PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL TO PMC-SIERRA, INC., AND FOR ITS CUSTOMERS’ INTERNAL USE

Read_delay

Reads a snapshot of the link-defect status and

link-delay information for all of the links within

the group. The delay information can be used to

determine differential delay, the link with the

most delay, and any other delay characteristics

of the group. The delay information is provided

in units of cells.

Adjust_delay

Adjusts the delay of a group by removing the

amount of specified delay. While the delay is

being adjusted, links cannot be added or

recovered for the group.

In addition to performing commands from the plane management, the RIPP

processes the ICP cells forwarded by the RDAT. When ICP cells arrive from a

group, they may be out of order in time due to differential delay between links.

The RIPP must examine the ICP cell and determine if it has any new information

that needs processing. This can be determined via the IMA frame number and

the SSCI field. When processing the ICP cells and the link states, attention must

be taken not to violate the group wide procedures. When link or group states are

changed, updated ICP cells are sent to the TIMA for transmission. Any state

changes are also communicated to the appropriate schedulers and round-robin

processors.

10.2.5.1

Group Start-up and Differential Delay

On group start-up, when at least Prx Links obtain IMA frame synchronization, the

links will be evaluated. As each link is evaluated, the differential delay of the

accepted links is tracked. If a link cannot be accepted because the acceptance of

the link would violate the programmed maximum DCB threshold (fastest link

minus current data read pointer), the link will remain in the unusable state and

begin to report a LODS defect. Accepted links will begin to report a usable state.

At this point, as additional links acquire frame sync, they are evaluated and either

are accepted or begin to report an LODS defect. When all links have acquired

frame sync or the timer has expired, the accepted receive links are reported as

active. If at least Prx links have been accepted, the group state machine

transitions to operational.
