TOM–Top of Memory Register (Function 0)
Address Offset:
Default Value:
Attribute:
This register enables the forwarding of DMA memory cycles to the PCI Bus and sets the top of
main memory accessible by DMA devices. In addition, this register controls the forwarding of
DMA accesses to the lower firmware region (E0000–EFFFFh) and the 512–640 KByte main
memory region (80000–9FFFFh).

Serial IRQ Enable. 1=Serial Interrupts are enabled. 0=Serial Interrupts disabled.
Serial IRQ Mode Select. When this bit is a "1", the serial IRQ machine will be in continuous mode.
When this bit is a "0", the serial IRQ machine will be in quiet mode. When setting the SIRQEN bit,
this bit must also be written as a one so that the first action of the serial IRQ machine will be a start
frame.
Serial IRQ Frame Size. These bits select the frame size used by the Serial IRQ logic. The default
is 0100b indicating a frame size of 21 (17+4). These bits are readable and writeable, however the
only programmed value supported by the IFB is 0100b. All other frame sizes are unsupported.
Start Frame Pulse Width. These bits define the Start Frame pulse width generated by the Serial
Interrupt control logic.

Top Of Memory. The top of memory can be assigned in 1 Mbyte increments from 1–16 Mbytes.
DMA accesses within this region, and not in the memory hole region, are forwarded to PCI.

Note that the IFB only supports a main memory hole at the top of 16 Mbytes. Thus, If a 1 Mbyte
memory hole is created for the Host-to-PCI Bridge DRAM controller between 15 and 16 Mbytes, the
IFB Top Of Memory should be set at 15 Mbytes.
