From: Bill.Martin@emulex.com To: <Brian.Day@lsi.com>, <t10@t10.org> Date: Wed, 5 Nov 2008 11:16:11 -0800 Subject: Response to 08-425r0 X-Message-Number: 9267 Formatted message: HTML-formatted message Brian: I understood the need to detect the TRAIN_DONE primitive in the training state; however, I do not see the reason that a TRAIN or TRAIN_DONE has to be received before exiting this state. The device will continue sending TRAIN_DONE until a TRAIN_DONE is received, so the device that is later entering the training sequence will see a TRAIN or TRAIN_DONE sequence during its training process, and should be able to train on either pattern. I would like to see the new item d) in 6.8.4.12.5. I am sorry that I did not catch this part of your proposal in our discussions on Monday.
