Switch Fabric CSR Reads
To perform a read of an individual switch fabric register, the read cycle must be initiated by performing
a single write to the Switch Fabric CSR Interface Command Register (SWITCH_CSR_CMD) with
CSR_BUSY (bit 31) set, the CSR_ADDRESS field (bits 15:0) set to the desired register address, the
R_nW (bit 30) set, and the AUTO_INC and AUTO_DEC fields cleared. Valid data is available for
reading when the CSR_BUSY bit is cleared, indicating that the data can be read from the Switch Fabric
CSR Interface Data Register (SWITCH_CSR_DATA).
A second read method may be used which utilizes the auto increment/decrement function of the Switch
Fabric CSR Interface Command Register (SWITCH_CSR_CMD) for reading sequential register
addresses. When using this method, the Switch Fabric CSR Interface Command Register
(SWITCH_CSR_CMD) must first be written with the auto increment(AUTO_INC) or auto
decrement(AUTO_DEC) bit set, the CSR_ADDRESS field written with the desired register address,
and the R_nW bit set. The completion of a read cycle is indicated by the clearing of the CSR_BUSY
bit, at which time the data can be read from the Switch Fabric CSR Interface Data Register
(SWITCH_CSR_DATA). When the data is read, the address in the Switch Fabric CSR Interface
Command Register (SWITCH_CSR_CMD) is incremented or decremented accordingly, and another
read cycle is started automatically. The user should clear the AUTO_INC and AUTO_DEC bits before
reading the last data to avoid an unintended read cycle.
Figure 6.2 illustrates the process required to perform a switch fabric CSR read.
