The PCI Exclusive Lock Cycle Diagram (Figure 34) illustrates the case when the current initiator

locks the PCI bus. The FREEDM-8 will never initiate an lock, but will behave appropriately when

acting as a target.

During clock 1, the present initiator has gained access of the LOCKB signal and the PCI bus. The

first cycle of a locked access must be a read cycle. The initiator asserts FRAMEB and drives the

address of the target on the AD[31:0] lines.

During clock 2, the present initiator asserts LOCKB to indicate to the target that a locked cycle is

in progress.

During clock 3, the target samples the asserted LOCKB signal and marks itself locked. The data

cycle has to complete in order for the lock to be maintained. If for some reason the cycle was

aborted, the initiator must negate LOCKB.

During clock 4, the data transfer completes and the target is locked.

During clock 6, another initiator may use the PCI bus but it cannot use the LOCKB signal. If the

other initiator attempts to access the locked target that it did not lock, the target would reject the

access.

During clock 7, the same initiator that locked this target accesses the target. The initiator asserts

FRAMEB and negates LOCKB to re-establish the lock.

During clock 8, the target samples LOCKB deasserted and locks itself.

During clock 9, the initiator does not want to continue the lock so it negates LOCKB. The target

samples LOCKB and FRAMEB deasserted it removes its lock.
