RE: Hari and train-up sequences
I need some clarification here. Are you proposing a link initialization for
the Hari? If so, are you also proposing a link initialization for the local
device to link partner connection? If you're proposing both, then are you
proposing to have 3 stages of link initialization? If so, I believe that
this may add more complexity than we need to deal with.
Cheers,
Brad

That's right. The deskew logic can made easier. If it looks for
Link codes which come every N idles, where N = 4 for example,
the window is bigger than deskewing off of idles. And there is a
distinct
beginning and end to the deskew period.
