Abstract:
A technique is described by which two link agents with ports coupled together using a point-to-point interconnect in a system exchange their link width support capabilities and negotiate a link width that is mutually agreeable. The interconnect between each pair of agents comprises a pair of uni-directional links having multiple electrical wires, or lanes, where one link is used by a first agent to transmit data to a second agent and another link is used by the second agent to transmit data to the first agent.
