Framing Layer Metaframe Format
The framing control words include:
•
Synchronization (SYNC)—for frame delineation and lane alignment (deskew)
•
Scrambler State (SCRM)—to synchronize the scrambler
•
Skip (SKIP)—for clock compensation in a repeater
•
Diagnostic (DIAG)—provides per-lane error check and optional status message
To form a metaframe, the Enhanced PCS frame generator inserts the framing control
words and encapsulates the control and data words read from the TX FIFO as the
metaframe payload.

Interlaken Skip Word Format
The DIAG word is comprised of a status field and a CRC-32 field. The 2-bit status is
defined by the Interlaken specification as:
•
Bit 1 (Bit 33): Lane health
— 1: Lane is healthy
— 0: Lane is not healthy
•
Bit 0 (Bit 32): Link health
— 1: Link is healthy
— 0: Link is not healthy
