GLD_MSR_ERROR Bit Descriptions
Bit
Name
Description
63:38
RSVD
Reserved. Set to 0.
37
CWD_CHECK_ERR
Control Word Check Error. Reading a 1 indicates that an invalid control word was
read from the Display FIFO, which is indicative of a FIFO underrun. Writing a 1 to this
bit clears it.
36
SYNCBUF_ERR
Synchronizer Buffer Error. Reading a 1 indicates that the display pipe attempted to
read the synchronizer buffer while it was invalid. This is indicative of a synchronizer
buffer underrun. Writing a 1 to this bit clears it.
35
DFIFO_ERR
Display FIFO Underrun Error. Reading a 1 indicates that the asynchronous error
signal is being driven because the display FIFO has “run dry”. This implies that at
least one frame of the display was corrupted. Writing a 1 to this bit clears it; writing a
0 has no effect.
34
SMI_ERR
Uncleared SMI Error. Reading a 1 indicates that the asynchronous error signal is
being driven because a second SMI occurred while the first SMI went unserviced.
33
ADDR_ERR
Unexpected Address Error. Reading a 1 indicates that the exception flag was set
because the DC received a GLIU0 transaction request.
32
TYPE_ERR
Unexpected Type Error. Reading a 1 indicates that an asynchronous error has
occurred because the DC received a GLIU0 transaction with an undefined or unex-
pected type.
31:6
RSVD
Reserved. Set to 0.
5
CWD_CHECK_MSK
Control Word Check Error Mask. When set to 1, disables generation of the asyn-
chronous error signal when an invalid control word is read from the data FIFO.
4
SYNCBUF_MSK
Synchronizer Buffer Error Mask. When set to 1, disables generation of the asyn-
chronous error signal when invalid data is read from the synchronizer buffer.
3
DFIFO_ERR_MASK
Display FIFO Underrun Error Mask. When set to 1, disables generation of the asyn-
chronous error signal when at least one frame of the display was corrupted.
2
SMI_ERR_MASK
Uncleared SMI Error Mask. When set to 1, disables generation of the asynchronous
error signal when a second SMI occurred while the first SMI went unserviced.
1
ADDR_ERR_MASK
Unexpected Address Error Mask. When set to 1, disables generation of an excep-
tion flag when the DC receives a GLIU0 request.
0
TYPE_ERR_MASK
Unexpected Type Error Mask. When set to 1, disables generation of the asynchro-
nous error signal when the DC received a GLIU0 transaction with an undefined or
unexpected type.
