INTR/IDENT Status Return Packet
The INTR/IDENT Status Return packet returns the status for an
INTR/IDENT packet previously transmitted on the Up Hose. The
INTR/IDENT Status Return packet is a flow control message. Receipt of
an INTR/IDENT Status Return packet by an I/O bus adapter allows the
I/O bus adapter to issue another INTR/IDENT packet to the I/O port at
the IPL returned in the INTR/IDENT Status Return packet.
If the I/O port detects an error while trying to process an INTR/IDENT
packet, it logs the error and generates an error interrupt to the CPU. An
INTR/IDENT Status Return packet is sent across the Down Hose so the
I/O bus adapter can still clear its INTR pending bit, if not prohibited by
the error condition. Any hose or Turbo Vortex errors detected by the I/O
port prevents the I/O port from returning an INTR/IDENT Status Return
packet. If the CSR write to the TLIOINTR register in TLSB broadcast
space (to post the interrupt to the CPU) fails, or if the C/A cycle of the CPU
read of the I/O port's TLILID register has a parity error, the I/O port does
