答复: structure agnostic transport and a start of a frame
Jouni,
There may be some varied types of upper
layer data carried over RoE frame, so the size is also varied, which RoE
frame is the first part of upper layer data package and which RoE frame
is the end of upper layer data package should be indicated, then 1 more
bit may be needed.

Folks,
Kevin brought up an interesting point a while back. If we want a truly
structure agnostic transport mode be supported that would imply just a
stream of bits. For example, in a case of CPRI we would not even touch
8B/10B or 64B/66B coding to preserve e.g. K-characters etc. I am fine with
this (with some pain). However, it could be beneficial to indicate the
start of a frame in the RoE header (1 bit flag). The assumption I have
is that all data streams to be carried over RoE in structure agnostic mode
still have some kind of framing. As an example we could indicate the start
of each hyper frame in a case of CPRI.
The same flag would also serve structure aware modes & native RoE flows.
Just to indicate when some packet is a start of a radio frame or other
framing..
This is a small optimization that may or may not be worth it.. Comments/thoughts?
