CONFIGURATION
Pentium Pro processor bus agents can also be configured with some additional software config-
uration options. These options can be changed by writing to a power-on configuration register
which all bus agents must implement. These options should be changed only after taking into
account synchronization between multiple Pentium Pro processor bus agents.
Pentium Pro processor bus agents have the following configuration options:
•
Output tristate {Hardware}
•
Execution of the processor’s built-in self-test (BIST) {Hardware}
•
Data bus error-checking policy: enabled or disabled {Software}
•
Response signal error-checking policy: parity disabled or parity enabled {Software}
•
AERR# driving policy: enabled or disabled {Software}
•
AERR# observation policy: enabled or disabled {Hardware}
•
BERR# driving policy for initiator bus errors: enabled or disabled {Software}
•
BERR# driving policy for target bus errors: enabled or disabled {Software}
•
BERR# driving policy for initiator internal errors: enabled or disabled {Software}
•
BERR# observation policy: enabled or disabled {Hardware}
•
BINIT# error-driving policy: enabled or disabled {Software}
•
BINIT# error-observation policy: enabled or disabled {Hardware}
•
In-order Queue depth:1 or 8 {Hardware}
•
Power-on reset vector: 1M-16 or 4G-16 {Hardware}
•
FRC mode: enabled or disabled {Hardware}
•
APIC cluster ID: 0, 1, 2, or 3 {Hardware}
•
APIC mode: enabled or disabled {Software}
•
Symmetric agent arbitration ID: 0, 1, 2, or 3 {Hardware}
•
Clock frequencies and ratios {Hardware}
9.1.1.
Output Tristate
The Pentium Pro processor tristates all of its outputs if the FLUSH# signal is sampled active on
the RESET# signal’s active-to-inactive transition. The only way to exit from Output Tristate
mode is with a new activation of RESET# with inactive FLUSH#.
