Figure 9-10: Avalon-MM-to-PCI Express Address Translation
The following figure depicts the Avalon-MM-to-PCI Express address translation process. In this figure
the variables represent the following paramers:
• N—the number of pass-through bits.
• M—the number of Avalon-MM address bits.
• P—the number of PCIe address bits.
• Q—the number of translation table entries.
•
Sp[1:0]
—the space indication for each entry.

Completer Only Single Dword Endpoint
The completer only single dword endpoint is intended for applications that use the PCI Express protocol
to perform simple read and write register accesses from a host CPU. The completer only single dword
endpoint is a hard IP implementation available for Qsys systems, and includes an Avalon-MM interface to
the Application Layer. The Avalon-MM interface connection in this variation is 32 bits wide. This
endpoint is not pipelined; at any time a single request can be outstanding.
The completer-only single dword endpoint supports the following requests:
• Read and write requests of a single dword (32 bits) from the Root Complex
• Completion with Completer Abort status generation for other types of non-posted requests
• INTX or MSI support with one Avalon-MM interrupt source
