Description
Indicates whether the HBA supports Serial ATA native
command queuing. If set to '1', an HBA shall handle DMA
Setup FISes natively, and shall handle the auto-activate
optimization through that FIS. If cleared to '0', native
command queuing is not supported and software should not
issue any native command queuing commands.
Indicates whether the HBA can access 64-bit data structures.
When set to '1', the HBA shall make the 32-bit upper bits of
the port DMA Descriptor, the PRD Base, and each PRD entry
read/write. When cleared to '0', these are read-only and
treated as '0' by the HBA.
Description
When set by SW, this bit causes an internal reset of the HBA.
All state machines that relate to data transfers and queuing
shall return to an idle condition, and all ports shall be re-
initialized via COMRESET (if staggered spin-up is not
supported). If staggered spin-up is supported, then it is the
responsibility of software to spin-up each port after the reset
has completed.
When the HBA has performed the reset action, it shall reset
this bit to '0'. A software write of '0' shall have no effect. For
a description on which bits are reset when this bit is set.
This global bit enables interrupts from the HBA. When
cleared (reset default), all interrupt sources from all ports are
disabled. When set, interrupts are enabled.
Read Only
When set to '1' by hardware, indicates that the HBA
requested more than one MSI vector but has reverted to
using the first vector only. When this bit is cleared to '0', the
HBA has not reverted to single MSI mode (i.e. hardware is
already in single MSI mode, software has allocated the
number of messages requested, or hardware is sharing
interrupt vectors if MC.MME < MC.MMC).
The HBA may revert to single MSI mode when the number of
vectors allocated by the host is less than the number
requested. This bit shall only be set to '1' when the following
conditions hold:
•
MC.MSIE = '1' (MSI is enabled)
•
MC.MMC > 0 (multiple messages requested)
•
MC.MME > 0 (more than one message allocated)
•
MC.MME != MC.MMC (messages allocated not
equal to number requested)
When this bit is set to '1', single MSI mode operation is in use
and software is responsible for clearing bits in the IS register
to clear interrupts.
This bit shall be cleared to '0' by hardware when any of the
four conditions stated is false. This bit is also cleared to '0'
when MC.MSIE = '1' and MC.MME = 0h. In this case, the
hardware has been programmed to use single MSI mode,
and is not "reverting" to that mode.
