4.3.11NO OPERATION

The NO OPERATION message is sent from an initiator in response to a target’s request for a message when the initiator does not currently have any other valid message to send.

For example, if the target does not respond to the attention condition until a later phase and at that time the original message is no longer valid the initiator may send the NO OPERATION message when the target switches to a MESSAGE OUT phase.
