Abstract

An enhanced general input/output (EGIO) communication architecture, protocol and related methods are presented. The elements of an EGIO architecture may include one or more of a root complex (e.g., implemented within a bridge), a switch, and end-points, each incorporating at least a subset of EGIO features to support EGIO communication between such elements.
