33.5.4.5.1, 33-65 The order of steps is incorrect. Current step #2 (“Use the new group order table...”)
should immediately follow current step # 6 (“Software should wait...”). Therefore,
current step # 6 becomes the new step #5 and current step #2 becomes the new step
#6.
33.5.4.10, 33-70 Replace #4 and #7 with the following:
4. GDS (Group Delay Synchronized)—Group delay synchronized achieved or group delay
synchronized not achieved. In some cases, it is not possible for the GDS to complete. GDS can not
complete if a link experiences problems during the GDS process - for example losing SYNC state
for the IFSM. If this occurs, it is not possible to determine the links true differential delay with
respect to other member links of the group. In order to determine if the GDS process completed
successfully, the microcode will set IGRST ATE[GDSS] to either of the following values after the
GDS interrupt has been generated:
IGRSTATE[GDSS] = 00 - GDS process failed, a link lost IFSM SYNC during GDS process
IGRSTATE[GDSS] = 11 - GDS process completed
Software can then read IGRSTATE[GDSS] and use this status information before deciding whether
to change the links to the active state or to try and resynchronize again at the group level. In
addition to the above status information, the ILRSTA TE[ADD_NEW_M] bit of the link that caused
the failure of the GDS process will be flipped such that it is logically inverted with respect to the
ILRCNTL[ADD_NEW] bit. It is recommended however, that software, after GDS failure and
when restarting the GDS process, changes all of the links in the group to the group unassigned state
and then update the link and group parameters to their default values before starting the GDS
process again. Note that a link losing SYNC during the GDS process can cause DCBO interrupt
for other links in the group. If this situation occurs, the GDS process should be restarted as
described above.
7. DSL (DCB Synchronization Lost)—Indicates that a link in a group with IGRSTATE[GDSS] = 11
loses synchronization and enters the HUNT state at the IFSM. When this interrupt occurs, the link
should be removed by software, and the CPM will no longer perform the automatic LASR
procedure. Note that when the interrupt is generated, the ILRSTATE[DL] bit is set, and the
software should clear the IMA group and link receive state information as described above for the
GDS interrupt.
34.2, 34-4 In the top center of Figure 34-2 “DBB bus” should be replaced with “60x bus.”
35.19, 35-27 Replace the second paragraph after Table 35-10 with the following:
The receive buffer pointer, which points to the first location of the associated data
buffer, can reside in external memory. This value must be divisible by 16.
38.4.1.1, 38-10 In Example 3, the representation of data transmitted when REV = 0 and REV =1
should appear as follows (changes appear in boldface):
with REV=0, the string transmitted, a byte at a time with lsb first is:
first nmlk_jihg__vuts_r last
with REV=1, the string is half-word reversed:
msb nmlk_jihg__vuts_r lsb
