A transmission/reception device includes a transmission device that divides a plurality of connection lines into a plurality of groups, determines corresponding connection lines in the plurality of groups, determines a correspondence between test pattern and the connection line, and outputs the test pattern to the plurality of connection lines based on the correspondence between the test pattern and the connection line, and a reception device that receives the test pattern from the transmission device, compares bits in a same position of the test pattern received through a corresponding connection line in the plurality of groups based on the correspondence between the test pattern and the connection line, and generates erroneous connection line information indicating an erroneous connection line as a connection line in which an error has occurred in the plurality of connection lines based on a result of the comparison.

A method of updating a routing table includes: receiving, from an issue-source node, a write packet that includes update data for updating the routing table; attempting to recognize, based upon contents of the write packet, a partition in which the issue-source node is included; determining whether to permit updating the routing table based upon (1) whether the partition including the source node is recognized and (2) whether port information and partition information in the update data are stored in the routing table; and updating the routing table when updating is permitted.

A northbridge, when detecting a synchronization break of a redundant CPU, stops the operation of an abnormal CPU bus where an error has occurred and the firmware in a firmware hub instructs the northbridge to inhibit an external instruction. In addition, the firmware saves the inside information of a normal CPU connected to a normal CPU bus and cache data on a memory and the northbridge issues reset to all CPUs in the home system board. The firmware then restores the inside information of the CPU saved on the memory to all CPUs and instructs the northbridge to cancel the inhibition of the external instruction.

An information processing device having two processing units capable of operating in synchronization with each other, includes: a common unit capable of outputting an identical signal to the two processing units; detection units that are respectively provided for the processing units and each detects errors occurred in corresponding processing unit respectively; a comparison unit that compares outputs from the two processing units; and a control unit that controls signals from the processing units to the common unit, based on a detection result of the detection units and a comparison result of the comparison unit, and determines, if errors of an identical type are simultaneously detected by the detection units, that the errors are due to an error of the common unit.

Information processing device and error processing method

A semiconductor integrated circuit includes a circuit block connected to an arithmetic processing unit via a bus, a power supply noise data generator which is configured to generate a power supply noise data signal by converting power supply noise generated in power supply voltage of power supply operates the circuit block, an error detector which is configured to detect an error of data outputted from the circuit block to the bus, and a write controller which is configured to associate power supply noise information based on the power supply noise data signal with data on the bus and write the data in a storage unit, and to stop to write the data in response to the detection of the error by the error detector.
