0 Parity Error - CMND
Parity Error Detected on SAC-MAC CMND Bus. Look in CMND_FERR Register to
isolate. When the error is detected, the MAC will complete those operations which have
a RAS pending, and stop. No new RAS cycles will be issued after the parity error and that
card is effectively dead.
2.4.3.2 CMND_FERR: Command on First Error
Bus CBN, Device Number: 05h,06h Function Number: 00h,01h
Address Offset: 9Ch Size: 24 bits
Default Value: 0000h Attribute: Read
This register records and latches the data on the SAC-MAC Command Bus for the first error
detected.

2.4.4 PXB
2.4.4.1 ERRSTS: Error Status Register
Address Offset: 44h Size: 8 bits
Default Value: 00h Attribute: Read/Write Clear, Sticky
This register records error conditions detected from the PCI bus (not already covered in PCISTS),
from the Expander Bus, and performance monitoring events.
The register is sticky through reset; that is, the contents of the register remain unchanged during
and following the assertion of X(0,1)RST#. This allows system recovery software invoked
following a forced reset to examine the flags to determine the cause of an error. Once set, the flags
remain set until explicitly cleared by software or a power-good reset.
Bits
Description
7 reserved(0).
6 PERR# observed on PCI Bus
This flag is set if the PXB detects the PERR# input asserted, and the PXB was not the
asserting agent. This flag may be configured to assert SERR# or PERR# in the ERRCMD
register. This bit remains set until explicitly cleared by software writing a 1 to this bit.
5 Parity Error on Received PCI Data
This flag is set if the PXB detects a parity error on data being read from the PCI bus. This
flag may be configured to assert SERR# or PERR# in the ERRCMD register. This bit
remains set until explicitly cleared by software writing a 1 to this bit.
4 Parity Error on PCI Address
This flag is set if the PXB detects a parity error on the PCI address. This flag may be
configured to assert SERR# in the ERRCMD register. This bit remains set until explicitly
cleared by software writing a 1 to this bit.
