I write this email to request to below 2 link types.


 1.  MCTP

      ...

MCTP packet is defined in DMTF PMCI working group Management
Component Transport Protocol (MCTP) Base
Specification(https://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/D
SP0236_1.3.1.pdf) 8.1 MCTP packet fields. It starts with MCTP transport header
in Figure 4 - Generic message fields.

So this is for MCTP messages, independent of the physical layer?
[Jiewen] That is correct.


Presumably the not-a-multiple-of-8-bits fields in Table 1 go from the high-order
bits to the low-order bits, so that the upper 4 bits of the first byte are the RSVD
field and the lower 4 bits of the first byte are the Hdr version?
[Jiewen] That is correct.


 1.  PCI_DOE

PCI Data Object Exchange (DOE) is an industry standard defined by PCI-SIG
(https://pcisig.com/) Data Object Exchange (DOE)
ECN<https://members.pcisig.com/wg/PCI-SIG/document/14143>
(https://members.pcisig.com/wg/PCI-SIG/document/14143).

      ...

PCI Data Object Exchange (DOE) is defined in PCI-SIG Data Object Exchange
(DOE) ECN (https://members.pcisig.com/wg/PCI-SIG/document/14143) 6.xx.1
Data Objects. It starts with DOE Data Object Header 1 in Figure 6-x1: DOE Data
Object Format.

Unfortunately, I'm not a member of the PCI SIG, so I don't have an account to
log in to in order to read that document.

[Jiewen] So, how can I help on this?
