Expansion ROM Translation Unit
The inbound ATU supports one address range (defined by a base/limit register pair)
used for the Expansion ROM. Refer to the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.3 for
details on Expansion ROM format and usage.
During a powerup sequence, initialization code from Expansion ROM is executed once
During a powerup sequence, initialization code from Expansion ROM is executed once
by the host processor to initialize the associated device. The code can be discarded
The inbound ATU supports an inbound Expansion ROM window which works like the
inbound translation window. A read from the expansion ROM windows is forwarded to
the internal bus. The address translation algorithm is the same as the inbound
translation; see
.
The Expansion ROM unit uses the ATU inbound transaction queue and the inbound read
data queue.
Expansion ROM writes are not supported and result in a Completer Abort.
Expansion ROM writes are not supported and result in a Completer Abort.
Note:
Both the Memory Space enable and Expansion ROM Base Address Enable bits must be
set to 1 before the ATU accepts accesses to its Expansion ROM.
