LSI 53C875A Computer Hardware User Manual


 
SCSI Registers 4-57
WRIE Write and Invalidate Enable 0
This bit, when set, causes the issuing of Write and
Invalidate commands on the PCI bus whenever legal.
The Write and Invalidate Enable bit in the PCI
Configuration Command register must also be set in
order for the chip to generate Write and Invalidate
commands.
Registers:0x1C–0x1F
Temporary (TEMP)
Read/Write
TEMP Temporary [31:0]
This 32-bit register stores the Return instruction address
pointer from the Call instruction. The address pointer
stored in this register is loaded into the DMA SCRIPTS
Pointer (DSP) register when a Return instruction is
executed. This address points to the next instruction to
execute. Do not write to this register while the
LSI53C875A is executing SCRIPTS.
During any Memory-to-Memory Move operation, the
contents of this register are preserved. The power-up
value of this register is indeterminate.
Register: 0x20
DMA FIFO (DFIFO)
Read/Write
BO Byte Offset Counter [7:0]
These bits, along with bits [1:0] in the Chip Test Five
(CTEST5) register, indicate the amount of data
transferred between the SCSI core and the DMA core. It
is used to determine the number of bytes in the DMA
FIFO when an interrupt occurs. These bits are unstable
