Memory Write induces master abort

When PI7C8150A receives a target abort or a master abort in response to the delayed

locked read transaction, this status is passed back to the initiator, and no locks are

established on either the target or the initiator bus. PI7C8150A resumes forwarding

unlocked transactions in both directions.

7.2.2

LOCKED TRANSACTION IN UPSTREAM DIRECTION

PI7C8150A ignores upstream lock and transactions. PI7C8150A will pass these

transactions as normal transactions without lock established.

7.3

ENDING EXCLUSIVE ACCESS

After the lock has been acquired on both initiator and target buses, PI7C8150A must

maintain the lock on the target bus for any subsequent locked transactions until the initiator

relinquishes the lock.

The only time a target-retry causes the lock to be relinquished is on the first transaction of a

locked sequence. On subsequent transactions in the sequence,

the target retry has no effect on the status of the lock signal.

An established target lock is maintained until the initiator relinquishes the lock.

PI7C8150A does not know whether the current transaction is the last one in a sequence of

locked transactions until the initiator de-asserts the LOCK_L signal at

end of the transaction.

When the last locked transaction is a delayed transaction, PI7C8150A has already

completed the transaction on the target bus. In this example, as soon as PI7C8150A detects

that the initiator has relinquished the LOCK_L signal by sampling it in the de-asserted state

while FRAME_L is de-asserted, PI7C8150A de-asserts the LOCK_L signal on the target

bus as soon as possible. Because of this behavior, LOCK_L may not be de-asserted until

several cycles after the last locked transaction has been completed on the target bus. As

soon as PI7C8150A has de-asserted LOCK_L to indicate the end of a sequence of locked

transactions, it resumes forwarding unlocked transactions.

When the last locked transaction is a posted write transaction, PI7C8150A de-asserts

LOCK_L on the target bus at the end of the transaction because the lock was relinquished

at the end of the write transaction on the initiator bus.

When PI7C8150A receives a target abort or a master abort in response to a locked delayed

transaction, PI7C8150A returns a target abort or a master abort when the initiator repeats

the locked transaction. The initiator must then de-assert LOCK_L at the end of the

transaction. PI7C8150A sets the appropriate status bits, flagging the abnormal target

termination condition (see Section 3.8). Normal forwarding of unlocked posted and

delayed transactions is resumed.

When PI7C8150A receives a target abort or a master abort in response to a locked posted

write transaction, PI7C8150A cannot pass back that status to the initiator. PI7C8150A

asserts SERR_L on the initiator bus when a target abort or a master abort is received during
