6.2.3.5. MSI-X Capabilities

Table 91.  PF/VF MSI-X Capabilities
Parameter Value Default Value Description
Enable MSI-X (Endpoint only) True/False False

Enables the MSI-X functionality.

MSI-X Table Size 0x0 - 0x7FF (only values of powers of two minus 1 are valid) 0

System software reads this field to determine the MSI-X table size <n>, which is encoded as <n-1>.

For example, a returned value of 2047 indicates a table size of 2048. This field is read-only.

Address offset: 0x068[26:16]

MSI-X Table Offset 0x0 - 0x1FFFFFFF 0 Points to the base of the MSI-X table. The lower 3 bits of the table BAR indicator (BIR) are set to zero by software to form a 64-bit qword-aligned offset. This field is read-only after being programmed.
Table BAR indicator 0x0 - 0x5 0 Specifies which one of a function's BARs, located beginning at 0x10 in Configuration Space, is used to map the MSI-X table into memory space. This field is read-only after being programmed.
Pending bit array (PBA) offset 0x0 - 0x1FFFFFFF 0 Used as an offset from the address contained in one of the function's Base Address registers to point to the base of the MSI-X PBA. The lower 3 bits of the PBA BIR are set to zero by software to form a 32-bit qword-aligned offset. This field is read-only after being programmed.
PBA BAR indicator 0x0 - 0x5 0 Specifies the function's Base Address register, located beginning at 0x10 in Configuration Space, that maps the MSI-X PBA into memory space. This field is read-only after being programmed.
VF Table size 0x0 - 0x7FF (only values of powers of two minus 1 are valid) 0 Sets the number of entries in the MSI-X table for VFs. MSI-X cannot be disabled for VFs. Set to 1 to save resources.
