5.4.5 Cbox Read Register (IPR) Description

The Cbox read register is read 6 bits at a time. Table 5–26 shows the ordering from LSB
to MSB.

Table 5–26 Cbox Read IPR Fields Description

Name

Description

C_SYNDROME_1[7:0]

If CMD is ChxToDirty, then C_SYNDROME_1 is X; otherwise, is syndrome for
upper QW in OW of victim that was scrubbed.

C_SYNDROME_0[7:0]

If CMD is ChxToDirty, then C_SYNDROME_0 is X; otherwise, is syndrome for
lower QW in OW of victim that was scrubbed.

C_STAT[4:0]

1 Error status as specified only when Cbox WRITE_ONCE chain bit

SKEWED_ FILL_MODE[0] is clear; otherwise, error status is
generic DOUBLE_BIT_ERROR (1XXXX).

C_STS[3:0]

If C_STAT equals xxx_MEM_ERR or xxx_BC_ERR, then C_STS contains the
status of the block as follows; otherwise, the value of C_STS is X:

C_ADDR[6:42]

Address of last reported ECC or parity error. If C_STAT value is
DSTREAM_DC_ERR, only bits 6:19 are valid. If C_STAT value is
DOUBLE_BIT_ERROR and SKEWED_FILL_MODE[0] is set, then C_ADDR
is X.
