User Guide
Table 8–33 describes the
Interrupt Status
register for Root Ports. Refer to Table 8–35
for the definition of the
Interrupt Status
register for Endpoints.
Table 8–34 describes fields of the Avalon
Interrupt Enable
register for Root Ports.
Refer to Table 8–36 for the definition of this register for Endpoints.
PCI Express to Avalon-MM Interrupt Status and Enable Registers for
Endpoints
The registers in this section contain status of various signals in the PCI Express
Avalon-MM bridge logic and allow Avalon interrupts to be asserted when enabled. A
processor local to the interconnect fabric that processes the Avalon-MM interrupts can
access these registers.
1 These registers must not be accessed by the PCI Express Avalon-MM bridge master
ports; however, there is nothing in the hardware that prevents PCI Express
Avalon-MM bridge master port from accessing these registers.
