Configuration Space Read in burst mode

Hello @ all.
I'm working on designing a pci-master with an fpga. Here's my question: Is it possible to read out a device's Configuration Space (with command Ah on CBE) in burst mode, e.g. presenting the address 0h once and then have the target delivered the whole CS header resp. Space? I didn't find a explicit no anywhere in literature. On the timing diagrams i saw there was always FRAME# deasserted after the first address phase, indicating a non-burst mode. CS readout works fine in non-burst mode with the fpga. Thanks for Your answers. Chris |

Accesing a Configuration space in burst mode is not allowed in PCI
specification

You will find some information about Configuration Access in burst mode
in the PCI Local Bus Spec (2.3), 3.2.2.3.4. Selection of a Device's Configuration Space: "... The configuration commands, like other commands, allow data to be accessed using ... multiple data phases in a burst. The target ... is not required to handle a configuration transaction that consists of multiple data phases. ..." Due to the nature of generating config cycles in PC-AT based systems(CF8/CFC), you will unlikely find config bursts initiated by the CPU in such systems. Hope that helps. Gerd Ternathe
