Disabled 64-bit prefetchable memory 32-bit non-prefetchable memory |
If you select 64-bit prefetchable memory, 2 contiguous BARs are combined to form a 64-bit prefetchable BAR; you must set the higher numbered BAR to Disabled. A non-prefetchable 64‑bit BAR is not supported because in a typical system, the maximum non-prefetchable memory window is 32 bits. Defining memory as prefetchable allows contiguous data to be fetched ahead. Prefetching memory is advantageous when the requestor may require more data from the same region than was originally requested. If you specify that a memory is prefetchable, it must have the following 2 attributes:
Note: BAR0 is not available if the internal descriptor controller is enabled.
