3、e-Byte Command Set-3 (FC-SB-3), describes persistent IU pacing, a method for allowing an FC-SB-3 channel to retain a pacing count that can be used at the start of execution of a channel program.This may improve performance of long I/O programs at higher link speeds and long distances by allowingthe

4、Channel to send more IUs to the control unit and eliminating the delay of waiting for the firstCommand Response. This amendment augments, but does not replace, existing Fibre Channelstandards.Approval of an American National Standard requires review by ANSI that therequirements for due process, cons

5、ensus, and other criteria for approval havebeen met by the standards developer.Consensus is established when, in the judgement of the ANSI Board ofStandards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly andmaterially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more thana simple

6、 majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that allviews and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be madetowards their resolution.The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; theirexistence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has

28、ventionsIn this standard, a number of conditions, mechanisms, sequences, parameters, events, states, or similar terms areprinted with the first letter of each word in upper-case and the rest lower-case (e.g., Exchange, Sequence). Anylower case uses of these words have the normal technical English me

29、anings.An alphanumeric list (e.g., a, b, c) of items indicate the items in the list are unordered. A numeric list (e.g., 1, 2, 3)of items indicate the items in the list are ordered (i.e., item 1 shall occur or complete before item 2).In case of any conflict between figures, tables, and text, the tex

30、t takes precedence. Exceptions to this conventionare indicated in the appropriate clauses.In all of the figures, tables, and text of this document, the most significant bit of a binary quantity is shown on theleft side. Exceptions to this convention are indicated in the appropriate clauses.In the va

31、rious ladder diagrams that show a sequence of events, the vertical axis (i.e., up and down the page)shows time from top to bottom.ANSI INCITS 374-2003/AM1-2007 3The ISO convention of numbering is used (i.e., the thousands and higher multiples are separated by a space). Acomma is used as the decimal

32、point. A comparison of the American and ISO conventions is shown in table 1.Numbers that are not immediately followed by lower-case b or h are decimal values (e.g., 25).A sequence of digits 0 or 1 immediately followed by lower-case b (e.g., 0101b) is a binary value. Spaces may beincluded in binary v

33、alues to delineate byte or field boundaries (e.g., 01011 010b).A sequence of digits and/or upper case letters A through F (i.e., a sequence of hexadecimal digits) immediatelyfollowed by lower-case h (e.g., FA23h) is a hexadecimal value. Spaces may be included in hexadecimal values todelineate byte o

34、r field boundaries (e.g., FD 8C FA 23h). When X or Y is used in a hexadecimal notation, it repre-sents a single hexadecimal digit.3.3 Abbreviations, acronyms, and symbols3.3.1 Acronyms and other abbreviationsCCW Channel-Command Word (see FC-SB-3)CRC Cyclic Redundancy Check (see FC-SB-3)CRR Command R

T

47、he control unit may increase the pacing count (the number of IUs allowed to be in flight fromchannel to control unit) in the first Command Response IU sent to the channel. The increased pacing count is validonly for the remainder of the current outbound exchange. In certain applications, at higher l

48、ink speeds, and at longdistances, a performance benefit is obtained by the increase in the allowed pacing count.The IU pacing protocol, as defined, has the limitation that the first burst of IUs from the channel to the control unitmay be no larger than a default value of 16. This causes a delay in t

49、he execution of channel programs with morethan 16 IUs at large distances because a round trip to the control unit is required before the remainder of the IUscan be sent by the channel, upon the receipt of the first command response, as allowed by the increased pacingcount.Persistent IU pacing is a method for allowing an FC-SB-3 channel to retain a pacing count that can be used at thestart of execution of a channel program. This may improve performance of long I/O programs at higher link speedsand long distances by allowing the Channel to send more IUs to the control unit and
