Zusammenfassung:An interface (205) for coupling an agent to a fabric supports a load/store interconnect protocol and includes a header channel (515, 505) implemented on a first subset of a plurality of physical lanes, the first subset of lanes including first lanes to carry a header (505) of a packet based on the interconnect protocol and second lanes to carry metadata for the header (515). The interface additionally includes a data channel (510, 525) implemented on a separate second subset of the plurality of physical lanes, the second subset of lanes including third lanes to carry a payload of the packet (510) and fourth lanes to carry metadata for the payload (525).
