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 Regards Wojciech Cynk ----- Original Message ----- From: xxxkryzxxx@web.de> To: pci@opencores.org> Sent: Wednesday, December 15, 2004 1:46 PM Subject: [pci] Configuration Space Read in burst mode

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.
