14 years agoThis information is defined in the PCIe User Guide - see link below:
http://www.altera.com/literature/ug/ug_pci_express.pdf#page=124 The app_msi_num[4:0] vector is to identify which of the 32 possible MSI interrupts you are asserting. The app_msi_tc[2:0] is identify which traffic class to send the MSI interrupt. I recommend getting a copy of the PCIe spec and digging in a bit on MSI, then come back to the PCIe User Guide. It will make more sense.
