    Abstract: An apparatus that includes a serial interconnect is provided, wherein the serial interconnect includes test logic to send a number of reporting messages, wherein each reporting message is associated with a link sub-segment in a link in the serial interconnect, and each reporting message comprises a status region for the associated link sub-segment to report transmission errors. The test logic also includes analysis logic to record errors in the link sub-segment.

    Abstract: Aspects of the embodiments are directed to systems, methods, and computer program products that facilitate a downstream port to operate in Separate Reference Clocks with Independent Spread Spectrum Clocking (SSC) (SRIS) mode. The system can determine that the downstream port supports one or more SRIS selection mechanisms; determine a system clock configuration from the downstream port to a corresponding upstream port connected to the downstream port by the PCIe-compliant link; set an SRIS mode in the downstream port; and transmit data across the link from the downstream port using the determined system clock configuration.

    Abstract: A retimer device is provided that includes an elasticity buffer, a receiver, and a controller. The elasticity buffer adds or subtracts data in the elasticity buffer to compensate for different bit rates of two devices to be connected over a link, where the retimer is positioned between the two devices on the link. The receiver receives a data stream to be sent between the two devices on the link. The controller determines, from the data stream, a modification to one or more characteristics of the link, and causes size of the elasticity buffer to be changed from a first size to a second size based on the modification.

    Abstract: A port of a computing device includes multiple receiver-transmitter pairs, each of the receiver-transmitter pairs including a respective receiver and a respective transmitter. The device further includes state machine logic that detects a training sequence received by a particular one of the receiver-transmitter pairs on a particular lane from a tester device. The training sequence includes a value to indicate a test of the particular receiver-transmitter pair by the tester device. The particular receiver-transmitter pair enters a first link state in association with the test and one or more other receiver-transmitter pairs of the port enter a second link state different from the first link state in association with the test to cause crosstalk to be generated on the particular lane during the test.

    Abstract: In an embodiment, an apparatus includes a counter to count between a start value and an end value according to a local clock signal, a first register to store an output of the counter, a mirror elastic buffer to store samples of the counter output received from the first register, where the mirror elastic buffer is to mirror an elastic buffer of a receiver circuit, and a resolution logic to receive a counter output sample from the mirror elastic buffer and a current counter value output from the counter, and to determine a transit latency for a data element to traverse the receiver circuit based at least in part on the counter output sample and the current counter value. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
