AHCI
AHCI level decode
displays AHCI transactions. PETracer decodes the storage
commands starting from lower Transaction Layer decodes. In the case of AHCI, it will
decode first the Packet Level, then the Link Transaction level, then the Split Transaction
Level and finally the AHCI decode level.
Note:
The trace must contain the device enumeration sequence so the decoding picks up the
associated base addresses and AHCI transactions can be properly decoded. If the enumeration
sequence is not available the base addresses must be manually entered in the PCIe SSD
Configuration dialog from the Tools menu.
6.13.7
ATA
ATA level decode
displays ATA transactions. PETracer decodes the storage commands
starting from lower Transaction Layer decodes. In the case of ATA, it will decode first the
Packet Level, then the Link Transaction level, then the Split Transaction Level, then AHCI
level and finally the ATA decode level.
Note:
The trace must contain the device enumeration sequence so the decoding picks up the
associated base addresses and
ATA
transactions can be properly decoded. If the enumeration
sequence is not available the base addresses must be manually entered in the PCIe SSD
Configuration dialog from the Tools menu.
