6.1. Features of the System Manager

Software accesses the CSRs in the system manager to control and monitor various functions in other HPS modules that require external control signals. The system manager connects to these modules to perform the following functions:

  • Sends pause signals to pause the watchdog timers when the processors in the MPU subsystem are in debug mode
  • Selects the EMAC system interconnect master access options and other EMAC clock and interface options.
  • Selects the SD/MMC controller clock options and system interconnect master access options.
  • Selects the NAND flash controller bootstrap options and system interconnect master access option.
  • Selects USB controller system interconnect master access option.
  • Provides control over the DMA security settings when the HPS exits from reset.
  • Provides boot source information that can be read during the boot process.
  • Provides the capability to enable or disable an interface to the FPGA.
  • Provides combined ECC status and interrupts from other HPS modules with ECC-protected RAM.
  • Routes parity failure interrupts from the L1 caches to the Global Interrupt Controller.
  • Provides the capability to inject errors during testing in the MPU L2 ECC-protected RAM.
