Driver Parameter Description
pci-burstsize
The PCI-X bus supports multiple data lengths (burst
size). Use the following values when adjusting this
parameter.
pci-burstsize = 0;
pci-burstsize = 512;
pci-burstsize = 1024;
pci-burstsize = 2048;
Setting pci-burstsize to 0 will result in using the
system default burst size. Some systems do not
support burst sizes greater than 512 bytes. Setting
the burst size to more than 512 bytes on these
systems may result in problems such as PCI bus
hangs or data corruption.
*The AMD-8131 HyperTransport PCI-X chipset is
known to have issues on bus segments running at
133Mhz with large burst sizes and multiple split
transactions. It is recommended that the following
values be used for the PCI burst size and PCI split
transactions:
PCI Burst Size PCI Split Transactions
512 3
1024 2
2048 1
For additional information, please refer to the AMD-
8131 HyperTransport PCI-X Tunnel Revision Guide:
26310 Rev 3.08 August 2004, section 56.
pci-split-transaction-cnt
*see pci-burstsize for
important information regarding the
modification of this parameter.
The PCI-X bus supports multiple simultaneous data
transactions.
pci-split-transaction-cnt = 0;
pci-split-transaction-cnt = 1;
pci-split-transaction-cnt = 2;
pci-split-transaction-cnt = 3;
pci-split-transaction-cnt = 4;
pci-split-transaction-cnt = 8;
pci-split-transaction-cnt = 12;
pci-split-transaction-cnt = 16;
pci-split-transaction-cnt = 32;
Other values will generate a warning and the number
of split transactions will not be modified.
Setting pci-split-transaction-cnt to 0 will
result in using the system default burst size.
