    摘要: A port is to couple to another die over a die-to-die (D2D) link and includes physical layer (PHY) circuitry including a first number of sideband lanes to carry data for use in training and management of the D2D link, and a second number of mainband lanes to implement a main data path of the D2D link. The mainband lanes include a forwarded clock lane, a valid lane, and a plurality of data lanes. A logical PHY coordinates functions of the sideband lanes and the mainband lanes.

    摘要: The present disclosure describes a number of embodiments related to devices and techniques for implementing an interconnect switch to provide a switchable low-latency bypass between node resources such as CPUs and accelerator resources for caching. A resource manager may be used to receive an indication of a node of a plurality of nodes and an indication of an accelerator resource of a plurality of accelerator resources to connect to the node. If the indicated accelerator resource is connected to another node of the plurality of nodes, then transmit, to a interconnect switch, one or more hot-remove commands. The resource manager may then transmit to the interconnect switch one or more hot-add commands to connect the node resource and the accelerator resource.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and devices can involve a host device that includes a root complex, a link, and an interconnect protocol stack coupled to a bus link. The interconnect protocol stack can include multiplexing logic to select one of a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) upper layer mode, or an accelerator link protocol upper layer mode, the PCIe upper layer mode or the accelerator link protocol upper layer mode to communicate over the link, and physical layer logic to determine one or more low latency features associated with one or both of the PCIe upper layer mode or the accelerator link protocol upper layer mode.

    摘要: A system and apparatus can include a port for transmitting data; and a link coupled to the port. The port can include a physical layer device (PHY) to decode a physical layer packet, the physical layer packet received across the link. The physical layer packet can include a first bit sequence corresponding to a first ordered set, and a second bit sequence corresponding to a second ordered set, the first bit sequence immediately adjacent to the second bit sequence. The first ordered set is received at a predetermined ordered set interval, which can occur following a flow control unit (flit). The first ordered set comprises eight bytes and the second ordered set comprises eight bytes. In embodiments, bit errors in the ordered sets can be determined by checking bits received against expected bits for the ordered set interval.
