Abstract
A point-to-point interconnection and communication architecture, protocol and related methods is presented.
Claims15
A method comprising:
- detecting an error in a datagram received via a general input/output bus;
- selectively modifying the datagram with a tailer denoting that the datagram is defective;
- and
- forwarding the modified datagram to its destination.
1 more element
A storage medium comprising content which, when executed by an accessing electronic device, endows the electronic device with an enhanced general input/output (EGIO) interface to detect an error in a datagram received by the device via a general input/output bus, selectively modify the datagram with a tailer denoting that the datagram is defective, and forward the modified datagram to its destination.
An apparatus comprising:
- a general input/output bus;
- and
- two or more components communicatively coupled via the general input/output bus, at least one of the two components including an interface which facilitates communication by the component over the bus, the interface including a transaction layer that detects an error in a datagram received via a general input/output bus, selectively modifies the datagram with a tailer denoting that the datagram is defective, and forwards the modified datagram to its destination.
