4.2.4. Reset Handshaking

The reset manager participates in several reset handshaking protocols to ensure other modules are safely reset.

Before issuing a warm reset, the reset manager performs a handshake with several modules to allow them to prepare for a warm reset. The handshake logic ensures the following conditions:

  • Optionally the ETR master has no pending master transactions to the L3 interconnect
  • Optionally preserve SDRAM contents during warm reset by issuing self-refresh mode request
  • FPGA manager stops generating configuration clock
  • Warns the FPGA fabric of the forthcoming warm reset

Similarly, the handshake logic associated with ETR also occurs during the debug reset to ensure that the ETR master has no pending master transactions to the L3 interconnect before the debug reset is issued. This action ensures that when ETR undergoes a debug reset, the reset has no adverse effects on the system domain portion of the ETR.
