Agenda for T13 Ad-Hoc Working Group Sep 4, 2003
Here are the Action Items (AI) from the last T13 meeting that we will be discussing at the Webex telecon on Thursday. In addition to these specific items, we will review any open edits as time permits. We will also allow new items to be added to the agenda as needed.
1) AI 14 14.4.9 Table 11 >= 175nS clarification
2) AI 8 - 14.5.6.1 Idle Bus State: During the idle bus condition, the differential signal diminishes to zero while the common mode level of 250 mV remains. Should this be for DC coupled only?
3) AI 5 - Power-on Sequence fig 39 Clause 14.5.6.2.8 step g) device responds, is different than COMRESET clause 14.5.6.2.3.1 step f) and COMINIT 14.5.6.2.4 step d) should they be the same? COMRESET/COMINIT says speed adjust is 2048 Dwords, Power-on description 14.5.6.2.8 g) says to transmit them for 54.6us at that rate. Which is correct? Also ensure State diagrams and state descriptions are correct.
4) AI 10 - 14.5.6.2.8 In Power-on Sequence clause it says:
Host/device power-off - Host and device power-off. There is host side signal conditioning that will pull the host TX and RX pairs low if power is off. Is this correct?
5) AI 9 - Clause 15.4.8.1 Table 23 - 20 Dword Latency example does not add up to 20.
6) AI 6 - 16.7.7 Clarify DTDATAI2:DTI0 (Is it DMAT?)
7) E03134r0 AI 7 - 17.12 Figure 100 READ DMA QUEUED command protocol.
The command layer state diagrams do not account for the non-release option for DMA if the data is not ready “immediately”. Should the non-release state say “ready to transfer data, or no release desired”?
Guidance, OK, Edit change for review
Changes included with new drawing that also show Register DH FIS. WG to decide which is correct.
8) Need AI - 17.6 Why doesn't’t this protocol have the same SRST statement as the other protocols at the beginning of each protocol?
9) AI 11 - 17.x Where is the BIST protocol? (not a command).
10) AI 12 18.1 (Done) Integrate nIEN information to 18.1.
11) AI 13 - Non-existent devices in Vol 1.
12) E03129r0 AI 18, 19, 20 - Incorporate time limited RW updates (if approved).
13) E03126r0 - Add new connector to Vol 3 if approved, to be provided by Knut.
14) E03120r0 AI 3 - Incorporate Unload immediate if approved.
15) E03133r0 AI 4 - DCO Updates from Hatfield’s proposal if approved.
