IBM PowerPRS Q-64G
Preliminary
Packet Routing Switch
5. Register Descriptions
This section describes the registers, including field definitions, that provide the mechanism for
PowerPRS Q-64G configuration specification and status reporting.
Table 5-1 identifies each register and provides the page number where the corresponding description is
located. In the register descriptions, reserved bits and addresses are not implemented. Reserved bits return
‘0’ when read and ignore all write values.
Registers x‘01’ to x‘08’ are implemented in the serial host interface (SHI) logic and are reset by activating the
PowerOnResetIn# input signal. These registers can be accessed before the phase-locked loop (PLL) is
started or the flush is complete. All the bits in the remaining registers are set to ‘0’ during a flush, unless
otherwise specified.
Note: In the 256-Gbps internal speed expansion configuration, the ports in each of the four
PowerPRS Q-64Gs are paired as follows: physical ports 0 and 1 are paired to form logical port 0, physical
ports 2 and 3 are paired to form logical port 1, and so forth. Because all the registers report physical informa-
tion, information to or from logical queue L is reported using bit L × 2 for the registers in which a bit corre-
sponds to a port. For example, to enable the output queue for logical port 3, bit 6 in the Output Queue Enable
Register (page 124) must be set.
