Data Alignment and Timing for the 64-Bit Avalon-ST TX Interface
Figure 7–17 illustrates the mapping between Avalon-ST TX packets and PCI Express
TLPs for 3 dword header TLPs with non-qword aligned addresses with a 64-bit bus.
(
Figure 7–3 on page 7–5 illustrates the storage of non-qword aligned data.)
Non-qword aligned addresses occur when address[2] is set. When address[2] is set,
tx_st_data[63:32] contains Data0 and tx_st_data[31:0] contains dword header2 .
Figure 7–18 illustrates the mapping between Avalon-ST TX packets and PCI Express
TLPs for a four dword header with qword aligned addresses with a 64-bit bus.
ko_cpl_spc_data 12 O
component
specific
ko_cpl_spc_data is a static signal that reflects the total
number of 16 byte completion data units that can be stored
in the completion RX buffer. The total read data from all
outstanding MRd requests must be less than this value to
prevent RX FIFO overflow. The Application Layer can use
this signal to build circuitry to prevent RX buffer overflow
for completion data. Endpoints must advertise infinite
space for completion data; however, RX buffer space is
finite.
Note to Table 7–4 :
(1) To be Avalon-ST compliant, your application have a readyLatency of 1 or 2 cycles.
