    Abstract: A serial point-to-point link interface to enable communication between a processor and a device, the high speed serial point-to-point link interface including a transmitter to transmit serial data, a receiver to deserialize serial data, and control logic to implement a protocol stack. The protocol stack supports a plurality of power management states, including an active state, a first off state, in which a supply voltage is maintained, and a second off state, in which the supply voltage is not to be provided to the device. The protocol stack provides a default recovery time to allow the device to begin a transition from the first off state to the active state prior to accessing the device. The protocol stack further provides for accessing the device prior to expiration of the default recovery time to complete the transition based on a device-advertised recovery time.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a converged protocol stack can be used to unify communications from a first communication protocol to a second communication protocol to provide for data transfer across a physical interconnect. This stack can be incorporated in an apparatus that includes a protocol stack for a first communication protocol including transaction and link layers, and a physical (PHY) unit coupled to the protocol stack to provide communication between the apparatus and a device coupled to the apparatus via a physical link. This PHY unit may include a physical unit circuit according to the second communication protocol. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method for sending a first link handshake signal between a first subsystem and a power management unit (PMU) of a system on a chip (SoC) to request entry into a power saving state for the first subsystem, sending a second link handshake signal between the first subsystem and the PMU to acknowledge the request, and placing the first subsystem into the power saving state without further signaling between the PMU and the first subsystem. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: An adapter is provided that includes a first interface to couple to a particular device, where link layer data is to be communicated over the first interface, and a second interface to couple to a physical layer (PHY) device. The PHY device includes wires to implement a physical layer of a link, and the link couples the adapter to another adapter via the PHY device. The second interface includes a data channel to communicate the link layer data over the physical layer, and a sideband channel to communicate sideband messages between the adapter and the other adapter over the physical layer. The adapter is to implement a logical PHY for the link.

    Abstract: First data is received on a plurality of data lanes of a physical link and a stream signal corresponding to the first data is received on a stream lane identifying a type of the first data. A first instance of an error detection code of a particular type is identified in the first data. Second data is received on at least a portion of the plurality of data lanes and a stream signal corresponding to the second data is received on the stream lane identifying a type of the second data. A second instance of the error detection code of the particular type is identified in the second data. The stream lane is another one of the lanes of the physical link and, in some instance, the type of the second data is different from the type of the first data.
