The link power management (LPM) state machine manages active state power by monitoring the PCI

Express transaction activity. If no transactions are pending and the transmitter has been idle for at least

the minimum time required by the PCI Express Specification, then the LPM state machine transitions the

link to either the L0s or L1 state. By reading the bridge’s L0s and L1 exit latency in the link capabilities

power savings. The ASLPMC field in the link control register provides an L0s only option, L1 only option,

or both L0s and L1 option.

3.16 Auto Pre-Fetch Agent

The auto pre-fetch agent is an internal logic module that will generate speculative read requests on behalf

of a PCI master to improve upstream memory read performance.

The auto pre-fetch agent will generate a read thread on the PCI-express bus when it receives an

upstream prefetchable memory read request on the PCI bus. A read thread is a sequence of one or more

read requests with contiguous read addresses. The first read of thread will be started by a master on the

PCI bus requesting a read that is forwarded to the root complex by the bridge. Each subsequent read in

the thread will be initiated by the auto pre-fetch agent. Each subsequent read will use the address that

immediately follows the last address of data in the previous read of the thread. Each read request in the

thread will be assigned to an upstream request processor. The pre-fetch agent can issue reads for two

threads at one time, alternating between the threads.
