Register Terminology
Software in the context of this register terminology refers to modifications made by PCIe root configura-
tion writes, writes to registers made through the slave SMBus interface, or serial EEPROM register initial-
ization. See Table 2.
Type
Abbreviation
Description
Hardware Initialized
HWINIT
Register bits are initialized by firmware or hardware mechanisms
such as pin strapping or serial EEPROM. (System firmware hard-
ware initialization is only allowed for system integrated devices.)
Bits are read-only after initialization and can only be reset (for
write-once by firmware) with reset.
Read Only and Clear
RC
Software can read the register/bits with this attribute. Reading the
value will automatically cause the register/bit to be reset to zero.
Writing to a RC location has no effect.
Read Clear and Write
RCW
Software can read the register/bits with this attribute. Reading the
value will automatically cause the register/bits to be reset to zero.
Writes cause the register/bits to be modified.
Reserved
Reserved
The value read from a reserved register/bit is undefined. Thus,
software must deal correctly with fields that are reserved. On
reads, software must use appropriate masks to extract the defined
bits and not rely on reserved bits being any particular value. On
writes, software must ensure that the values of reserved bit posi-
tions are preserved. That is, the values of reserved bit positions
must first be read, merged with the new values for other bit posi-
tions and then written back.
Read Only
RO
Software can only read registers/bits with this attribute. Contents
are hardwired. Writing to a RO location has no effect.
Read Only and set by
Hardware
ROS
Software can only read registers/bits with this attribute. Contents
are set by hardware and may change. Writing to a ROS location
has no effect.
Read and Write
RW
Software can both read and write bits with this attribute.
