    Abstract: Computing devices and techniques for providing link partner health reporting are described. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus may include at least one memory, and logic, at least a portion of the logic comprised in hardware coupled to the at least one memory, the logic to determine a plurality of error counters, each of the plurality of error counters associated with a number of errors, determine the number of errors for each data unit of a plurality of data units associated with a data block, increment each of the plurality of error counters corresponding with the number of errors for each data unit of the plurality of data units, provide a plurality of error counts for the data block to a link partner, the plurality of error counts corresponding to the number of errors accumulated in each of the plurality of error counters for the data block, and reset the plurality of error counters. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for supporting active link status during LAN interface reset and reconfigurations. Under one aspect, during normal operations traffic is transmitted over an Ethernet link coupling a first link partner to a second link partner. In response to a network interface re-configuration event, transmission of traffic over the Ethernet link is paused while keeping the Physical layer (PHY) of the Ethernet link active. The configuration of the first link partner is updated while the transmission of traffic is paused and the PHY of the Ethernet link is active. Upon completion of the configuration update, the link partners resume transmission of traffic over the Ethernet link. Additional schemes are provided that support re-configuration of network interfaces that support link and per priority flow control. According to another aspect, separate power domains are used for the PHY and the MAC circuitry, enabling the MAC circuitry to be reset via a power cycle while maintaining power to the PHY circuitry.
