Description
D[63:0]# (Data) are the data signals. These signals provide a 64-bit data path
between the processor FSB agents, and must connect the appropriate pins/
lands on all such agents. The data driver asserts DRDY# to indicate a valid data
transfer.
D[63:0]# are quad-pumped signals and will, thus, be driven four times in a
common clock period. D[63:0]# are latched off the falling edge of both
DSTBP[3:0]# and DSTBN[3:0]#. Each group of 16 data signals correspond to a
pair of one DSTBP# and one DSTBN#. The following table shows the grouping
of data signals to data strobes and DBI#.

Furthermore, the DBI# signals determine the polarity of the data signals. Each
group of 16 data signals corresponds to one DBI# signal. When the DBI# signal
is active, the corresponding data group is inverted and therefore sampled active
high.
DBI[3:0]# (Data Bus Inversion) are source synchronous and indicate the
polarity of the D[63:0]# signals.The DBI[3:0]# signals are activated when the
data on the data bus is inverted. If more than half the data bits, within a 16-bit
group, would have been asserted electrically low, the bus agent may invert the
data bus signals for that particular sub-phase for that 16-bit group.

DBR# (Debug Reset) is used only in processor systems where no debug port is
implemented on the system board. DBR# is used by a debug port interposer so
DBR#
Output that an in-target probe can drive system reset. If a debug port is implemented in
the system, DBR# is a no connect in the system. DBR# is not a processor
signal.
DBSY# (Data Bus Busy) is asserted by the agent responsible for driving data on
Input/ the processor FSB to indicate that the data bus is in use. The data bus is
Output released after DBSY# is de-asserted. This signal must connect the appropriate
pins/lands on all processor FSB agents.
DBSY#
DEFER# is asserted by an agent to indicate that a transaction cannot be
guaranteed in-order completion. Assertion of DEFER# is normally the
responsibility of the addressed memory or input/output agent. This signal must
connect the appropriate pins/lands of all processor FSB agents.

DP[3:0]#
Input
DP[3:0]# (Data parity) provide parity protection for the D[63:0]# signals. They
are driven by the agent responsible for driving D[63:0]#, and must connect the
appropriate pins/lands of all processor FSB agents.
