MLIMIT1—Memory Limit Address (D1:F0)

PCI Device:

Address Offset:

22h

Default Value:

0000h

Access:

R/W

Size:

16 bits

This register controls the processor-to-PCI Express Graphics non-prefetchable memory access

routing based on the following formula:

MEMORY_BASE

≤ address ≤ MEMORY_LIMIT

The upper 12 bits of the register are read/write and correspond to the upper 12 address bits

A[31:20] of the 32-bit address. The bottom 4 bits of this register are read-only and return zeroes

when read. Configuration software must initialize this register. For the purpose of address decode,

address bits A[19:0] are assumed to be FFFFFh. Thus, the top of the defined memory address

range will be at the top of a 1-MB aligned memory block.

Note:

Memory range covered by MBASE and MLIMIT registers are used to map non-prefetchable PCI

Express Graphics address ranges (typically, where control/status memory-mapped I/O data

structures of the graphics controller will reside) and PMBASE and PMLIMIT are used to map

prefetchable address ranges (typically, graphics local memory). This segregation allows

application of USWC space attribute to be performed in a true plug-and-play manner to the

prefetchable address range for improved processor-PCI Express memory access performance.

Note:

Configuration software is responsible for programming all address range registers (prefetchable,

non-prefetchable) with the values that provide exclusive address ranges (i.e., prevent overlap with

each other and/or with the ranges covered with the main memory). There is no provision in the

(G)MCH hardware to enforce prevention of overlap and operations of the system in the case of

overlap are not guaranteed.
