices.

1.2.3 Failover

The LSIFC929 supports two PCI functions and FC ports, which improves performance and provides a redundant path in high-availability systems that require failover capabilities. In case of a Link Failure, the LSIFC929 architecture allows the OS driver to support automatic failover, without the need for IOC intervention.

1.3 Hardware Overview

In today’s fast growing server, RAID, and workstation marketplaces, higher levels of performance, scalability and reliability are required to stay competitive in the SAN market.
The LSIFC929 provides the performance and flexibility to meet tomorrow’s FC connectivity requirements.
The LSIFC929 and the LSI Logic software drivers provide superior performance and lower host CPU overhead than other competitive solutions. Because of its high level of integration and streamlined architecture, the LSIFC929 provides the highest level of performance in a more cost effective FC solution.
Figure 1.2 shows the functional block diagram for the LSIFC929. The
architecture maximizes performance and flexibility by deploying fixed gates in critical performance areas and utilizing multiple ARM RISC processors (two for context management and an additional one for the I/O Processor). Each of the major blocks is briefly described below.

1.3.1 PCI Interface

The LSIFC929 uses a 64-bit (33 MHz or 64 MHz) PCI interface or a 32-bit (33 MHz or 64 MHz) PCI interface. In addition, support is provided for Dual Address Cycle (DAC), PCI power management, Subsystem Vendor ID and Vendor Product Data (VPD). Extended access cycles (MRL, MRM, MWI) are also supported.

1.3.2 32-Bit Memory Controller

The memory controller provides access to Flash ROM and 32-bit Synchronous SRAM. It supports both interleaved and noninterleaved configurations up to a maximum of 4 Mbytes of synchronous SRAM. A

Page 22
general purpose memory expansion bus supports up to 1 Mbyte of Flash ROM.

1.3.3 I/O Processor

The LSIFC929 uses a 32-bit ARM RISC processor to control all system interface and message transport functionality. This frees the host CPU for other processing activity and improves overall I/O performance. The RISC processor and associated firmware have the ability to manage an I/O from start to finish without host intervention. The RISC processor also manages the message passing interface.

1.3.4 System Interface

The system interface efficiently passes messages between the LSIFC929 and other I/O agents. It consists of four hardware FIFOs for the message queuing lists: Request Free, Request Post, Reply Free, and Reply Post. Control logic for the FIFOs is provided within the LSIFC929 system interface with messages stored in external memory.

1.3.5 Integrated 2 Gbaud Transceivers

The LSIFC929 implements LSI Logic’s GigaBlaze®2 Gbaud integrated transceivers. GigaBlaze is backward compatible with 1Gbaud systems, using a firmware-implemented “Simple Autospeed Negotiation Algorithm” for easy updates. The integrated 2 Gbaud transceivers provide a FC compliant physical interface for cost conscious and real estate limited applications.

1.3.6 Link Controllers

The integrated link controller is FC-AL-2 (Rev. 7.0) compatible and performs all link operations. The controller monitors the Link State and strictly adheres to the Loop Port State Machine ensuring maximum system interoperability. The link control interfaces to the integrated transceiver.

1.3.7 Transmitters

The transmitter builds sequences based on context information and transmits resulting frames to the FC link using the Link Controller. Each transmitter includes two 2 Kbyte buffers to support frame payloads.

1.3.8 Receivers

The receivers accept frame data from the Link Controller and DMAs the encapsulated information to local or system memory. Each receiver contains three 2 Kbyte buffers which support a BB-Credit of up to three or an Alternate Login BB-Credit of 1 on each channel.

1.3.9 Context Managers

The LSIFC929 uses an ARM RISC processor in each channel to support I/O context swap to external memory and FCP management for both Initiator and Target applications. Context operations include support for transmit and resource queue management as well as scatter/gather list management.

1.4 Initiator Operations

The LSIFC929 autonomously handles FCP exchanges upon request from the host. The LSIFC929 generates appropriate sequences and frames necessary to complete the request and provides feedback to the host on the status of the request.

1.5 Target Operations

The LSIFC929 provides for general purpose target functions such as those required for front-end RAID applications.

1.6 Diagnostics

The LSIFC929 provides the capabilities to do a simplified “Link Check” Bit Error Rate (BER) test on the link for diagnostic purposes. In a special test mode the controller can transmit and verify a programmed data pattern for link evaluation.

2.1 Introduction

FC is a high-performance, hybrid interface. It is both a channel and a network interface that contains network features to provide the required connectivity, distance, protocol multiplexing, as well as traditional channel features to retain the required simplicity, repeatable performance, and guaranteed delivery. Popular industry standard networking protocols such as Internet Protocol (IP) and channel protocols such as Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) have been mapped to the FC standard.
The FC structure is defined by five functional layers. These layers, shown in Figure 2.1, define the physical media and transmission rates, encoding scheme, framing protocol and flow control, common services, and the Upper Level Protocol (ULP) interfaces.

The lowest layer, FC-0, is the media interface layer. It defines the physical characteristics of the interface. It includes transceivers, copper-to-optical transducers, connectors, and any other associated circuitry necessary to transmit or receive at 1062 or greater Mbaud/s rates over copper or optical cable.
The FC-1 layer defines the 8b/10b encoding/decoding scheme, the transmission protocol necessary to integrate the data and transmit clock, and the receive clock recovery. Implementation of this layer is usually divided between the hardware implementing the FC-0 layer in a transceiver, and the protocol device which implements the FC-2 layer. Specifically, the FC-0 transceivers can include the clock recovery circuitry while the 8b/10b encoding/decoding is provided in the protocol device.
The FC-2 layer defines the rules for the signaling protocol and describes transfer of the Frames, Sequences, and Exchanges. The meaning of the data being transmitted or received is transparent to the FC-2 layer. However, the context between any given set of frames is maintained at

2.3 Frames

the FC-2 layer through the Sequence and Exchange constructs. The framing protocol creates the constructs necessary to form frames with the data being packetized within each frame’s payload.
The FC-3 layer provides common services that span multiple N_Ports (see Section 2.5, “FC Ports,” page 2-7). Some of these services include Striping, Hunt Groups, and Multicasting. All of these services allow a single port or fabric to communicate to several N_Ports at one time.
The top layer defined in FC is the FC-4 layer. The FC-4 layer provides a seamless integration of existing standards. It specifies the mapping of Upper Layer Protocols (ULPs) to the layers below. Some of these ULPs include SCSI and IP. Each of these ULPs is defined in its own ANSI document.
There are two types of frames used in FC: Link Control frames and Data frames. Link Control frames contain no payload and are flow control responses to Data frames. An example of a Link Control frame is the ACK frame.

In FC, an Ordered Set is a group of four 10-bit characters that provide low level Link functions, such as frame demarcation and signaling between two ends of a Link. All frames start with a Start-of-Frame (SOF) and end with an End-of-Frame (EOF) Ordered Set. Each frame contains at least a 24-byte header defining such things as Destination and Source ID, Class of Service and type of frame (e.g., FCP or FC-LE). The biggest field within a frame can be the payload field. If the frame is a Link Control frame, then there is no payload. If it is a Data frame, then the frame will contain a Payload field of up to 2112 bytes. Finally, the frame includes a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) field used for detection of transmission errors, followed by the EOF Ordered Set.

2.4 Exchanges

Figure 2.4 outlines the FC hierarchical Data structures. At the most
elemental level, four 8b/10b encoded characters make up a FC Word. A FC Frame is a collection of FC words. A FC Sequence is made up of one or more frames, and a FC Exchange is made up of one or more sequences.

The following discussion illustrates an Exchange by considering a typical parallel SCSI I/O. In parallel SCSI, there are several phases which make up the I/O. These phases include Command, Data, Message, and Status phases.
Using the FCP for the SCSI ULP, these phases can be mapped into the other lower FC layers. Figure 2.5 shows the components that make up the FCP exchange.

Figure 2.6 shows how the Exchange flows between the Initiator and
Target. The Initiator starts the FCP exchange by sending a Command Sequence containing one frame to the Target. The Frame’s payload contains the Command Descriptor Block (CDB). The Target will then respond with a Data Delivery Request Sequence containing one Frame. The payload of this Frame contains a XFER_RDY response. Once the Initiator receives the Target’s response, it will begin sending the Data Sequence(s), which may contain one or more Frames. This is analogous to parallel SCSI’s DATA_OUT phase. When the Target has received the last Frame of the Data Sequence(s), it will send a Response Sequence containing one Frame to the Initiator, thus concluding the FCP Exchange.

FC devices are called nodes. Each node has at least one port to provide access to other ports in other nodes. The “port” is the hardware entity within a node that performs data communications over the FC Link.
A variety of types of ports are defined within the FC standard, based on the location of the port and the topology associated with it. The most commonly used ports are N_Ports, NL_Ports, F_Ports, and FL_Ports. These types of ports appear in Figure 2.7, Figure 2.8, and Figure 2.9.

2.6 FC Topologies

Topologies are defined, based on the capability and the presence or absence of Fabric between the N_Ports:
Point-to-Point topology
Fabric topology
Arbitrated Loop topology
FC-PH protocols are topology independent. Attributes of a Fabric may restrict operation to certain communication models.

2.6.1 Point-to-Point Topology

The topology shown in Figure 2.7, in which communication between N_Ports occurs without the use of Fabric, is defined as point-to-point.
Figure 2.7 Point-to-Point Topology

2.6.2 Fabric Topology

Figure 2.8 illustrates multiple N_Ports interconnected by a Fabric. This
topology uses the Destination_Identifier (D_ID) embedded in the Frame Header to route the Frame through a Fabric to the desired Destination N_Port.

2.6.3 Arbitrated Loop Topology

The Arbitrated Loop topology permits 2 to 127 L_Ports to communicate without the use of a Fabric, as in Fabric topology. The arbitrated loop supports a maximum of one point-to-point circuit at a time. When two L_Ports are communicating, the arbitrated loop topology supports simultaneous, symmetrical bidirectional flow.
Figure 2.9 illustrates two independent arbitrated loop configurations,
each with multiple L_Ports attached. Each line in the figure between L_Ports represents a single fibre. The lower configuration shows an Arbitrated Loop composed of three NL_Ports and one FL_Port (a Public Loop).

There are several classes of service in FC. The different classes are distinguished from each other in three ways: by the level of guarantee for data being delivered, the order in which data is delivered, and how data flow control is maintained.
Class 1 is a dedicated connection between two N_Ports. The data delivered is guaranteed with a required acknowledgement frame (ACK), which a Class 1 device uses for flow control. All frames are received in order.
Class 2 is a connectionless class. The data delivered is guaranteed with an ACK frame. The frames can be received out of order. Class 2 uses both ACK frames and the R_RDY Ordered Set for flow control.
Class 3 is also a connectionless class (the data being delivered is not guaranteed). The frames can be received out of order. Class 3 uses only the R_RDY Ordered Set for flow control.

Intermix is an enhancement of Class 1 service. A dedicated Class 1 connection may waste fabric bandwidth while frames are not being transmitted or received between two N_Ports. In order to recover some of this bandwidth, Intermix allows Class 2 and Class 3 frames to be transmitted/received between Class 1 frames. N_Ports advertising Intermix capability must be capable of receiving Class 2 and Class 3 frames from other N_Ports while maintaining the original Class 1 Link.

Chapter 3 LSIFC929 Overview
This chapter provides a general description of the LSIFC929 Fibre Channel PCI Protocol Controller firmware. The chapter contains the following sections:
Section 3.1, “Introduction”
Section 3.2, “Message Interface”
Section 3.3, “SCSI Message Class”
Section 3.4, “LAN Message Class”
Section 3.5, “Target Message Class”
Section 3.6, “Support Components”

3.1 Introduction

The LSI Logic LSIFC929 is used to connect a host to a high speed FC Link. The FCP ANSI standard, FC Private Loop Direct Attach, and Fabric Loop Attach profiles are supported with the use of a sophisticated firmware implementation. All profiles, specifications, and interoperability maintained by the LSIFC929 are listed in Appendix B, “Reference
Specifications”.
Although optimized for a 64-bit PCI interface to communicate with the system CPU(s) and memory, the LSIFC929 also supports a 32-bit PCI environment. The system interface to the LSIFC929 is designed to minimize the amount of PCI bandwidth required to support I/O requests. A packetized message passing interface is used to reduce the number of single cycle PCI bus cycles. All FC Data traffic on the PCI bus occurs with zero wait state bursts across the PCI bus.
The intelligent LSIFC929 architecture allows the system to specify I/Os at the command level. The LSIFC929 manages I/Os at the Frame,

Sequence and Exchange level. Error detection and I/O retries are also handled by the LSIFC929, allowing the system to offload part of the exception handling work from the system driver.

3.1.1 Data Flows

The LSIFC929 uses a 64-bit (33 MHz or 66 MHz) PCI interface to pass control and data information between the system and the protocol controller. This interface is managed by the PCI Interface block, as shown in Figure 3.1. It is backward compatible with 32-bit/33 or 66 MHz buses.

For incoming serial data, the physical Link transfers the data to Link Control using the GigaBlaze Integrated Transceiver. The Link Controller analyzes the received frame and if appropriate, it passes the frame to the

Page 37
Receiver. The Receiver strips off the frame header and places it in a separate header buffer while the data in the frame payload is placed in a data buffer. The Frame Receiver uses the Receive Context Manager to manage the received frame’s order and priority. The data contained in the Receiver buffers is associated with a specific scatter/gather entry and passed on to the PCI Interface and it requests the PCI bus and bursts the data into system memory.
The I/O Processor, with its firmware, provides the translation from FC specific protocols to the high level Block Storage, SCSI and LAN message interface. This translation allows the LSIFC929 to be integrated into the system as if it were a native Parallel SCSI or LAN device, hiding all FC unique characteristics. Internal communication between the I/O Processor and the Context manager occurs over an internal bus, which is also connected to an External Memory Controller. The I/O Processor uses the External Memory Controller to access local memory. This memory contains the firmware, as well as the dynamic data structures used by the firmware.

3.2 Message Interface

The LSIFC929 system interface is a high-performance, packetized, mailbox architecture that leverages the intelligence in the LSIFC929 to minimize traffic on the PCI bus.

3.2.1 Messages

There are two basic constructs in the Message Interface. The first construct, the Message, is used to communicate between the system and the LSIFC929. Messages are moved between the system(s) and the LSIFC929 using the second construct, a Transport mechanism.
The LSIFC929 uses two types of messages to communicate with the system. Request messages are created by the system to “request” an action by the LSIFC929. Reply messages are used by the LSIFC929 to send status information back to the system. Request message data structures are up to 128 bytes in length. The message includes a message header and a payload. The header includes information to uniquely identify the message. The payload is specific to the Request itself, and is unique for SCSI, LAN, and Target messages. For more

information regarding the details of the message format, refer to the LSI Logic Fusion-MPT specification.

3.2.2 Message Flow

Before Requests can be posted to the LSIFC929, the system must allocate and initialize a pool of message frames, and provide a mechanism to assign individual message frames, on a per-request basis. The host must also provide one message frame per target LUN, and prime the Reply Free FIFOs for each function with the physical address of these message frames. Once allocation has been completed, requests will flow from the host to the LSIFC929, as represented below and in
Figure 3.2.
1. The host driver receives an I/O request from the operating system.
2. The host driver allocates a system message frame and builds an I/O
request message within the SMF. The allocation method is the responsibility of the host driver.
3. The host driver creates the Message Frame Descriptor (MFD), and
writes the MFD to the Request Post FIFO.
4. The IOC reads the MFD from the Request Post FIFO and DMA’s the
request to a local message frame.
5. The IOC sends the appropriate Fibre Channel request, and
subsequently receives the reply from the target. – If the I/O status was successful, the IOC writes the
MessageContext value, plus turbo reply bits, to the Reply Post FIFO, which automatically generates a system interrupt.
If the I/O status was not successful, the IOC pops a reply
message frame from the Reply Free FIFO, and generates a reply message in the reply message frame. The IOC then writes the system physical address of the reply message frame to the Reply Post FIFO, which generates a system interrupt.
6. The host driver receives an interrupt and reads the Reply Register.
If there are no posted messages, the system reads the value 0xFFFFFFFF.
7. The host driver responds to the Operating System appropriately.
8. If the I/O status was not successful, the host driver returns it to the
Reply Free FIFO.

3.3 SCSI Message Class

The SCSI message interface provides the most direct interface for block-oriented storage media. This includes disk drives and tape devices.
The SCSI I/O path translates a SCSI CDB into an FCP exchange. All FC device and target discovery operations are managed completely within the LSIFC929. FC target devices are assigned a logical (bus, target ID) identifier, and are accessed by the system as if they were parallel SCSI devices. The system is responsible for scanning the target devices, and identifying LUNs on the target devices.

protocol-specific errors and exceptions and retrying bus sequences within the scope of an I/O operation. The system is also responsible for maintaining a timer for SCSI I/O operations if this is required by the host system. The host driver may use the provided SCSI Task Management functions to terminate one or more I/O operations when a timeout occurs. For more information regarding the SCSI Message Class, refer to the LSI Logic Fusion-MPT specification.

3.4 LAN Message Class

The LSIFC929 provides a LAN message interface that supports the system TCP or UDP network driver stack, providing MAC level communication between FC ports.
The typical network driver stack in the system consists of a Socket Driver with a Transport Driver Interface, supported by TCP or UDP and IP drivers, and a Hardware Abstraction layer interface to the LSIFC929. The TCP driver provides data buffer segmentation. The IP driver provides MTU segmentation, adds a header and checksum to the TCP data, and maps each Fibre Channel MAC port address to an IEEE standard address. ACKs are required at the TCP driver to ensure all segments of the data block are transmitted/received.
The LAN message interface may also be used by proprietary protocol stacks in the host, as shown in Figure 3.3. In this environment, the LSIFC929 transmits and receives data between FC nodes, without regard to data content. For more information regarding the LAN Message Class, refer to the LSI Logic Fusion-MPT specification.

3.5 Target Message Class

The Target interface allows the LSIFC929 to be used as the system interface for FC bridge controllers. The LSIFC929 provides an FCP exchange level message interface that routes commands to the system. The system identifies the appropriate data, and passes a Scatter Gather List (SGL) to the LSIFC929 describing the data to transfer. A single Target message directs the LSIFC929 to send a Xfer_Rdy, as needed, and to transfer data and FCP response. Target specific Process Login/Logout is managed by the system. For more information regarding the Target Message Class, refer to the LSI Logic Fusion-MPT specification.

3.6 Support Components

The memory controller block within the LSIFC929 provides access to external local memory resources required to manage FCP.
The following sections provide guidance in choosing the support components necessary for a fully functional implementation using the LSIFC929. A LSIFC929 typical implementation diagram is shown below in Figure 3.4 for reference.

3.6.1 SSRAM Memory

The primary function of this memory is to store data structures used by the LSIFC929 to manage exchanges and transmit and receive queues. The SSRAM memory also stores part of the run time image of the LSIFC929 firmware, such as initialization and error recovery code. The mainline code is stored within the internal LRAM for performance reasons.

Page 43
The LSIFC929 firmware also supports optional byte wide parity error detection. This option is configurable, and is specified as a serial EEPROM parameter.
The amount of SSRAM (1 Mbyte) determines the maximum number of outstanding Request Messages (1024). This roughly equates to the maximum number of outstanding I/O requests pending in the LSIFC929.

3.6.2 Flash ROM

The memory controller in the LSIFC929 also manages an optional Flash ROM. If present, the Flash ROM is used to store the firmware for the LSIFC929 I/O Processor, and if desired, the INT 0x13 boot software.
If the Flash ROM is not used, then the host platform is responsible for downloading the I/O Processor firmware to the LSIFC929 through the PCI interface. The LSIFC929 supports a diagnostic interface, enabled through a sequence of commands issued to the PCI configuration space. Firmware may be directly written to the LSIFC929 internal memory and external SSRAM through the diagnostic interface. Details of this implementation are available in the LSI Logic Fusion-MPT specification. Flash ROM is optional for the LSIFC929, but it is required for firmware storage if INT 0x13 boot software is used. Flash ROM also simplifies OS driver requirements and implementations.
The Flash ROM is accessed using the upper eight bits of the Memory Interface. If a Flash ROM is to be used, then it should have a capacity of 1 Mbyte with a maximum access time of 150 ns. Please see the LSI Logic Fusion-MPT specification for more information regarding the programming of the Flash ROM.

3.6.3 Serial EEPROM

The serial EEPROM stores nonvolatile data for the LSIFC929, such as the World Wide Name, VPD, and other vendor specific information. The SEEPROM data is programmed by the firmware, so the firmware must be downloaded and running before the SEEPROM is programmed. The minimum required size of the EEPROM is 2 Kbytes; however, an 8 Kbyte SEEPROM is required for full functionality.

The physical longword Address and Data are multiplexed on the same PCI pins. During the first clock of a transaction, AD[63:0] contains a physical byte address. During subsequent clocks, AD[63:0] contains data. A bus transaction consists of an address phase followed by one or more data phases. PCI supports both read and write bursts. AD[7:0] define the least significant byte, and AD[63:56] define the most significant byte.

Bus Command and Byte Enables are multiplexed on the same PCI pins. During the address phase of a transaction, C_BE[3:0]/ define the bus command. During the data phase, C_BE[7:0]/ are used as byte enables. The byte enables determine which byte lanes carry meaningful data. C_BE[0]/ applies to the least significant byte, and C_BE[7]/ to the most significant byte. Byte enables are active LOW.
Initialization Device Select is used as a chip select in place of the upper 24 address lines during configuration read and write transactions.

Cycle Frame is driven by the current master to
indicate the beginning and duration of an access. FRAME/ is asserted to indicate a bus transaction is beginning. While FRAME/ is deasserted, the transaction is in the final data phase or the bus is idle.
Initiator Ready indicates the initiating agent’s (bus master’s) ability to complete the current data phase of the transaction. IRDY/ is used with TRDY/. A data phase is completed on any clock when both IRDY/ and TRDY/ are sampled asserted. During a write, IRDY/ indicates that valid data is present on AD[63:0]. During a read, it indicates that the master is prepared to accept data. Wait cycles are inserted until both IRDY/ and TRDY/ are asserted together.

Parity Error may be pulsed active by an agent
that detects a parity error. PERR/ can be used by any agent to signal data corruption. However, on detection of a PERR/ pulse, the central resource may generate a nonmaskable interrupt to the host CPU, which often implies the system will be unable to continue operation once error processing is complete.
System Error is an open drain output used to report address parity errors and data parity errors on the Special Cycle command.
Parity is the even parity bit that protects the AD[31:0] and C_BE[3:0]/ lines. During the address phase, both the address and command bits are covered. During the data phase, both data and byte enables are covered.
Parity64 is the even parity bit that protects the AD[63:32] and C_BE[7:4]/ lines. During the address phase, both the address and command bits are covered. During the data phase, both data and byte enables are covered.

Chapter 5 Registers
This chapter provides a description of the registers in the LSIFC929 Fibre Channel PCI Protocol Controller chip. The chapter contains the following sections:
Section 5.1, “PCI Addressing”
Section 5.2, “PCI Bus Commands Supported”
Section 5.3, “PCI Cache Mode”
Section 5.4, “Unsupported PCI Commands”
Section 5.5, “Programming Model”
Section 5.6, “PCI/Multifunction PCI Configuration Registers”
Section 5.7, “Host Interface Registers”
Section 5.8, “Shared Memory”

5.1 PCI Addressing

There are three types of PCI-defined address space:
Configuration space
Memory space
I/O space
Configuration space is a contiguous 256 x 8-bit set of addresses dedicated to each “slot” or “stub” on the bus. Decoding C_BE[7:0]/ determines if a PCI cycle is intended to access configuration register space. The IDSEL bus signal is a “chip select” that allows access to the configuration register space only. A configuration read/write cycle without IDSEL will be ignored. The eight lower order addresses are used to select a specific 8-bit register. AD[10:8] are decoded as well, but they
LSIFC929 Dual Channel Fibre Channel I/O Processor 5-1

Page 64
must be “000” (for PCI Function 0) or “001” (for PCI Function 1), or the LSIFC929 will not respond. According to the PCI specification, AD[10:8] are used for multifunction devices. The host processor uses the PCI configuration space to initialize the LSIFC929.
At initialization time, each PCI device is assigned a base address for memory accesses and I/O accesses. On every access, the LSIFC929 compares its assigned base addresses with the value on the Address/Data bus during the PCI address phase. A decode of C_BE[7:0]/ determines which registers and what type of access is to be performed.

5.2 PCI Bus Commands Supported

Bus commands indicate to the target the type of transaction the master is requesting. Bus commands are encoded on the C_BE[3:0]/ lines during the address phase. PCI bus command encoding and types appear in Table 5.1.
The Memory Read, Memory Read Multiple, and Memory Read Line commands are used to read data from an agent mapped in memory address space. All 64 address bits are decoded (DAC).
The Memory Write, and Memory Write and Invalidate commands are used to write data to an agent when mapped in memory address space. All 64 address bits are decoded (DAC).

5.3 PCI Cache Mode

The LSIFC929 supports the PCI specification for an 8-bit Cache Line
Size register located in PCI configuration space. The Cache Line Size
register provides the ability to sense and react to nonaligned addresses corresponding to cache line boundaries. Memory Write and Invalidate is enabled using bit 4 of the Command Register in PCI configuration space. Cache Read commands cannot be disabled. Slaves, however, can alias the Memory Read Line and Memory Read Multiple commands to the Memory Read command.

Page 66
5.3.1 Support for PCI Cache Line Size Register
The LSIFC929 supports the PCI specification for an 8-bit Cache Line
Size register in PCI configuration space; it can sense and react to
nonaligned addresses corresponding to cache line boundaries.

5.3.2 Selection of Cache Line Size

The cache logic selects a cache line size based on the value specified in the Cache Line Size register.
Note: If a value of 1 is specified in the PCI Cache Line size
register, caching is disabled. Otherwise, the LSIFC929 uses whatever legal value is specified (2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128) for all aligned burst data transfers.

5.3.3 Memory Write and Invalidate Command

The Memory Write and Invalidate command is identical to the Memory Write command, except that it additionally guarantees a minimum transfer of one complete cache line; i.e., the master intends to write all bytes within the addressed cache line in a single PCI transaction, unless interrupted by the target. This command requires implementation of the PCI Cache Line Size register at address 0x00C in the PCI configuration space.
5.3.3.1 Alignment
The LSIFC929 uses the calculated line size value to monitor the current address for alignment to the cache line size. When it is not aligned, the chip attempts to align to the cache boundary by using a noncache command.
For nonaligned initial addresses, the chip executes a burst to bring the address counter to an aligned value. Once a cache line boundary is reached, the chip uses the cache line size as the burst size from then on, except in the case of Multiple Cache Line Transfers. The alignment process is finished at this point. Memory Write and Invalidate commands are issued when the following conditions are met:
5-4 Registers

Page 67
1. The PCI configuration Command register, bit 4 must be set.
2. The Cache Line Size register must contain a legal burst size (2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128) value.
3. The chip must have enough bytes in the DMA FIFO to complete at least one full cache line burst.
4. The chip must be aligned to a cache line boundary.
When these conditions have been met, the LSIFC929 issues a Write and Invalidate command instead of a Memory Write command during all PCI write cycles.
5.3.3.2 Multiple Cache Line Transfers
The Memory Write and Invalidate command can write multiple cache lines of data in a single bus ownership. The chip issues a burst transfer as soon as it reaches a cache line boundary. The size of the transfer will not automatically be the cache line size, but rather a multiple of the cache line size as allowed for in the Revision 2.1 of the PCI specification. The logic selects the largest multiple of the cache line size based on the amount of data to transfer.
When the DMA buffer contains less data than the value specified in the
Cache Line Size register, the LSIFC929 throttles back to a Memory Write
command on the next cache line boundary.
5.3.3.3 Latency
In accordance with the PCI specification, the chip's latency timer is ignored when issuing a Write and Invalidate command. When a latency time-out has occurred and GNT/ is deasserted, the LSIFC929 continues to transfer up until a cache line boundary. At that point, the chip relinquishes the bus, and finishes the transfer at a later time using another bus ownership. In accordance with the PCI Local Bus Specification, the latency timer is completely ignored as long as GNT/ is asserted to the LSIFC929.
5.3.3.4 PCI Target Retry
During a Write and Invalidate transfer, if the target device issues a retry (STOP with no TRDY, indicating that no data was transferred), the LSIFC929 relinquishes the bus and immediately tries to finish the transfer
PCI Cache Mode 5-5

Page 68
on another bus ownership. The chip issues another Write and Invalidate command on the next ownership, in accordance with the PCI specification.
5.3.3.5 PCI Target Disconnect
During a Write and Invalidate transfer, if the target device issues a disconnect the LSIFC929 relinquishes the bus and immediately tries to finish the transfer on another bus ownership. The chip will not issue another Write and Invalidate command on the next ownership unless the address is aligned.

5.3.4 Read Commands

Memory Read Line and Memory Read Multiple commands are issued with burst transfers where the memory system and the requesting master may gain some performance advantage by prefetching read data. Cache command usage is described below.
5.3.4.1 Memory Read Line
The Memory Read Line command is issued on any burst read of two or more Dwords in which a cache line boundary is not crossed. The starting address of the burst need not be aligned to a cache line boundary. This command allows a capable bridge to prefetch and burst up to an entire cache line of data, as opposed to disconnecting after every data phase.
5.3.4.2 Memory Read Multiple
The Memory Read Multiple command is issued on any burst read that crosses a cache line boundary. The starting address of the burst need not be aligned to a cache line boundary. This command allows a capable bridge to prefetch multiple cache lines of data, maximizing read burst potential.
5.3.4.3 Memory Read
For single Dword (nonburst) transfers, the Memory Read command is used.

5.4 Unsupported PCI Commands

The LSIFC929 does not respond to reserved commands, special cycle, or interrupt acknowledge commands as a slave. It will never generate these commands as a master.

5.5 Programming Model

The LSI Logic Fusion-MPT specification includes all necessary hardware registers, shared memory and associated memory addresses from the host (using system addresses) viewpoint. The host programming model consists of PCI/Multifunction PCI Configuration Registers, Host Interface
Registers, and a Shared Memory region.
5.6 PCI/Multifunction PCI Configuration Registers
The Configuration registers are accessible only by the system BIOS during PCI configuration cycles, and are not available to the user at any time. No other cycles can access these registers.
Note: The configuration register descriptions provide general
information only, to indicate which PCI configuration addresses are supported in the LSIFC929. Table 5.2 shows the PCI configuration registers implemented by the LSIFC929. Addresses 0x048 through 0x07F are not defined.
All PCI-compliant devices, such as the LSIFC929, must support the
Device ID/Vendor ID, Command, and Status Registers. Support of other
PCI-compliant registers is optional. In the LSIFC929, registers that are not supported are not writable and return all zeroes when read. Only those registers and bits that are currently supported by the LSIFC929 are described in this chapter. For more detailed information on PCI registers, please see the PCI Local Bus Specification.
PCI configuration space provides identification, configuration, initialization, and error management functions for PCI devices. The LSIFC929 provides configuration registers as defined in Table 5.2.

5.6.1 Multifunction PCI

The LSIFC929 supports multifunction capability on the PCI bus. Both Function[0] and Function[1] have identical looking configuration space memory maps, and most of the data reported in these registers by the LSIFC929 is also the same. The only exceptions are the Device ID,Class Code, Subsystem ID, and Subsystem Vendor ID. Each of these values can be set separately for each function within the serial EEPROM, which is downloaded into these registers before any configuration cycles are completed. While the Class Code, Subsystem ID, and the Subsystem Vendor ID can all be set to any value, the Device ID is more restrictive. The upper 15 bits are hardcoded to a value of 0x0622, but the least significant bit (bit 16) can be programmed to either a 0 or a 1 to provide two possible Device ID values of 0x0622 or 0x0623.

Resources assigned to each function by the PCI BIOS are maintained separately. However, in most cases they will still access the same memory locations in the LSIFC929. The shared memory locations within Mem0 and all of the memory accessed through Mem1 and the expansion ROM are all aliased to the same spaces between the two functions. Within the host registers located in I/O space and Mem0, some of the registers are also aliased and some are unique to the different functions.
The multifunction feature of the LSIFC929 can be disabled by setting bit 0 in the Hardware Configuration entry in the serial EEPROM. This clears the multifunction bit in the PCI configuration space, and the LSIFC929 will only respond to Function[0].

The most significant half of the Status/Command Register is used to record status information for PCI bus-related events.
Reads to the upper half of this register (status) behave normally. Writes are slightly different in that bits can be cleared, but not set. A bit is reset whenever the register is written, and the data in the corresponding bit location is a one. For instance, to clear bit 31 and not affect any other bits, write the value 0x8000 to the register.
The least significant half of the Status/Command Register provides coarse control over a device’s ability to generate and respond to PCI cycles. When a zero is written to this register, the LSIFC929 is logically disconnected from the PCI bus for all accesses except configuration accesses.

5.7 Host Interface Registers

The first 128 bytes of PCI Memory 0 address space contain the Host Interface Register set as specified in Table 5.3. Both 32- and 64-bit accesses are allowed to the Host Register set. The LSIFC929 design supports only nonburst accesses to the Host Interface Register Set and will Disconnect-with-data (TRDY/ and STOP/ both asserted) after the first transfer of any burst attempt.
The LSIFC929 also specifies an I/O space requirement of 128 bytes of I/O mapped space which the System is required to assign during PCI configuration. The 128 bytes of I/O space are mapped onto the first 128 bytes of Memory 0 space; they provide an alternate access path to the Host Interface register set.

The following Host Registers/Bits are unique and operate independently with respect to Function[0] and Function[1]:
1. System Doorbell Register
2. Diagnostic Register (ResetHistory bit)
3. Host Interrupt Status Register
4. Host Interrupt Mask Register
5. Reply FIFO
6. Host Index Register
The Request FIFOs are internally combined between the two functions due to the fact that both FIFOs are managed by the single IOP microprocessor internal to the LSIFC929. A small piece of hardware logic places a stamp onto Message Frame Address (MFA)bit 2 indicating from which function the request originated. Unlike the Request FIFOs, the Reply FIFOs are managed independently by the drivers associated with each function. Therefore, separate hardware FIFOs are needed to support each.

The System Doorbell Register is a simple message passing mechanism to allow the System to pass single word messages to the embedded IOP processor and vice versa. When a PCI master writes to the HostRegs: Doorbell register, a maskable interrupt is generated to the IOP processor. The value written by the System master is available for the

IOP processor to read in the SysIfRegs: Doorbell register. The interrupt status will be cleared when the IOP writes any value to the SysIfRegs:
DoorbellClear register. Conversely, when the IOP processor writes to the SysIfRegs: Doorbell register, a maskable interrupt is generated to the
PCI system using the INTA/ signal pin. The value written by the IOP is available to the System for reading from the HostRegs: Doorbell register. The interrupt status/pin is cleared when the System writes any value to the HostRegs: IntStatus register.

The Write Sequence Register provides a protection mechanism against inadvertent writes to the Host Diagnostic Register. A sequence of five data specific writes must be written into the Write Sequence KEY field in order to enable writes to the Host Diagnostic Register. Any data value written incorrectly causes the Write Sequence Register to restart by looking for the first sequence value. The required data sequence is:
0x4, 0xB, 0x2, 0x7, 0xD
After the last value (0xD) is written, the Host Diagnostic Register may be written to until another write occurs to the Write Sequence Register (of any value). A bit is provided in the Host Diagnostic Register that indicates if write access has been enabled for the Host Diagnostic
Register (e.g., to verify that the Write Sequence data sequence was
correct or to verify that writes to the Host Diagnostic Register have been disabled).

5.8 Shared Memory

A region of Shared Memory (LSIFC929 local memory mapped to System Addresses) is provided to allow the Host to write Request Message Frames into. This is the default method (PUSH model) for Request Message Frame transport, where the Host itself copies the Request Message Frame into the LSIFC929 local memory. The total size of Shared Memory is configured by the I/O Processor on reset. Supported values are 32 Kbytes, 64 Kbytes, 128 Kbytes (default), 256 Kbytes, and 512 Kbytes. Shared memory is accessible only through Mem0 space starting at address 0x080.
