PER-FUNCTION DOWNSTREAM PORT CONTAINMENT

摘要

Per-Function Downstream Port Containment (pF-DPC) is an extension to Downstream Port Containment (DPC) in the Peripheral Component Interconnect express (PCIe) standard. Pf-DPC confines non-fatal errors to specific functions of an end-point device without disabling the link between a PCIe port and the end-point device. PCIe ports configured for pF-DPC may filter (e.g., drop) packets carrying routing identifiers (RIDs) and/or addresses assigned to a function affected by a non-fatal error, while continuing to forward packets carrying RIDs/addresses associated with remaining operable functions over the corresponding link.
