4.3.3.3.1. Implementing MSI-X Interrupts
Section 6.8.2 of the PCI Local Bus Specification describes the MSI-X capability and table structures. The MSI-X capability structure points to the MSI-X Table structure and MSI-X Pending Bit Array (PBA) registers. The BIOS sets up the starting address offsets and BAR associated with the pointer to the starting address of the MSI-X Table and PBA registers.
MSI-X Interrupt Components
- Host software sets up the MSI-X interrupts in the Application Layer by completing the following steps:
- Host software reads the Message Control register at 0x050 register to determine the MSI-X Table size. The number of table entries is the <value read> + 1.
The maximum table size is 2048 entries. Each 16-byte entry is divided in 4 fields as shown in the figure below. The MSI-X table can be accessed on any BAR configured. The base address of the MSI-X table must be aligned to a 4 KB boundary.
- The host sets up the MSI-X table. It programs MSI-X address, data, and masks bits for each entry as shown in the figure below.
Figure 33. Format of MSI-X Table
- The host calculates the address of the <n th > entry using the following formula:
nth_address = base address[BAR] + 16<n>
- Host software reads the Message Control register at 0x050 register to determine the MSI-X Table size. The number of table entries is the <value read> + 1.
- When Application Layer has an interrupt, it drives an interrupt request to the IRQ Source module.
- The IRQ Source sets appropriate bit in the MSI-X PBA table.
The PBA can use qword or dword accesses. For qword accesses, the IRQ Source calculates the address of the <m th > bit using the following formulas:
qword address = <PBA base addr> + 8(floor(<m>/64)) qword bit = <m> mod 64
Figure 34. MSI-X PBA Table - The IRQ Processor reads the entry in the MSI-X table.
- If the interrupt is masked by the Vector_Control field of the MSI-X table, the interrupt remains in the pending state.
- If the interrupt is not masked, IRQ Processor sends Memory Write Request to the TX slave interface. It uses the address and data from the MSI-X table. If Message Upper Address = 0, the IRQ Processor creates a three-dword header. If the Message Upper Address > 0, it creates a 4-dword header.
- The host interrupt service routine detects the TLP as an interrupt and services it.
