PCI Mode (PMODE):
 This bit determines the mode of operation of the PCI bus. This bit 
reflects the status of the current PCI bus mode and also allows the software to change the 
mode by writing to this bit. The power-up value of this register is written based upon 
.
0 = Conventional PCI
1 = PCI-X

PCI Frequency (PFREQ):
 This bit determines the frequency at which the PCI bus operates. 
. After the software determines the capabilities of the bus, it sets this 
value, and the PMODE bit (bit[14] of this register) to the desired frequency and resets the 
PCI bus. The values are encoded as follows:
Results are indeterminate when invalid combinations are written by the software.

Peer Memory Read Enable (PMRE):
 
0 = Normal operation. Peer memory reads are not allowed. All memory reads from a PCI 
bridge are sent to PCI Express* regardless of address.
1 = Peer memory reads from one PCI segment to another are supported.
