Notes
The partition fundamental reset condition is considered to persist as long as the STATE field in the
SWPARTxCTL register remains in the fundamental reset state. No hardware-initiated hot reset is possible
in the partition (e.g., a link-down in the partition’s upstream port (if any) does not cause a hot reset). See
Table 3.1 for details on reset precedence.
Transitioning a partition from the fundamental reset state to the active state requires that the system
meet the requirements associated with a conventional reset outlined in Section 6.6.1 of the PCI Express
Base Specification.
Active
A partition in the active state is in the normal operating mode.
Partition State Change
The state of a partition may be modified at any time. Valid partition state transitions are shown in Figure
5.1. State transitions other than those shown in Figure 5.1 produce undefined results.
Figure 5.1 Allowable Partition State Transitions
Since a partition state change may take a significant amount of time to complete (see next section),
status bits are provided to indicate when the change has started and when it has completed.
–
The Switch Partition State Change Initiated (SCI) bit in the Switch Partition Status
(SWPARTxSTS) register is set when a state change begins.
–
The Switch Partition State Change Completed (SCC) bit in the Switch Port Status
(SWPORTxSTS) register is set when a state change completes.
Once a partition state change has been initiated, it must be allowed to complete before a new partition
state change is initiated on the same partition. Violating this rule produces undefined results. The setting of
the SCC bit indicates that all changes associated with the state change in the entire device have completed
(e.g., port operating mode changes).
Partition State Change Latency
Partition state changes typically complete within a few clock cycles, unless the following condition is
true:
–
When the partition state change causes a fundamental reset in the partition (i.e., partition state
set to fundamental reset), the latency to complete the state change is 250 microseconds.
This delay ensures that the ingress and egress buffers of ports associated with the partition are fully
drained before the partition state change completes.
In addition, when the partition state change has the side-effect of modifying the operating mode of one
or more ports (e.g., partition is placed in the disabled state), the partition state change completes after the
operating mode of the ports in the partition is changed. Refer to section Port Operating Mode Change on
page 5-13 for details on the latency port operating mode changes.
