Introduction

The PLB PCI Full Bridge design provides full bridge functionality between the Xilinx 64-bit PLB and a 32-bit Revision 2.2 compliant Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) bus. The bridge is referred to as the PLB PCI Bridge in this document.
The Xilinx PLB is a 64-bit bus subset of the IBM PLB described in the 64-Bit Processor Local Bus Architecture Specification v3.5. Details on the Xilinx PLB and the PLB IPIF are found in the Processor IP Reference Guide. This guide is accessed via EDK help or the Xilinx website at:
http://www.xilinx.com/ise/embedded/proc_ip_ref_ guide.pdf.
The LogiCORE PCI v3.0 core provides an interface with the PCI bus. Details of the LogiCORE PCI 32 v3.0 core operation is found in the
v3.0 Product Specification and the Xilinx The Real-PCI Design Guide v3.0.

Product Specification
PLB PCI Full Bridge (v1.00a)

Features

• Independent PLB and PCI clocks
• 33 MHz, 32-bit PCI bus support
• Utilizes two pairs of FIFOs to exploit the separate master and slave PLB IPIF modules.
• Includes a master IP module for remote PCI initiator transactions, which follows the protocol for interfacing with the master IPIF module utilizing Xilinx LocalLink protocol. The PLB PCI Bridge translates the PCI initiator request to PLB IPIF master transactions.
• Includes a slave IP module for remote PLB master transactions, which follows the protocol for interfacing with the slave IPIF module utilizing Xilinx IPIC protocol. The PLB PCI Bridge translates the PLB master request to PCI initiator transactions. The SRAM-like interface is utilized at the IPIC interface for data transfers.
• The PLB IPIF slave attachment has a timer that limits the time for both read and write dataphase operations to complete. When the timer expires, Sl_MErr signal is asserted. See PLB IPIF Product Specification for details.
• Full bridge functionality
- PLB Master read and write of a remote PCI target (both single and burst)
- PCI Initiator read and write to a remote PLB slave (both single and multiple).
- I/O read and I/O write commands are supported only for PLB master read and writes of PCI I/O space as designated by its associated memory designator parameter. All memory space on the PLB-side is designated as memory space in the PCI sense, therefore, I/O commands cannot be used to access memory on the PLB-side.
- Configuration read and writes are supported (including self-configuration transactions) only when upper word address lines are utilized for IDSEL lines. The Configuration Read and Write commands are automatically executed by writing to the Configuration Data Port Register. Data in the Configuration Address Port Register and the Configuration Bus Number/Subordinate Bus Number Register are used in execution of the configuration transaction per PCI 2.2 specification.
• PCI Memory Read Line (MRL) command is supported in which the v3.0 core is a target. MRL is aliased to a Memory Read command which has a single data phase on the PCI.
• PCI Memory Write Invalidate (MWI) command is supported in which the v3.0 core is a target. The v3.0 core does not support this command when it is an initiator. MWI is aliased to a Memory Write command which has a single data phase on the PCI.
• Supports up to 6 PLB devices, in the sense defined by independent parameters and unique PLB memory space for each device
- Each device has the following parameters: PLB BAR, high (upper) address, memory designator, and translation for mapping PLB address space to PCI address space. Byte addressing integrity is maintained by default in all transfers. Address translation is performed by high-order bit substitution. High-order bit definition can be done with parameters or dynamically via registers.
EARLY ACCESS
• Supports up to 3 PCI devices (or BARs in PCI context) with unique memory PCI memory space. The v3.0 core supports up to 3 PCI BAR.
- Each device has the following parameters: PCI BAR, length, memory designator, and translation for mapping PCI address space to PLB address space. Byte addressing integrity is maintained by

• Completes posted write operations prior to initiating new operations
• Signal set required for integrating a PCI bus arbiter in the FPGA with the PLB PCI bridge is available at the top-level of the PLB PCI bridge module. The signal set includes PCLK, RST_N, FRAME_I, REQ_N_toArb and IRDY_I
• Supports PCI clock generated in FPGA
• Parameterized control of IO-buffer insertion of INTR_A and REQ_N IO-buffers

PLB PCI Full Bridge (v1.00a)

System Reset

When the bridge is reset, both RST_N and PLB_reset must be simultaneously held at reset for at least twenty clock periods of the slowest clock.

Evaluation Version

The PLB PCI Bridge is delivered with a hardware evaluation license. When programmed into a Xilinx device, the core will function in hardware for about 8 hours at the typical frequency of operation. To use the PLB PCI Bridge without this timeout limitation, a full license must be purchased.

Functional Description

The PLB PCI Bridge design is shown in Figure 1 and described in the following sections. As shown, PLB IPIF PCI Bridge is comprised of three main modules:
• The PLB IPIF (Processor Local Bus Intellectual Property InterFace). It interfaces to the PLB bus.
• The IPIF v3.0 Bridge. It interfaces between the PLB IPIF and the v3.0 core.
• The LogiCORE PCI32 Interface v3.0 core. It interfaces to the PCI bus.

LogiCore Version 3.0 32-bit PCI Core Requirements

The PLB PCI bridge uses the 32-bit Xilinx LogiCore Version 3 IP core. Before the bridge can perform transactions on the PCI bus, the v3.0 core must be configured via configuration transactions from either the PCI-side or if configuration functionality is included in the bridge configuration, from the PLB-side. Both a design guide and an implementation guide are available for the Xilinx LogiCore v3.0 PCI IP

core. These documents detail the v3.0 core operation, including configuration cycles, and are available from Xilinx.
As required by the LogiCORE v3.0 core, GNT_N must be asserted for two clock cycles to initiate a PCI transaction by the PLB PCI Bridge.

Bus Interface Parameters

Because many features in the IPIF v3.0 Bridge design can be parameterized, the user can realize a PLB PCI Full Bridge uniquely tailored while using only the resources required for the desired functionality. This approach also achieves the best possible performance with the lowest resource usage. shown the features that can be parameterized in the PLB PCI Bridge design.

Address Translation

Address space on the PCI side that is accessible from the PLB side must be translated to a 2N contiguous block on the PLB side. Up to six contiguous blocks are possible. Each block has parameters for base address (C_IPIFBAR_N), high address, address translation vector, and memory designator (memory or I/O).
All address space on the PLB side that is accessible from the PCI side must be translated to a maximum of three 2 v3.0 core supports up to 3 BARs. Each block has parameters for length, which must be a 2 address translation vector. Only PCI memory space is supported.
N
contiguous blocks on the PCI side. Up to three blocks are possible because the LogiCore PCI

range, and
Address translations in both directions are performed as follows:
• High-order address bits are substituted for the address vector before crossing to the other bus domain. The number of high-order bits substituted in the PLB address presented to the bridge is given by the number of bits that are the same between the C_IPIFBAR_N and C_ IPIF_HIGHADDR_N parameters. The number of high-order bits substituted in the PCI address presented to the bridge for a translation from PCI to PLB domains is given by the bus width minus the parameter C_PCIBAR_LEN_N.
• The low-order bits are transferred directly between bus domains. The bits substituted in a translation from PLB to PCI domains can be selected via a parameter (C_INCLUDE_BAROFFSET_REG) as either a parameter (C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_N) or a programmable register for each BAR. The bits that are substituted for in a translation from PCI to PLB domains is defined by a parameter (C_PCIBAR2IPIFBAR_M) for each BAR.
Figure 2 shows two sets of base address register (BAR) parameters and how they are used. The two sets
are independent sets: one set for the up to six PLB-side device (IPIFBAR) address ranges and another set for the up to three PCI-side device (PCIBAR) address ranges.
This document includes three examples of how to use the two sets of base address register (BAR) parameters:
Example 1, shown in Figure 2, outlines the use of the two sets of BAR parameters.
Example 2 outlines the use of the IPIFBAR parameters sets for the specific address translations of PLB addresses within the range of a given IPIFBAR to a remote PCI address space.

Example 1
Because address translations are performed only when the PLB PCI Bridge is configured with FIFOs, the example shown in
Figure 2 is for an PLB PCI Bridge configuration with FIFOs only. In this example, it
is assumed that C_INCLUDE_BAROFFSET_REG=0, therefore, the parameters C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_N define the high-order bits for substitution in translating the address on the PLB bus to the PCI bus.
The PLB parameters are C_IPIFBAR_N, C_IPIF_HIGHADDR_N, and C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_N for N=0

The PCI parameters are C_PCIBAR_LEN_M and C_PCIBAR2IPIFBAR_M for M=0 to 2.
Example 2
Example 2 shows of the settings of the two independent sets of base address register (BAR) parameters for specifics of address translation of PLB addresses within the range of a given IPIFBAR to a remote PCI address space. Note that this setting does not depend on the PCIBARs of the PLB PCI Bridge.

PLB PCI Full Bridge (v1.00a)
As in example 1, it is assumed that the parameter C_INCLUDE_BAROFFSET_REG=0, therefore the C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_N parameters define the address translation.
In this example, where C_IPIFBAR_NUM=4, the following assignments for each range are made:
C_IPIFBAR_0=0x12340000 C_IPIF_HIGHADDR_0=0x1234FFFF C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_0=0x5671XXXX (Bits 16-31 are don’t cares)
C_IPIFBAR_1=0xABCDE000 C_IPIF_HIGHADDR_1=0xABCDFFFF C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_1=0xFEDC0xXX (Bits 19-31 are don’t cares)
C_IPIFBAR_2=0xFE000000 C_IPIF_HIGHADDR_2=0xFFFFFFFF C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_2=0x40xXXXXX (Bits 7-31 are don’t cares)
C_IPIFBAR_3=0x00000000 C_IPIF_HIGHADDR_3=0x0000007F C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_3=8765438X (Bits 25-31 are don’t cares)
Accessing the PLB PCI Bridge IPIFBAR_0 with address 0x12340ABC on the PLB bus yields 0x56710ABC on the PCI bus.
Accessing the PLB PCI Bridge IPIFBAR_1 with address 0xABCDF123 on the PLB bus yields 0xFEDC1123 on the PCI bus.
Accessing the PLB PCI Bridge IPIFBAR_2 with address 0xFFFEDCBA on the PLB bus yields 0x41FEDCBA on the PCI bus.
Accessing the PLB PCI Bridge IPIFBAR_3 with address 0x00000071 on the PLB bus yields Ox876543F1 on the PCI bus.
Example 3
Example 3 outlines address translation of PCI addresses within the range of a given PCIBAR to PLB address space. Note that this translation is independent of the PLB PCI Bridge IPIF BARs.
The parameters C_PCIBAR2IPIFBAR_M parameters define the address translation for all C_PCIBAR_NUM.
In this example, where C_PCIBAR_NUM=2, the following range assignments are made:
BAR 0 is set to 0xABCDE800 by host C_PCIBAR_LEN_0=11
C_PCIBAR2IPIFBAR_0=0x123450XX (Bits 21-31 are don’t cares)
BAR 1 is set to 0x12000000 by host C_PCIBAR_LEN_1=25 C_PCIBAR2IPIFBAR_1=0xFEXXXXXX (Bits 7-31 are don’t cares)

Active high signal to asynchronously assert INTR_A. Inverted signal drives INTR_N user application input of v3.0 core. See v3.0 core documents for details on INTR_N functionality.
200 MHz clock input to IDELAY elements of Virtex-4 buffers. Ignored if not Virtex-4 architecture.
Notes:
1. This signal’s function and timing are defined in the IBM 64-Bit Processor Local Bus Architecture Specification Version 3.5.
The REQ_N_toArb facilitates an interface to an internal (i.e., in the FPGA) pci arbiter. The v3.0 input buffer for GNT_N is removed. This allows an internal connection to GNT_N when using an internal arbiter. When an external arbiter is used, GNT_N_fromArb is not needed.
REQ_N is a 3-stated I/O. The REQ_N_toArb port is available to maintain a v3.0 core-like interface. The REQ_N_toArb port allows the use of the same port list for PCI bus interface and the ucf-file for the v3.0 core is the standard file.
The v3.0 core requires that GNT_N be asserted for two clock cycles to initiate a transaction upon receiving grants.
Bus2PCI_INTR is an active High signal. It allows asynchronous assertion of INTR_A on the PCI bus. The signal is driven by user supplied circuitry (i.e., a PLB GPIO IP core). If it is not connected in the mhs-file, then EDK 8.1 tools will tie the signal Low. The signal is inverted in the PLB PCI Bridge and AND’d with the bridge interrupt signal (active Low) to drive the INTR_N input of the v3.0 core. This signal then asynchronously drives INTR_A on the PCI bus. See the v3.0 core specifications on INTR_A behavior relative to v3.0 input INTR_N. The v3.0 core command register interrupt disable bit controls the INTR_A operation and v3.0 core status register Interrupt status bit flags if v3.0 core INTR_A is asserted.

PLB PCI Bridge Register Descriptions

The PLB PCI Bridge contains addressable registers for read/write operations as shown in Tab le 5. The base address for these registers is set by the base address parameter (C_BASEADDR). The address of each register is then calculated by an offset to the base address as shown in
in the user area of the PCI configuration header are mirrored in the IPIF register space as read-only registers; this is included for debug utility. The registers that exist in a given PLB PCI bridge depend on
the configuration of the bridge.

IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_N High-Order Bits Register Description

When configured to include these registers (i.e., C_INCLUDE_BAROFFSET_REG=1), the values in the registers are used to translate addresses on the PLB bus to the PCI. The register values are used instead of the corresponding parameter C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_N for translation by high-order bit substitution. The parameters C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_N have no effect on the bridge operation if the registers for address translation are included.
The number of registers present is given by the number of IPIF BAR configured in the IPIF (i.e., C_IPIFBAR_NUM). The actual width of the Nth register is given by the number of high-order bits that define the complete address range corresponding to the Nth IPIF BAR. When the register is read, 32-bits are returned with the low-order bits hard-wired to zero.
The IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_N registers are included in the bridge via the parameter C_INCLUDE_BAROFFSET_REG.
These read/write registers allow dynamic, run-time changes of the high-order bits for the substitution in the translation of an address from the PLB bus to the PCI bus. Low-order bits pass directly from the PLB bus to the PCI bus. When the register is read, 32-bits are read with the low-order bits set to zero.
Tab le 13 shows the data format. The programmability of these registers allows PLB address
transactions to access any target on the PCI bus which has been arbitrarily assigned a PCI BAR by a remote or local Host Bridge. Dynamic, run-time changes in the high-order bits for address translation of PLB PCI bridge PCI BAR range translation to PLB slaves is not needed because the PLB slave addresses are defined at build time.
Including these registers makes the parameters, C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_N, irrelevant because the value in the Nth programmable register replaces the values of the corresponding parameter, C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_N, in translating the PLB address to the PCI bus. When the registers are included, the parameters, C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_N, for N=0 to C_IPIFBAR_NUM-1, have no effect.

PLB PCI Full Bridge (v1.00a)
The example below shows how the IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_N registers assignments define translation of PLB addresses within the range of a given IPIFBAR to PCI address space.
Setting C_INCLUDE_BAROFFSET_REG=1 includes high-order bit registers for all IPIFBARs defined by C_IPIFBAR_NUM.
In this example where C_IPIFBAR_NUM=4, the following assignments for each range are made.
C_IPIFBAR_0=0x12340000
C_IPIF_HIGHADDR_0=0x1234FFFF C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_0=Don’t care C_IPIF_SPACETYPE_0=1

C_IPIF_HIGHADDR_3=0x0000007F C_IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_3=Don’t care C_IPIF_SPACETYPE_3=1
Associated with each IPIF BAR for C_IPIFBAR_N for N=0 to 3 are four registers for the high-order bits to be substituted when making the translation to PCI memory and /IO space. For the previous example, the following registers are set.
Register for C_IPIFBAR_0 (IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_0 High-Order Bit Register): Programmable register for 16 high-order bits. The data in the register is substituted for the 16 msb of the address that is translated to PCI bus.
Register for C_IPIFBAR_1 (IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_1 High-Order Bit Register): Programmable register for 19 high-order bits. The data in the register is substituted for the 19 msb of the address that is translated to PCI bus.
Register for C_IPIFBAR_2 (IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_2 High-Order Bit Register): Programmable register for 7 high-order bits. The data in the register is substituted for the 7 msb of the address that is translated to PCI bus.
Register for C_IPIFBAR_3 (IPIFBAR2PCIBAR_3 High-Order Bit Register): Programmable register for 25 high-order bits. The data in the register is substituted for the 25 msb of the address that is translated to PCI bus.
The remaining low-order bits are set to zero when a read of these registers is performed.

Host Bridge Device Number Register Description

The Host Bridge Device Number register is included by setting C_INCLUDE_DEVNUM_REG=1. The register can be included only if configuration functionality is included (i.e., C_INCLUDE_PCI_CONFIG=1).
This register is read/write and is four bits wide. Tab le 14 shows specifics of the data format. The programmability of this register allows programmable definition of the bridge device number and corresponding address bit that is internally connected to its IDSEL signal. The maximum value that can be loaded in this register is given by the value set by parameter C_NUM_IDSEL minus 1 because the device number must be consistent with the number of devices that are supported in configuation transactions.

PLB PCI Transactions

The following subsections discuss details of the following types of transactions for the PLB PCI bridge to realize data throughputs as high as 132 MB/sec. This assumes the PLB clock is 100 MHz or higher. Lower data rates will be realized with lower PLB clock rates for some transactions.
• The section, PLB Master Initiates a Read Request of a PCI target, discusses the PLB master read of a PCI target where the v3.0 core is the PCI initiator.
• The section, PLB Master Initiates a Write Request to a PCI Target, discusses the PLB master write to a PCI target where the v3.0 core is the PCI initiator.
• The section, PCI Initiator Initiates a Read Request of a PLB Slave, discusses the remote PCI initiator read of a PLB device where the v3.0 core is the PCI target
• The section, PCI Initiator Initiates a Write Request to a PLB Slave, discusses the remote PCI initiator write to a PLB device where the v3.0 core is the PCI target.
• The section, Configuration Transactions, discusses PLB master read and write of a PCI target configuration space where the v3.0 core is the PCI initiator.
PLB transactions that are supported are limited to the subset of PLB transactions that are supported by the IPIF. This limitation is caused by the time-multiplexed architecture of the PCI bus where addressing is required to be incremented by 4 bytes per data phase. When operating as a master, the IPIF can either perform single transactions (i.e., 1-8 bytes) or bursts of an arbitrary length. The length is determined by the PCI initiator supplying the data and/or by how fast the PCI initiator supplies/accepts the data. When the IPIF is operating as a PLB slave, it performs single transfers of 1-8 bytes, burst transfers of any number of double words, and 4, 8 or 16-word line transactions. The IPIF always performs line read requests on the IPIC with the address double word aligned, independent of the target word requested. This is required because the PCI time-multiplexed address and data bus requires sequential addressing. PCI commands that are supported include I/O read, I/O write, memory read, memory write, memory read multiple, memory read line, and memory write invalidate. translations of PLB transactions to PCI commands, while in Tab le 16 shows the translations of PCI commands to PLB transactions.
Tab le 15 shows the
The PCI transactions that are supported is limited to a subset of all PCI transactions because some features on the PCI are not supported on the PLB. Specifically, dynamic byte enable during multiple data phase transfers is not supported in burst transactions on the PLB. The PLB supports only full double words in burst read and write transactions. It is the user’s responsibility to insure that all byte enables are asserted for remote PCI initiator transactions with multiple data phases.
The Sl_wait signal is utilized in bridge PLB slave responses because the latency in the bridge, and the possibly-slower PCI clock which would not allow completion of read operations prior to a PLB IPIF time-out. The IPIF has a timer limiting the bridge response time, however, the timer is inhibited when Sl_wait is asserted. Bus lock is utilized to eliminate arbitration cycles when appropriate.

• Both PCI and PLB clocks will be independent global buffers. For Virtex-4, RCLK must also be driven by global buffer.
• The PLB clock can be slower or faster than the PCI clock. For Virtex-4, RCLK must be 200 MHz.
• Address space on the PCI side accessible from the PLB side must be translated to a 2N contiguous block on the PLB side. Up to six independent blocks are possible. Each block has parameters for
base address (BAR), high address which must define a 2 memory designator (memory or I/O).

• Address translations in both directions are performed by high-order address bits substitution in the address vector before crossing to the other bus domain. Byte addressing integrity is maintained between buses.
• The user’s system must be designed to accomodate certain restrictions on throttling by the PLB PCI Bridge. Both PLB and PCI burst transactions may be broken up into multiple transactions on the target or slave bus due to restrictions on bus protocol and modules in the PLB PCI bridge. Additional PLB and PCI transactions are automatically initiated when needed to complete a transaction. The first restriction is that the v3.0 core does not permit throttling of data as either the initiator or target except for insertion of wait states prior to the first data transfer. Another restriction is, that as a master on the PLB, the PLB PCI Bridge is not allowed to throttle, but the PCI remote initiator can cause the need to throttle on the PLB. This is particularly true when the PCI clock is significantly slower than the PLB clock. The PLB PCI Bridge circumvents the throttling limitations by terminating transactions as needed and reinitiating the request to continue as needed. Parameters allow the user to optimize the burst size for high data throughput and minimizing the number of transactions needed to complete the desired burst transactions.
• The interrupt status register in the IPIF contains information to identify an error conditions during the implementation of the PLB PCI bridge and the troubleshooting of the system. To clear the interrupt register bits that were "set" with an error condition, a write of a "1" to the bit position corresponding to the operation must be performed.
• The v3.0 core does not permit throttling of data at either the initiator or target except for insertion of wait states prior to the first data transfer. Consequently, if the PLB device requires throttling that affects the PCI transaction, the PLB PCI Bridge must terminate the transaction. If the v3.0 core is the initiator, a new PCI transaction must be initiated to continue data transfer. Although PLB masters are not allowed to throttle data flow, the combined IPIF and PLB PCI Bridge operation can result in the need for throttling data on the PCI bus, especially when the PLB clock is slower than the PCI clock. The PLB PCI Bridge handles throttling by terminating initiator transactions as needed and continuing the PLB master request with a new PCI transaction. Similarly, new PLB transactions are automatically initiated when needed to complete a PCI initiator transaction.

PLB Master Initiates a Read Request of a PCI target

This section discusses the operation of a PLB master initiating single, burst and cacheline reads of a remote PCI target. In these transactions, the v3.0 core is the PCI initiator.
The operation is similar whether the PCI space is memory or I/O space with the exception of the command sent to the v3.0 core. A parameter associated with each BAR must be consistent with the remote PCI device memory type as either I/O or memory. Based on this parameter setting, either I/O or memory commands are asserted. The PLB IPIF and bridge can accept both fixed length and arbitrary
length (i.e., burst length is determined by PLB_rdBurst signal) burst transactions on the PLB. Only one
PLB master read of a PCI target is supported at a time.
Commands supported in PLB master read operations are I/O read, memory read, and memory read multiple. The command used is based on the address and qualifier decode, which includes the address, memory type (i.e., I/O or memory type), and if burst is asserted. transactions to PCI commands.

• If the target PCI address space is memory space, the 2 lsbs are set to 00 (i.e., linear incrementing

mode).
• If the PCI target address space is IO-space, the 2 LSBs are passed unchanged from that presented on the PLB bus.
If the PLB transaction is not a burst (i.e., PLB_rdBurst is not high), a single PCI transaction (I/O or Memory Read command) is performed and the PLB transaction is terminated on the first double word transaction. This results in low data throughput.
If the transaction is a PLB burst transaction (i.e., PLB_rdBurst is high) and the space type is memory, the PLB PCI Bridge issues a memory read multiple command on the PCI bus and attempts to fill the bridge PCI2IPIF FIFO. Throttling can be performed by the PLB PCI bridge supplying data to the remote PLB master by delaying acknowledgements until the data is loaded in the FIFO. All data is transmitted to the PLB Dbus as soon as it is received. Because the PCI bus is usually slower than the PLB, significant throttling time can occur. If the PLB PCI Bridge fills the FIFO in the bridge or the latency timer expires, the PLB PCI Bridge terminates the prefetch read operation. The prefetch read operation can be terminated by the remote PCI target as well.
The user must specify when the PLB PCI Bridge is to start another prefetch read of the remote PCI target by setting the paramter C_TRIG_PCI_READ_OCC_LEVEL. This parameter is a number which is compared to the number of words in the PCI2PLB FIFO. If the number of words in the PCI2PLB FIFO is less than C_TRIG_PCI_READ_OCC_LEVEL, the PLB PCI Bridge starts prefetch reads of the remote PCI target. The PLB PCI Bridge determines the address to insure consecutive data is prefetched.
If the PCI2IPIF_FIFO is emptied before more data can be prefetched, the PLB transaction will be terminated. When the PLB master terminates the transaction with data remaining in the FIFO, the FIFO is flushed. Because the data is required to be prefetchable, data is not lost when the FIFO is flushed.
Dynamic byte enable is not supported in Xilinx PLB burst operations and is not supported in the PLB Master read of a PCI target. All byte enable bits are asserted in PLB master burst read operations.
To comply with the PCI specification, PLB masters are required to re-issue commands when a PCI retry is asserted. PCI retries are communicated to the PLB master by asserting PLB rearbitrate without an interrupt.
It is the responsibility of the master to properly read data from non-prefetchable PCI targets. For example, the master must perform single transaction reads of non-prefetchable PCI targets to avoid destructive read operations of a PCI target.
Abnormal Terminations
In the context of the PLB PCI bridge, cacheline transactions are special cases of a burst. Abnormal terminations during a cacheline read operation have the same response as a burst read transaction.
• If a parity error occurs during the address phase, the PLB PCI Bridge causes an IPIF timeout for most cases and always asserts the PLB Master Read SERR interrupt. If the remote PCI target follows the response recommended by the PCI specification to not claim the transactions, the PLB PCI Bridge terminates the transaction with a master abort and an IPIF timeout occurs. When an IPIF timeout occurs, Slv_MErr is asserted by the IPIF. If the target does not follow PCI specification recommendation and transfers data, then depending on the target decode speed and the PLB/PCI clock ratio, data may be transferred with PLB Master Read SERR interrupt being asserted.

SERR error on data phase could occur on the first PCI transaction or on a subsequent transaction due to an abnormal disconnect that allowed automatic reissue of the PCI read command. Most of the data transferred prior to the SERR assertion will be transferred. Terminating the data transfer to the PLB master depends on the throttling done by the target device and PLB/PCI clock ratio. After the SERR error is transferred across the time-domain boundary, an IPIF timeout is allowed to occur and the IPIF asserts Slv_MErr. In all cases, the PLB Master Read SERR interrupt is asserted.

• If on a single transfer, a PERR error is detected, data is transferred and the PLB Master Read PERR interrupt is asserted. The PERR status register bit is set as well.
• If the target disconnects on a burst transfer, either with or without data, the v3.0 core terminates the PCI transaction. When the PCI2IPIF FIFO occupancy is below the predetermined level (i.e., C_TRIG_PCI_READ_OCC_LEVEL), another PCI transaction is attempted as long as the PLB master request is active. If a retry is issued on a subsequent PCI transfer, and the PLB master is requesting more data, an automatic retry is issued when the FIFO occupancy is below the predetermined level.

When an IPIF timeout occurs, Slv_MErr is asserted by the IPIF. Recall that a target abort indicates that the target cannot proceed with subsequent transactions; this is expected to be a major failure most likely requiring a reset.
• If the address attempts to go beyond the valid range on a burst transfer, the PLB PCI Bridge terminates the PCI read operation on the last valid address. The FIFO contains only data from valid addresses and transfers to the IPIF continue until the PLB master terminates the transaction or the FIFO is empty. Note that the PLB IPIF does not test for the case of the implied incrementing of the PLB address incrementing beyond a valid range on a burst, hence, the request can continue when the FIFO is empty. If this occurs, the bridge will allow an IPIF timeout to occur. When an IPIF timeout occurs, Slv_MErr is asserted by the IPIF.

PLB Master Initiates a Write Request to a PCI Target

This section discusses the operation of an PLB master initiating single, burst and cache line write transactions to a remote PCI target. All PLB write transactions are posted-writes. Because both single PLB writes and burst PLB writes to the bridge are fire-and-forget, any error in completing the write occurs mostly likely after the PLB transaction is completed. The errors are signaled by an interrupt

when an incomplete PCI transactions occur or when PCI errors occur. Details of the abnormal terminations are discussed in a later section. In these transactions, the v3.0 core is the PCI initiator.
The operation is essentially the same whether the PCI space is memory or I/O space; the only difference is the command sent to the v3.0 core by the PLB PCI Bridge. The bridge can accept both fixed length and arbitrary length burst transactions on the PLB. All PLB burst transfers are 64-bits per data phase; dynamic byte enable is not supported by the PLB protocol. The length of a burst defined as arbitrary length is defined by the master signal cacheline write transactions to be sequential fill type, independent of the target word; however, the PLB IPIF requires the address received during a cacheline write operation to be the first word of the line being written.
Commands supported in PLB master write operations are I/O write and memory write (both single and burst). The command used is based on the address/qualifier decode, which includes the address, memory type (i.e., I/O or memory type), if a double word is written and if

PLB_wrBurst is asserted.
Both single and burst write transfers are posted so the data is buffered in the IPIF2PCI FIFO, which has a depth defined by the parameter C_IPIF2PCI_FIFO_ABUS_WIDTH. Due to the FIFO backup requirement of the v3.0 core, the FIFO usable buffer depth is the actual depth minus 3 words.
Data is loaded in the FIFO on each clock cycle that the write request is asserted and the address decode is valid. If the transaction is not a burst (i.e., PLB_wrBurst is not high), two cases can occur because the PLB bus is 64-bit and the PCI bus is 32-bit. If the PLB transfer is a single word or bytes within a single word, a single PCI transaction (I/O or Memory Write command) is performed. If the PLB transfer is a double word or bytes within both words of the double word, a burst of 2 words is performed on the PCI bus. In PLB burst transfers (i.e., PLB_wrBurst is asserted), the data is buffered and the PCI transfer is initiated when the FIFO is filled to the level defined by the parameter C_TRIG_PCI_DATA_XFER_OCC_LEVEL or when the PLB write is completed.
Only one PLB master write to a PCI target is supported at a time. Write transactions are not queued in the bridge. After the PLB write to the bridge is completed and while a write to PCI is being completed, the PLB PCI Bridge asserts PLB rearbitrate to terminate subsequent PLB transactions. When a posted write is complete, another write request from a PLB master can be initiated.
Consistent with the PCI specification, the PLB PCI Bridge re-issues commands when an PCI retry is asserted. To avoid permanent livelock, the posted write is attempted to be completed up to a predefined number of retries defined by the parameter C_NUM_PCI_RETRIES_IN_WRITES. Re-issuing the write operation on the PCI is automatic.
It is the responsibility of the master to properly write data to a PCI target from non-prefetchable PLB sources. For example, it must perform single transaction reads of non-prefetchable PLB sources to avoid loss of data in fire-and-forget writes to a PCI target.

In addition, the user must insure that any burst writes do not attempt to write beyond a valid address range. The PLB IPIF does not check for valid address during data phases.

PCI Initiator Initiates a Read Request of a PLB Slave

This section discusses the operation of a remote PCI initiator asserting both single and multiple read commands to read data from a remote PLB slave. For these transactions, the v3.0 core is the PCI target.
Because all PLB address space must be memory space in the PCI sense, memory read, memory read multiple and memory read line are the only read commands from a remote PCI initiator that the PLB PCI Bridge will respond to. The I/O read command will be ignored and the configuration read command will be responded to by the v3.0 core, but has limited impact on the PLB PCI Bridge.
The PLB PCI Bridge determines if the PCI read command is translated to a PLB read as a burst or a single read operation based on the PCI command asserted by the PCI initiator. translations of PCI commands to PLB transactions. During an execution of PCI read commands, a PLB rearbitrate from a remote PLB slave is translated to a PCI retry. Only one PCI initiator read of a PLB slave is supported at a time.

For memory read commands (i.e., not memory read multiple), the address presented on the PCI is translated to the PLB address space by high-order bit substitution with the 2 lsbs set as defined by the byte enable vector for the first data phase. The lsbs are set to the lowest address of the byte lane asserted in the byte enable vector as required by the Xilinx PLB specification. Byte enables from the PCI bus are passed correctly to the PLB in single PLB read transactions. For memory read multiple read commands, the address presented on the PLB is double word aligned.
Every memory read multiple command that translates to a burst read operation is performed with the full 64 bits on the PLB independent of the byte enable specified by the PCI initiator. The byte enable bits asserted by the PCI initiator in memory read multiple operations of an PLB slave are ignored, and all byte are read during the PLB burst read operation per PLB protocol. Hence, dynamic byte enable is not supported by PCI initiator burst read from PLB slaves. The system designer must insure that a burst read with all byte enables asserted is not destructive. The user must insure that corrupting the fidelity of the PCI read command with arbitrary byte enables asserted by translating to a PLB burst with all byte enable asserted is not destructive.

Furthermore, it is the responsibility of the PCI initiator to properly read data from non-prefetchable PLB slaves. For example, it must perform single transaction reads of non-prefetchable PLB slaves to avoid destructive read operations of a PLB slave. However, some protection is provided in the hardware as described in a later subsection.
As shown in Tab le 16, memory read commands (i.e., not multiple) are translated to single PLB transactions. A remote PCI initiator can request more than one data transfer with the memory read command, but on the first data phase, the PLB PCI Bridge handles each data request as single PLB transactions with a disconnect with data on the PCI bus. This behavior is due to the characteristic of the v3.0 core which does not allow throttling data except as a wait before the first data phase complete. Data throughput will be low when memory read commands are utilized.
Data throughput can be very high with memory read multiple transactions. Memory read multiple commands of memory are translated to PLB burst read transactions of length defined by the PLB PCI Bridge. The bridge will attempt to fill the IPIF2PCI FIFO. Unless the remote PLB slave terminates the transaction the bridge will fill the FIFO with one burst prefetch read. The prefetch read will not read beyond the high-address defined by the PCI BAR length parameter. After the remote PCI initiator terminates the read transaction, the IPIF2PCI_FIFO is flushed of prefetched data that has not been read by the remote PCI initiator.
When read data is received from a remote PLB slave, the data is loaded in the IPIF2PCI FIFO and synchronized across the PLB/PCI time domain boundary which takes up to two PCI clock cycles to accomplish. The PLB slave can throttle the data read by the remote PCI initiator. If the FIFO is emptied (i.e., the PCI initiator is accepting data faster than the PLB slave is providing it), the PLB PCI Bridge must disconnect with data because the v3.0 core does not allow throttling after the first data phase.
Throttling by the PLB slave and the v3.0 restriction of not allowing throttling of data except as a wait before the first data phase completes can cause low data throughput. Impact on system performance can be minimized by optimizing the parameter that sets the FIFO level when the first data is transferred on the PCI bus during a memory read multiple operation. The parameter is C_TRIG_PCI_XFER_OCC_LEVEL and setting this parameter throttles the first data phase until the FIFO has buffered the number of words set by the parameter. This insures that the transfer is at least this number of words even if the remote PLB slave throttles on the PLB bus.
Another parameter that can increase data throughput is the FIFO occupancy level that triggers the bridge to prefetch more data from the remote PLB slave (C_TRIG_IPIF_READ_OCC_LEVEL). Properly setting this parameter helps insure that the FIFO does not empty while the remote PCI initiator is requesting data.
In a PCI initiator read multiple command of a PLB slave, the Master IP module attempts to keep the IPIF2PCI_FIFO full of data read from an PLB slave device for subsequent transfer to the PCI initiator. If the word address presented on the PCI bus is mid-double word aligned (i.e., 0x4 or 0xC), a single word is read from the PLB slave before the burst prefetch read is started to attempt to fill the FIFO. Data remaining in the FIFO when the PCI initiator terminates the memory read multiple command is discarded. Prefetch is not performed on memory read commands (i.e., not memory read multiple).
EARLY ACCESS
The PLB PCI Bridge operates the same, independently of whether PLB clock is faster or slower than the PCI clock. Single data request on the PCI bus are translated in the same way to the PLB bus with the only difference being the delays due to the varying clock periods. Because the v3.0 core cannot throttle data flow, the PCI data flow is very different for read multiple commands depending on the relative clock speeds. If the PLB clock is faster, the data flow is limited by the PCI bus and the data flow is, in most cases, one continuous read multiple.

Product Specification
PLB PCI Full Bridge (v1.00a)
If the PLB clock is slower, the data flow is a series of PCI transactions that are terminated by the PLB PCI Bridge as a disconnect without data after the number of data phases specified by C_TRIG_PCI_DATA_XFER_OCC_LEVEL, or a few more depending on the PLB slave throttling characteristics and relative clock rates. This is because the PLB slave does not supply data fast enough for execution of read multiple command with single PCI clock cycle data phases. Single clock cycle data phases are required because the v3.0 core cannot throttle the data. The PLB PCI Bridge can throttle the first data transfer to PCI until a predefined number of words are available in the FIFO which is set by C_TRIG_PCI_DATA_XFER_OCC_LEVEL. This parameter will differ for different clock rates and must be adjusted to insure that PCI spec is not violated. One PCI specification that can be violated is the maximum allowed throttling of the first data transfer.
Abnormal Terminations
1. If an address parity error is detected, the v3.0 core will either claim the transaction and issue a Target Abort, or will not claim the transaction and a Master Abort will occur (see v3.0 core documentation). When a Target Abort is issued, the v3.0 core asserts SERR_N, if enabled.
2. If SERR_N is asserted by a remote agent in a data phase on either a single or a burst transfer, it is left to the PCI initiator to report the error and initiate any recovery effort that may be needed. The PLB PCI Bridge disconnects with data as soon as possible and any data left is the internal FIFOs are discarded.
3. If on either a single or a burst transfer a PERR error is detected during a data phase, the PLB PCI Bridge does nothing. Whether the PCI initiator continues or not is initiator dependent.
4. If either a read or a read multiple command is performed and a PLB rearbitrate is asserted by the PLB slave on the first request for data, the PLB PCI Bridge commands the v3.0 core to disconnect without data (i.e., PCI retry), and the PCI initiator is required to retry the transaction.
5. If a PLB slave rearbitrate occurs on the second or subsequent retried read request during a read multiple command, the PLB PCI Bridge automatically retries the PLB request and attempts to keep the fifo full. If the fifo is emptied before a retry is successful, the bridge disconnects without data when the fifo is empty.
6. If a PLB Sl_MErr occurs during either a read or a read multiple command, the PLB PCI Bridge commands the v3.0 core to immediately disconnect without data and the PCI interrupt is strobed. Sl_MErr can be asserted due to an address phase timeout or a slave assertion of the error signal.
7. If during a read multiple command a PLB slave asserts PLB_MRdBTerm which terminates the PLB burst read, the PLB PCI Bridge automatically retries the PLB request and attempts to keep the fifo full. If the fifo is emptied before a retry is successful, the bridge disconnects without data when the fifo is empty.
8. On a read multiple command transaction, in which the bridge prefectches data, the address will not prefetch beyond the valid range. The IP Master in the bridge will attempt to fill the FIFO with data from addresses up to the limit of the valid range which is defined by the PCIBAR length parameter. All transactions on the PLB will be burst reads of the PLB slave that are terminated by the slave, terminated by the FIFO being filled, or terminated when the last address of the defined range is reached. This response is adopted rather than a target abort which is an option per PCI specification. Recall that the v3.0 core cannot throttle data as a target after the first data phase. As data is read by the PCI agent, a disconnect will occur when the FIFO is emptied.

PCI Initiator Initiates a Write Request to a PLB Slave

This section discusses the operation of a remote PCI initiator asserting the memory write command to write data to a remote PLB slave. For these transactions, the v3.0 core is the PCI target.
Since all PLB address space must be memory space in the PCI sense, the memory write command is the only write command from a remote PCI initiator to which the PLB PCI Bridge will respond. The command decode and number words written dictates whether the PLB write operation is a burst or single. Byte enables are buffered with data on remote PCI initiator writes to a remote PLB slave, but only transfered for singles because the PLB write protocol does not support dynamic byte enable. All byte enables must be asserted in multiple data phase burst transactions. The command I/O write will be ignored and the configuration write command will be responded to by the v3.0 core but has limited impact on the PLB PCI Bridge.
All memory write commands are posted, with error notification mostly likely occurring after the PCI transaction with the bridge has completed. The main reason for posted operation is that the v3.0 core does not permit data throttling by the PLB PCI Bridge to utilize PLB burst write commands without buffering a parameterized number of double words of data. It is desirable to utilize the PLB burst write command when possible to increase data throughput.
To utilize burst write PLB transactions, data is buffered in the IPIF master PCI2IPIF FIFO until either the PCI write operation terminates or until the parameterized number of double words have been accepted. The number of words to start the PLB burst write is set by the parameter
C_TRIG_IPIF_WRBURST_OCC_LEVEL. If the parameterized number of double words are received, the
data are burst written over the PLB until the FIFO is emptied, which can take multiple transactions if the PLB slave terminates the transaction. If the PCI write is terminated before the parameterized

Product Specification
PLB PCI Full Bridge (v1.00a)
number of double words are written, the IPIF master burst writes starts after the PCI transaction ends. The bridge attempts to burst write all the data to the PLB slave device.
Although dynamic byte enable is supported on the PCI bus, dynamic byte enable is not supported by the PLB PCI bridge due to the fact that the PLB protocol requires all byte enables to be asserted during burst writes on the PLB. Consequently, it is the user’s responsibility to insure that all byte enables be asserted on the PCI in burst write operations to the PLB PCI bridge.
A PCI initiator can write any number of double words of data in a burst operation to the PLB PCI bridge and the bridge will attempt to burst the data to the PLB slave in a burst write operation on the PLB. The slave may terminate the PLB burst or the FIFO may empty because the FIFO is not filled as fast as the data is transmitted over the PLB.
Only one PCI initiator write to a PLB slave is supported at a time. It is possible for the PLB PCI Bridge to be completing a posted write operation when another write command is received. When this happens, the PLB PCI Bridge will force the v3.0 to disconnect without data until the posted write operation to a remote PLB slave has completed.
A write to a remote slave that is teminated before the FIFO is emptied is automatically retried by the PLB/v3.0 bridge. Address bookkeeping is performed in the IPIF to permit the correct sequence of PLB transactions as either bursts or single transactions and/or combinations of the two as required to complete the transfer.
Abnormal Terminations
• If an address parity error is detected, the v3.0 core will either claim the transaction and issue a
target abort, or will not claim the transaction and a master abort will occur (see v3.0 core documentation). If enabled, the v3.0 core asserts SERR_N when address phase parity errors are detected.
• If SERR_N is asserted by a remote agent in a data phase, the bridge disconnects without data for
burst transfers and the PLB-side PCI Initiator Write SERR interrupt is asserted. If the SERR occurs after the IP master device has started a PLB transaction, the PLB transaction is terminated as soon as possible. The PLB PCI Bridge flushes any data and resets for a subsequent transaction. It is left to the PCI initiator to report the error on the PCI-side and initiate any recovery effort that may be needed.
ACCESS
Y
• If a PERR error is detected on a write transfer, the v3.0 core asserts the PERR signal, if enabled, and
sets the Detected PERR error in the status register. The PLB PCI Bridge disconnects without data for burst transfers. On the PLB-side, the bridge terminates the PLB transfer as soon as possible if the transaction is in progress. Due to the latency in PERR, the data for which the PERR was detected most likely has been written to the PLB slave. It is left to the PCI initiator to report the error and initiate any recovery effort that may be needed.
• If at any time while data from the PCI2PLB_FIFO is being written to a PLB slave, a PLB rearbitrate
occurs, the PLB PCI Bridge will perform up to a parameterized number of write retries per PCI write command. The parameter independent parameter from the one that sets the number of PCI write retries attempted in PLB Master writes to a PCI target. The wait time between write retries is the PLB arbitration time plus one PLB clock cycle. This is not a parameterized wait time like in the PLB Master to PCI write operation. Furthermore, the PLB PCI Bridge IP master write state machine is tied up during the retry operation, therefore, PCI initiator writes are inhibited. Target disconnects without data (PCI retry) will be asserted for subsequent PCI transactions when the transactions are inhibited.If the

defined number of retries are not successful, the PCI interrupt will be strobed. Data in the write buffer is flushed when the PCI interrupt is strobed.
• If during a write command a PLB slave asserts PLB_MWrBTerm which terminates the PLB burst
write, the PLB PCI Bridge automatically retries the PLB request and attempts to empty the fifo. The IPIF will try the number of times given by the parameter C_NUM_IPIF_RETRIES_IN_WRITES and the behavior is the same as that for PLB rearbitrate which is described above. Again, if the fire-and-forget write is not successfully completed in the parameterized number of retries, the PCI interrupt is strobed.
If at any time while data from the write buffer is being written to a PLB slave a PLB Sl_MErr occurs,
the IP Master aborts the PLB transaction. When this occurs, the PLB PCI Bridge strobes the PCI interrupt. Sl_MErr can be asserted due to an address phase timeout or a slave assertion of the error signal. Data in the write buffer is flushed when the PCI interrupt is strobed.
• If on a write command transaction the PCI initiator attempts to go beyond the valid address range,
the PLB PCI Bridge will not accept data beyond the valid range. Only valid data is buffered in the bridge and all buffered data will be transferred to the PLB slave. This is adopted rather than a target abort. Due to pipelining in the v3.0 core, disconnect without data can occur if the initiator is throttling the data when the first address is near the end of the valid range.
Tab le 20 summarizes most abnormal conditions that a PLB slave can respond with to a memory write
command and how the response is translated to the PCI initiator.

Configuration Transactions

Functionality for host bridge configuration of PCI agents can be implemented in the PLB PCI bridge at build time by setting C_INCLUDE_PCI_CONFIG=1. When the bridge is not configured with host bridge configuration functionality, IDSEL of the v3.0 core is connected to the IDSEL port of the bridge. When the bridge is configured with host bridge configuration functionality, IDSEL of the v3.0 core is connected internally to the specified address signal (as described below) and the IDSEL port of the

Product Specification
PLB PCI Full Bridge (v1.00a)
bridge is not used. As with Memory and IO data transactions, byte addressing integrity is maintained in configuration transfers across the bus.
When host bridge configuration functionality is implemented in the PLB PCI bridge, the v3.0 core in the PLB PCI bridge must be configured first. The minimum that must be set is the Bus master enable bit in the command register and the latency timer register. This requirement is because the v3.0 core has the capability to configure only itself until the Bus master enable bit is set in the command register of the v3.0 core and the latency timer register is properly set to avoid timeouts. If the v3.0 core latency timer is set to 0 value, configuration writes to remote PCI devices will not complete and configuration reads of remote PCI devices will terminate due to the latency timer expiration. Configuration reads of remote PCI devices with the latency timer set to 0 will return 0xFFFFFFFF.
Tab le 21 shows the results of configuring the v3.0 core configuration header in the PLB PCI bridge by
both PLB-side configuration transactions and by remote PCI host bridge configuration transactions from the PCI-side. This example assumes all PCI BARs are designated memory space which is the only allowed PCIBAR memory type. Note that PLB-side configuration of the v3.0 core enables all functionality in the Command Status Register and sets the latency timer to maximum count for most any data value written to the registers. This behavior is an artifact of the v3.0 core behavior.

Configuration Space Header

The LogiCORE v3.0 core used in the PLB PCI bridge can be configured with functionality to address a wide range of applications.
Fields of the Configuration Space Header are Device ID, Vendor ID, Class Code, Rev ID, Subsystem ID, Subsystem Vendor ID, Maximum Latency and Minimum Grant.

bytes are swapped for maintaining byte addressing integrity.
The v3.0 core is PCI 2.2 compliant core, but it has PCI 2.3 compliant features. The v3.0 core documentation should be reviewed for details of compliance.
Configuration transactions from the PLB-side of the bridge are supported by the PLB PCI bridge. The protocol follows the PCI 2.2 specification but with changes required to adapt to the PLB-side bus protocol. The primary difference is that all registers (Configuration Address Port, Configuration Data Port, and Bus Number/Subordinate Bus Number) are on the PLB-side of the bridge and are not accessible from the PCI-side via I/O transactions on the PCI bus. This approach is adopted so that one BAR of the v3.0 core is not required for the Configuration Port registers. The registers are mapped relative to the bridge device base address as shown in configured with PCI host bridge configuration functionality.
Data is loaded in the Configuration Address Port with the Byte format specified in the PCI 2.2. specification. A PLB-side read of the Configuration Data Port initiates a Configuration Read command with data returned to the PLB-side upon completion of the PCI-side read command. A PLB-side write

to the Configuration Data Port register initiates a Configuration Write transaction on the PCI bus. Determination of whether the read or write transfer is type 0 or type 1 is done automatically.
Both type 0 and type 1 configuration transactions are supported. The type of transaction is determined from the Bus number in the Configuration Address Port register (Bits 8-15) and the bus numbers in the Bus Number/Subordinate Bus Number register. The local bus number is located at bits 8-15 and the maximum subordinate bus number is located at bits 24-31 in the Bus Number/Subordinate Bus Number register. If the Bus number in the Configuration Address Port register is equal to the local bus number in the Bus Number/Subordinate Bus Number register (bits 8-15), a type 0 transaction is performed. If the Bus number in the Configuration Address Port register is greater than the bus number in the Bus Number/Subordinate Bus Number register and less than or equal to the maximum subordinate Bus number, a type 1 transaction is performed. If a configuration transaction to a Bus Number not satisfying the inequality relation is attempted, then PLB Sl_MErr is asserted. When a configuration read from a bus number not in the subordinate bus range is initiated, nothing occurs on the PCI bus and an IPIF timout occurs with the IPIF asserting PLB Sl_MErr. When a configuration write to a bus number not in the subordinate bus range is initiated, nothing occurs on the PCI bus, the data is discarded and PLB Sl_MErr is asserted. These conditions are equivalent to the situation where the master enable bit in the configuration command register of the v3.0 core is not set.
If a configuration read to a device number not assigned to a device on the PCI bus is attempted, a Master Abort occurs on the PCI bus, and all ones are returned on the PLB bus.
IDSEL is asserted for the device to be configured in all type 0 configuration transactions. The most common implementation method for IDSEL is used in this bridge implementation where address lines AD[31:16] are required to be mapped to IDSEL for each device.
The mapping is shown below.
• IDSEL of device 0 is connected to AD16
• IDSEL of device 1 is connected to AD17
• IDSEL of device 2 is connected to AD18.
• ...
• IDSEL of device 15 is connected to AD31
A decode of the device number in the Configuration Address Port is used to determine which address line/IDSEL is asserted.
As noted, when the bridge has host bridge configuration functionality, IDSEL of the v3.0 core is connected internally to the AD-bit specified by the C_BRIDGE_IDSEL_ADDR_BIT parameter.
C_NUM_IDSEL specifies the number of PCI agents that can be configured on the PCI bus by specifying the number of IDSEL lines that are decoded and assigned to address lines AD[31:16]. Each device on the bus must have its IDSEL line properly connected to the PCI AD bus. It can be resistively-coupled to the associated address bit or direct coupling, if it is not detrimental to performance per PCI 2.2 specification. Because the v3.0 core does not support address stepping, resistive coupling of IDSEL with the assigned address bit must be sufficient to ensure proper signal levels at IDSEL without utilizing address stepping.

Design Debug

The OBP PCI Bridge has a test vector output (PCI_monitor) to facilitate system debug (i.e., adding an ILA to a system). The test vector allows monitoring the PCI bus and is the output of IO-buffers that are instantiated in the LogiCORE v3.0 PCI core. PCLK, RCLK, and Bus2PCI_INTR are not included in the test vector because these signals do not have io-buffers instantiated in the Bridge and are accessible to use directly at the core top-level or above. If the port is not connected in the EDK tool top-level mhs-file, the wrapper simply leaves this port open. PCI Bus monitoring test vector bit definition is listed in

Product Specification
PLB PCI Full Bridge (v1.00a)
The constraints are also implemented automatically in the EDK tool flow with any tool option that invokes bridge synthesis. In this flow, tcl-scripts generate the ucf-file constraints and place them in a file in the OPB PCI Bridge directory of the project implementation directory. The ucf-file constraints are then included in the ngc-file generated in the EDK tool flow. The user can check the ucf-file in the implementation directory of the bridge directory to verify that the constraints are included. As noted above, the user can include all constraints in the top-level ucf-file. When the constraints are included in both the top-level ucf-file and the bridge ngc-file (via the bridge directory ucf-file), then the top-level ucf-file overrides any conflicting constraints in the bridge ngc-file.
To remind the user that the following constraints must be included, PLATGEN will generate the message:
The OPB PCI Bridge design requires design constraints to guarantee performance. Please refer to the OPB IPIF/LogiCORE PCI64 v3.0 bridge design data sheet for details.
Additional bridge specific constraints are required and an example ucf-file is provided in the EDK pcores library. To remind the user that the additional bridge related constraints must be included in the top-level ucf-file, PLATGEN will generate the message:

The EDK flow checks if the PCI clock is a PAD input and if it is, then the OFFSET constraints shown below are includes in the bridge ngc-file.

Target Technology

The intended target technology is for devices: QPro-R, Virtex-II, QPro Virtex-II, Spartan-II, Spartan-IIE, Virtex, Virtex-II, Virtex-E, Virtex-II Pro, and Virtex-4.
Virtex-4 Support
To meet PCI specification setup and hold times with the Virtex-4 architecture, it is necessary to insert an IDELAY primitive between the pad and I/O buffer of most PCI signals and to include additional constraints in the ucf-file. When IDELAY primitives are used in the mode required by the LogiCORE v3.0 core, IDELAYCTRL (idelay controllers) are required. Also required is a 200 MHz reference clock supplied by the user which is used by both IDELAY and IDELAYCTRL primitives. Note that these primitives are only required for Virtex-4 architecture. The additional constraints are discussed after the discussion of primitives specific to Virtex-4 devices.
The 200 MHz clock is input to port RCLK and must be driven by a global buffer. If the architecture is not off the Virtex-4 platform, the port does not connect to anything in the opb_pci bridge, and it might be omitted from the MHS-file. This allows upgrading to v1.02.a from v1.01.a without changing ports. Recall that v1.01.a does not support the Virtex-4 architecture. It is required that the 200 MHz clock be stable when OPB_RST is asserted to the OPB PCI Bridge. An unstable clock can result failure of OPB PCI Bridge operation. The clock source can be an external source or generated with a DCM in the FPGA. Application Notes and Implementation Guides for the LogiCORE v3.0 core, as well as reference designs using the OPB PCI Bridge, present options for generating the 200 MHz clock.
IDELAY primitives are instantiated automatically by the bridge when the Virtex-4 C_FAMILY parameter is set to the Virtex-4 architecure. The EDK tools automatically set this parameter and it can not be changed by the user. There is a special case to consider for instantiation of IDELAY primitives. Port GNT_N requires the IDELAY primitive only if the port is connected to a package pin. If GNT_N is connected to an internal signal (e.g., an FPGA internal arbiter such as pci_arbiter_v1_00_a) or connected to ground, then an IDELAY primitive is not needed. EDK tools have the system level information to determine if GNT_N is connected to a pad or has an internal connection. This accomplished with a tcl-script in the OPB PCI Bridge pcore library that is called by the EDK tools. EDK tools automatically sets the parameter C_INCLUDE_GNT_DELAY which controls if an IDELAY primitive is included in the GNT_N signal path. C_INCLUDE_GNT_DELAY defaults to exclude the IDELAY primitive and must be set by the user if the core is used outside EDK tools with GNT_N connected to a pin.
IDELAYCTRL primitives are not as automatic in the build procedure. It is required that the user instantiate the number of IDELAYCTRL primitive needed for their design and to provide LOC contraints for each IDELAYCTRL. This is required for EDK 8.1 tools because when instantiating only

one IDELAYCTRl without LOC constraints, the tools will replicate the primitive throughout the design. Replicating the primitive has the undesirable results of higher power consumption, higher power consumption, utilization of more global clock resources, and greater use of routing resources. To prevent these undesirable results, a procedure is described in the next paragraph for instantiating the IDELAYCTRLs. See the for more details on IDELAYCTRL and usage. Tools beyond ISE 7.1 might handle IDELAYCTRL instantiation differently.
It turns out that the number of signals in the PCI protocol requires at least two IDELAYCTRL primitives when implemented in the Virtex-4 architecture. The actual number depends on the pinout defined by the user. To avoid the undesirable results noted above, the LogiCORE v3 PCI core standalone core is fixed to use two IDELAYCTRL instantiations and prescribes pinouts that require only two IDELAYCTRL primitives. To provide more flexibility to the user, the OPB PCI Bridge allows specifying the number of IDELAYCTRL primitives from two to six; this is set at build time by set the parameter C_NUM_IDELAYCTRL. However, it might be difficult to meet timing when the pinout is spread out to require four to six IDELAYCTRL primitives and it is recommended to use a PCI pinout packed together enough to require only two IDELAYCTRL primitives. See the IDELAYCTRL usage and design guidance or the Virtex -4 Library Guide for IDELAYCTRL primitives for more details.
Virtex-4 User Guide discussion of IDELAYCTRL usage and design guidance
Virtex-4 User Guide discussion of
When more than one IDELAYCTRL is instantiated, the ISE 8.1 tools require LOC constraints on each IDELAYCTRL instantiation. A failure in MAP will occur if the LOC constraints are not provided. The FPGA Editor tool can be helpful to determine IDELAYCTRL LOC coordinates for the user's pinout. The syntax for the ucf-file LOC constraints is shown in the example below where the instance name in the OPB PCI Bridge for each IDELAYCTRL is XPCI_IDC0 to XPCI_IDCN where N is the C_NUM_IDELAYCTRL-1. The user need only include an LOC entry for each instance used in the system design and not for all possible six IDELAY controllers. For each entry, include the LOC coordinates for the part and pinout in the design. The example below is for a design that uses 2 IDELAYCTRL primitives.
This approach allows users to use the constraint LOC coordinates directly from the LogiCORE v3.0 core ucf-generator. Note that the ucf-file generator prescribes I/O pin layout that only uses two IDELAYCTRL primitives. The example below is for a system with two IDELAYCTRL primitives with example only coordinates. Depending on the user’s pinout, more IDELAYCTRLs might be needed.
INST *XPCI_IDC0 LOC=IDELAYCTRL_X2Y5; INST *XPCI_IDC1 LOC=IDELAYCTRL_X2Y6;
An optional method for setting of LOC constraints is to use the C_IDELAYCTRL_LOC parameter. This parameter when properly set will generate constraints in the bridge core ucf-file that is combined with the opb_pci bridge ngc-file during normal EDK tool flow. Note that if the LOC constraints are set in the system top-level ucf-file, then this parameter is has no effect for either case of it being properly set or set to default (i.e., NOT_SET). This is because the system top-level ucf-file overrides all core level ucf constraints. However, if it is not set, then a warning that it is not set is asserted early in the EDK tool flow for the tool options, generate netlist, generate bitstream, and other tool options that would invoke synthesis of the opb_pci bridge. If the system top-level ucf-file does include the LOC constraints, then this warning can be ignored. With EDK 8.1 tools, MAP will fail if the LOC coordinates are not provided by at least one of the methods. An example of the syntax for the C_IDELAYCTRL_LOC parameter is shown below.

The parameter C_IDELAYCTRL_LOC has the syntax of IDELAYCTRL_XNYM where N and M are coordinates and multiple entries are concatenated by "-" (i.e., dash). The order of entries correspond to IDELAYCNTRL instance names XPCI_IDC0, XPCI_IDC1, ... up to the maximum index of IDELAY controller instances in the user’s board design. The maximum index is C_NUM_IDELAYCTRL-1. To use the parameter to set the LOC constraint in the core level ucf-file for the above example, the parameter should be set in the MHS-file as shown below.
PARAMETER C_IDELAYCTRL_LOC="IDELAYCTRL_X2Y5-IDELAYCTRL_X2Y6"
The quotes are optional. The actual number of IDELAYCTRL primitives and corresponding LOC constraints depends on the user’s PCI pinout and part used.
Other constraints that are required include the IOBDELAY_TYPE, IOBDELAY_VALUE and IOB. These parameters are set in the normal EDK tool flow, but can be included in the system top-level ucf-file. For alternative tool flows, the setting are shown below. The settings shown below are settings at the time this document was written. The LogiCORE v3 PCI core Implementation Guide and v3.0 core ucf generator tool should be checked for updated values. IOSTANDARD must be explicitly defined in the ucf-file with the BYPASS constraint for ISE 8.1 tools; this can change in with future versions of the tools.

Some of the Virtex-4 constraints are implemented automatically in the EDK tool flow with any tool option that invokes bridge synthesis. As described earlier, tcl-scripts generate the ucf-file constraints and place them in a file in the OPB PCI Bridge directory of the project implementation directory. The ucf-file constraints are then included in the ngc-file generated in the EDK tool flow. The user can check

the ucf-file in the implementation directory of the bridge directory to verify that the constraints are included. Alternatively, the user can include all constraints in the top-level ucf-file. When the constraints are included in both the top-level ucf-file and the bridge ngc-file (via the bridge directory ucf-file), then the top-level ucf-file overrides any conflicting constraints in the bridge ngc-file.

Device Utilization and Performance Benchmarks

Because the PLB PCI Bridge is a module that will be used with other design pieces in the FPGA, the utilization and timing numbers reported in this section are just estimates. As the PLB PCI Bridge is combined with other pieces of the FPGA design, the utilization of FPGA resources and timing of the PLB PCI Bridge design will vary from the results reported here.
In order to analyze the PLB PCI Bridge timing within the FPGA, a design was created that instantiated the PLB PCI bridge with the parameters set as outlined in device; for Virtex-4 devices and an additional GCLK is required for the RCLK 200 MHz signal.
