• Characteristics of Uncorrectable Errors<br />

− Impact the functionality of the interface<br />

− No mechanism defined in the specification to correct these errors<br />

− Reporting an uncorrectable error is similar to asserting SERR# in PCI/PCI-X<br />

• Further Classification of Uncorrectable Errors<br />

− Fatal Errors<br />

Errors cause the particular link and related hardware unreliable<br />

Reset of the component on the lank may be required<br />

How to handle is platform implementation specific<br />

− Non-Fatal Errors<br />

Errors cause a particular transaction to be unreliable<br />

But the link is otherwise fully functional<br />

This classification provides related HW or SW an opportunity to recover the error without<br />

resetting the components on the link and disturbing other transactions in progress<br />
