A method of port numbering in an interconnect device includes loading a port configuration value from a memory device. One or more ports and subports are enabled according to the configuration value. Contiguous logical port numbers are assigned to the one or more ports and subports included in the interconnect device. A mapping request is received; and a mapped response associated with the mapping request is provided to an entity.

Method and system for port numbering in an interconnect device

In one embodiment, a method for facilitating detection of, and recovery from, data contamination in a non-volatile storage device coupled to an interconnect device includes receiving data to be written to a content area on a non-volatile storage device coupled to an interconnect device, updating a contamination indicator stored in a supplemental area of the non-volatile storage device with a first value indicating potential data contamination in the content area, and transferring the data to the non-volatile storage device for a write to the content area. Further, if a determination is made that the write of the transferred data has completed, the contamination indicator is updated with a second value indicating lack of data contamination in the content area.
