A SYSTEM COMMUNICATION TECHNIQUE OVER PCIe (PERIPHERAL COMPONENT INTERCONNECT EXPRESS) LINK

Abstract:

Examples relate to apparatuses, devices, methods and computer programs for a Root Complex (RC) and/or for an Endpoint (EP) of a PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect express) system, to a PCIe system and to a gateway device comprising a PCIe system. An apparatus configured for a RC of a PCIe system comprises a memory and one or more processors, which are configured to generate a PCIe VDM (Vendor Defined Message) message for an EP of the PCIe system.
