CoS Mapping Registers

The DDRSS contains a series of muxes to map VBUSM.C priorities to AXI priorities. The registers controlling the mappings are the following:

  • Route ID filters:

    • emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_R1_MAT_REG: allows for filtering and routing of route IDs to range 1 mappings

    • emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_R2_MAT_REG: allows for filtering and routing of route IDs to range 2 mappings

    • emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_R3_MAT_REG: allows for filtering and routing of route IDs to range 3 mappings

  • Priority mappings:

    • LPT (low priority thread):

      • emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_LPT_DEF_PRI_MAP_REG: default VBUSM.C to AXI priority mappings

      • emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_LPT_R1_PRI_MAP_REG: range 1 VBUSM.C to AXI priority mappings

      • emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_LPT_R2_PRI_MAP_REG: range 2 VBUSM.C to AXI priority mappings

      • emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_LPT_R3_PRI_MAP_REG: range 3 VBUSM.C to AXI priority mappings

    • HPT (high priority thread):

      • emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_HPT_DEF_PRI_MAP_REG: default VBUSM.C to AXI priority mappings

      • emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_HPT_R1_PRI_MAP_REG: range 1 VBUSM.C to AXI priority mappings

      • emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_HPT_R2_PRI_MAP_REG: range 2 VBUSM.C to AXI priority mappings

      • emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_HPT_R3_PRI_MAP_REG: range 3 VBUSM.C to AXI priority mappings

Note: The exact register addresses and fields can be found within the TDA4VH TRM

Take a hypothetical LPT transaction. If its route ID falls within a filter, say range 1, it will have its priority mapped using the emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_LPT_R1_PRI_MAP_REG mappings. If it doesn't fall within any filter, it will have its priority mapped using the emif_ew_sscfg_V2A_LPT_DEF_PRI_MAP_REG register. This muxing is represented in Figure 2-1.
