Description

cpl_err[6:0]

Input Completion error. This signal reports completion errors to the Configuration

Space. When an error occurs, the appropriate signal is asserted for one cycle.

cpl_err[0]

: Completion timeout error with recovery. This signal should

be asserted when a master-like interface has performed a non-posted

request that never receives a corresponding completion transaction after

the 50 ms timeout period when the error is correctable. The Hard IP

automatically generates an advisory error message that is sent to the Root

Complex.

cpl_err[1]

: Completion timeout error without recovery. This signal

should be asserted when a master-like interface has performed a non-

posted request that never receives a corresponding completion transac‐

tion after the 50 ms time-out period when the error is not correctable. The

Hard IP automatically generates a non-advisory error message that is sent

to the Root Complex.

cpl_err[2]

: Completer abort error. The Application Layer asserts this

signal to respond to a non-posted request with a Completer Abort (CA)

completion. The Application Layer generates and sends a completion

packet with Completer Abort (CA) status to the requestor and then

asserts this error signal to the Hard IP. The Hard IP automatically sets the

error status bits in the Configuration Space register and sends error

messages in accordance with the PCI Express Base Specification.

cpl_err[3]

: Unexpected completion error. This signal must be asserted

when an Application Layer master block detects an unexpected

completion transaction. Many cases of unexpected completions are

detected and reported internally by the Transaction Layer. For a list of

these cases, refer to Transaction Layer Errors.
