PIO Buffer Overflow Error (PIO_OVFL)
Step 5
Enter the value of the CAP_CTRL register bits<19:16> (Actual_PEND_NUM) in the
following formula. Compare the results as indicated in Table 4-7 to determine the
most likely cause of the error. When an IOD is implicated in the analysis of the
error, replace the one that capturered the error in its CAP Error Register.
Expected_PEND_NUM = 12 - ((2 * (X - 1)) + Y)
Where: X = Number of PCIs
Y = Number of CPUs
