Register: 0x3A
Scratch Byte Register (SBR)
Read/Write
SBR
Scratch Byte Register
[7:0]
This is a general purpose register. Apart from CPU
access, only register Read/Write and Memory Moves into
this register alter its contents. The default value of this
register is zero. This register is called the DMA Watchdog
Timer on previous LSI53C8XX family products.
Register: 0x3B

CLSE
Cache Line Size Enable
7
Setting this bit enables the LSI53C1010R SCSI function
to sense and react to cache line boundaries set up by the
or PCI
register, whichever contains the smaller value. Clearing
this bit disables the cache line size logic.
PFF
Prefetch Flush
6
Setting this bit causes the prefetch unit to flush its
contents. This bit clears after the flush is complete.
PFEN
Prefetch Enable
5
Setting this bit enables an 8-Dword SCRIPTS instruction
prefetch unit. The prefetch unit, when enabled, fetches
8 Dwords of instructions and instruction operands in
bursts of 4 or 8 Dwords. Prefetching instructions allows
the LSI53C1010R SCSI function to make more efficient
use of the system PCI bus, thus improving overall system
performance. A flush occurs whenever the PFF bit is set,
