This appendix describes the mapping of 21164 40-bit physical addresses to memory
and I/O space addresses. It also describes the translation of a 21164-initiated address
(addr_h<39:4>) into a PCI address (ad<63:0>) and the translation of a PCI-initiated
address into a physical memory address.
PCI addressing topics include dense and sparse address space and scatter-gather
address translation for DMA operations.

A.1 Address Map

The system address mapping operates with byte/word transactions enabled or dis-
abled. Byte/word operation is controlled by PYXIS_CTRL1<0> (IOA_BEN).
Table A–1 shows system address mapping operations when IOA_BEN equals 0
(byte/word operation disabled).
