SATA Controller Registers (D31:F2)
Bit
Device Detection Initialization (DET) — R/W. Controls the PCH's device detection
and interface initialization.
3:0
All other values reserved.
When this field is written to a 1h, the PCH initiates COMRESET and starts the
initialization process. When the initialization is complete, this field shall remain 1h until
set to another value by software.
This field may only be changed to 1h or 4h when PxCMD.ST is 0. Changing this field
while the PCH is running results in undefined behavior.
NOTE: It is permissible to implement any of the Serial ATA defined behaviors for
14.4.2.12 PxSERR—Port [5:0] Serial ATA Error Register (D31:F2)
Address Offset: Port 0: ABAR + 130h
Default Value:
Bits 26:16 of this register contain diagnostic error information for use by diagnostic
software in validating correct operation or isolating failure modes. Bits 11:0 contain
error information used by host software in determining the appropriate response to the
error condition. If one or more of bits 11:8 of this register are set, the controller will
stop the current transfer.
Bit
31:27 Reserved
Exchanged (X) — R/WC. When set to 1, this bit indicates that a change in device
presence has been detected since the last time this bit was cleared. This bit shall
26
always be set to 1 anytime a COMINIT signal is received. This bit is reflected in the
P0IS.PCS bit.
Unrecognized FIS Type (F) — R/WC. Indicates that one or more FISs were received
25
by the Transport layer with good CRC, but had a type field that was not recognized.
Transport state transition error (T) — R/WC. Indicates that an error has occurred in
24 the transition from one state to another within the Transport layer since the last time
this bit was cleared.
Transport state transition error (T) — R/WC. Indicates that an error has occurred in
23 the transition from one state to another within the Transport layer since the last time
this bit was cleared.
Handshake (H) — R/WC. Indicates that one or more R_ERR handshake response was
received in response to frame transmission. Such errors may be the result of a CRC
22
error detected by the recipient, a disparity or 8b/10b decoding error, or other error
condition leading to a negative handshake on a transmitted frame.

Value Description
0h No device detection or initialization action requested
Perform interface communication initialization sequence to
establish communication. This is functionally equivalent to a hard
1h
reset and results in the interface being reset and communications
re-initialized
4h Disable the Serial ATA interface and put Phy in offline mode
transmission of COMRESET when DET=1h.
