RING_BL_USED
• Title: R3 BL Ring in Use
• Category: RING Events
• Event Code: 0x09
• Max. Inc/Cyc:. 1, Register Restrictions: 0-2
• Definition: Counts the number of cycles that the BL ring is being used at this ring stop. This
includes when packets are passing by and when packets are being sunk, but does not include when
packets are being sent from the ring stop.
• NOTE: On a 2 column implementation (e.g. 10C) CW_EVEN is actually
CW_VR0_EVEN+CW_VR1_EVEN (similarly for CCW/ODD). In any cycle, a ring stop can see up to
one packet moving in the CW direction and one packet moving in the CCW direction.
RING_IV_USED
• Title: R2 IV Ring in Use
• Category: RING Events
• Event Code: 0x0a
• Max. Inc/Cyc:. 1, Register Restrictions: 0-2
• Definition: Counts the number of cycles that the IV ring is being used at this ring stop. This
includes when packets are passing by and when packets are being sent, but does not include when
packets are being sunk into the ring stop. The IV ring is unidirectional. Whether UP or DN is used is
dependent on the system programming. Therefore, one should generally set both the UP and DN
bits for a given polarity (or both) at a given time.
