BIOS Architecture 学习笔记05 Transaction flows and address decoding part 2

8个Core

System Agent负责给8个core解码，并且决定系统该如何操作。

BIOS Code就是为了定义System Agent的逻辑。

MMIO-LOW & MMIO-HIGH： Belong to IO subsystem.

Each PCIe RootPort have it`s own BAR(Base Address Register)

If process not claimed by Root Port, then will go to Subhabit decoding(link to South Bridge Chip PCH).

• SPI: BIOS Flash
• SATA
• LAN
• USB
• LPC

SMB: map to PCIe
