|
4 | 0b | RW/1L | SPD Write Disable (SPDWD) When this bit is set to 1, writes to SMBus addresses 50h – 57h are disabled.Note: This bit is R/WO and will be reset on PLTRST# assertion. This bit should be set by BIOS to‘1’. Software can only program this bit when both the START bitand Host Busy bit are ‘0’; otherwise, the write may result inundefined behavior. |
3 | 0b | RW | SSRESET (SSRESET) Soft SMBUS Reset: When this bit is 1, the SMbus state machine and logic in PCH is reset. The HW will reset this bit to 0 when reset operation is completed. |
2 | 0b | RW | I2C_EN (I2CEN) When this bit is 1, the Intel PCH is enabled to communicate with I2C devices. This will change the formatting of some commands. When this bit is 0, behavior is for SMBus. |
1 | 0b | RW | SMB_SMI_EN (SSEN) When this bit is set, any source of an SMB interrupt will instead be routed to generate an SMI#. |
0 | 0b | RW | HST_EN (HSTEN) When set, the SMB Host Controller interface is enabled to execute commands. The HST_INT_EN bit needs to be enabled in order for the SMB Host Controller to interrupt or SMI#. Additionally, the SMB Host Controller will not respond to any new requests until all interrupt requests have been cleared. |
