Description |
---|---|---|---|
Maximum payload size |
128 bytes 256 bytes |
128 bytes |
Specifies the maximum payload size supported. This parameter sets the read-only value of the max payload size supported field of the Device Capabilities register (0x084[2:0]). Address: 0x084. |
Completion timeout range |
ABCD BCD ABC AB B A None |
ABCD |
Indicates device function support for the optional completion timeout programmability mechanism. This mechanism allows the system software to modify the completion timeout value. This field is applicable only to Root Ports and Endpoints that issue requests on their own behalf. Completion timeouts are specified and enabled in the Device Control 2 register (0x0A8) of the PCI Express Capability Structure Version. For all other functions this field is reserved and must be hardwired to 0x0000b. Four time value ranges are defined:
Bits are set to show timeout value ranges supported. The function must implement a timeout value in the range 50 s to 50 ms. The following values specify the range:
All other values are reserved. Intel recommends that the completion timeout mechanism expire in no less than 10 ms. |
Implement completion timeout disable |
On/Off |
On |
For Endpoints using PCI Express version 2.1 or 3.0, this option must be On. The timeout range is selectable. When On, the core supports the completion timeout disable mechanism via the PCI Express Device Control Register 2. The Application Layer logic must implement the actual completion timeout mechanism for the required ranges. |
