SRIO Functional Description
There are no Endian translation requirements for accessing the local MMR space. Regardless of the
device memory Endian configuration, all configuration bus accesses are performed on 32-bit values at a
fixed address position. The bit positions in the 32-bit word are defined by this specification. This means
that a memory image which will be copied to a MMR is identical between Little Endian and Big Endian
configurations. Configuration bus reads are performed in the same manner. Figure 30 illustrates the
concept. The desired operation is to locally update a serial RapidIO MMR (offset 1000h) with a value of
A0A1A2A3h, using the configuration bus.
Figure 30. Configuration Bus Example
When accessing RapidIO defined MMR within an external device, RapidIO allows 4 bytes, 8 bytes, or any
multiple of a double-word access (up to 64 bytes) for type 8 (maintenance) packets. The peripheral only
supports 4-byte accesses as the target, but can generate all sizes of request packets. RapidIO is defined
as Big Endian only, and has double-word aligned Big Endian packet payloads.
The DMA, however, supports byte wide accesses. The peripheral performs Endian conversion on the
payload if Little Endian is used on the device. This conversion is not only applicable for type 8 packets, but
is also relevant for all outgoing payloads of NWRITE, NWRITE_R, SWRITE, NREAD, and message
packets. This means that the memory image is different between Little Endian and Big Endian
configurations, as shown in Figure 31 .
