2.7.2.1.5. Receiver Status
The PCIe* specification requires the PHY to encode the receiver status on a 3-bit status signal pipe_rx_status[2:0]. This status signal is used by the PHY-MAC layer for its operation. The PIPE interface block receives status signals from the transceiver channel PCS and PMA blocks, and encodes the status on the pipe_rx_status[2:0] signal to the FPGA fabric. The encoding of the status signals on the pipe_rx_status[2:0] signal conforms to the PCIe specification.
