Doorbell Module
The Doorbell module provides support for Type 10 packet format (
DOORBELL
class)
transactions, allowing users to send and receive short software-defined messages to
and from other processing elements connected to the RapidIO interface.
Figure 4–8 on page 4–23 shows how the Doorbell module is connected to the
Transport layer module. In a typical application the Doorbell module’s Avalon-MM
slave interface is connected to the system interconnect fabric, allowing an Avalon-MM
master to communicate with RapidIO devices by sending and receiving
DOORBELL
messages.
When you configure the RapidIO IP core, you can enable or disable the
DOORBELL
operation feature, depending on your application requirements. If you do not need
the
DOORBELL
feature, disabling it reduces device resource usage. If you enable the
feature, a 32–bit Avalon-MM slave port is created that allows the RapidIO MegaCore
to receive, generate, or both receive and generate RapidIO
DOORBELL
messages.
Doorbell Module Block Diagram
Figure 4–29 illustrates the Doorbell module. This module includes a 32–bit
Avalon-MM slave interface to the user interface. The Doorbell module contains the
following logic blocks:
Register and FIFO interface that allows an external Avalon-MM master to access
the Doorbell module’s internal registers and FIFO buffers.
Tx output FIFO that stores the outbound
DOORBELL
and
response
packets waiting
for transmission to the Transport layer module.
Acknowledge RAM that temporarily stores the transmitted
DOORBELL
packets
pending responses to the packets from the target RapidIO device.
Tx time-out logic that checks the expiration time for each outbound Tx
DOORBELL
packet that is sent.
Rx control that processes
DOORBELL
packets received from the Transport layer
module. Received packets include the following packet types:
Rx
DOORBELL
request.
Rx response
DONE
to a successfully transmitted
DOORBELL
packet.
Rx response
RETRY
to a transmitted
DOORBELL
message.
Rx response
ERROR
to a transmitted
DOORBELL
message.
Rx FIFO that stores the received
DOORBELL
messages until they are read by an
external Avalon-MM master device.
Tx FIFO that stores
DOORBELL
messages that are waiting to be transmitted.
Tx staging FIFO that stores
DOORBELL
messages until they can be passed to the Tx
FIFO. The staging FIFO is present only if you select Prevent doorbell messages
from passing write transactions in the RapidIO parameter editor. Arria 10
variations have a staging FIFO and prevent
DOORBELL
messages from passing write
transactions.
Tx completion FIFO that stores the transmitted
DOORBELL
messages that have
received responses. This FIFO also stores timed out Tx
DOORBELL
requests.
