Abstract
Aspects of the embodiments include systems, methods, devices, and computer program products to receive, from the downstream component, an indication of an extended capability; determining, from the indication, one or more configuration parameters for the downstream component; applying the one or more configuration parameters; and performing data signal or control signal transmissions across the PCIe-compliant link with the downstream component based, at least in part, on the applied one or more configuration parameters. The extended capabilities can be indicated by a DVSEC extended capability definition received from a downstream device. The extended capabilities of the downstream component can indicate the number of buses, the port type, the expandability capability, the D3Cold support status, the host router indicator, and/or the safe eject requirements of the downstream component.
