PCI Interface Errors

Other PCI interface errors that are handled by the WXB are:

System Error Signaled

Set within the

FEPCI

register when the WXB sees an SERR# asserted by another PCI agent.

This is not set when the WXB drives

SERR#

.

Discard Timer Expiration

Set when the 2

15

timer expires. The timer starts approximately when the data for a delayed

read is requested by the WXB. If the card doesn’t re-access the data in 2

15

PCI clocks, then an

error is flagged.
