## Data Fields

uint32_t | raw
uint8_t | lpeCnt
| [rw] Low Power Entrance Count
uint8_t | lnkState
| [rw] Link State.
uint8_t | forceLink
| [rw] Force Link.
uint8_t | linkNum
| [rw] Link Number. Not used for EP.

## Detailed Description

Specification of the Port Force Link register.

This register may be used for both endpoint and root complex modes.

## Field Documentation

uint8_t pciePlForceLinkReg_s::forceLink

[rw] Force Link.

Forces the link to the state specified by the lnkState field. The Force Link pulse will trigger link re-negotiation.

Field size: 1 bit

uint8_t pciePlForceLinkReg_s::linkNum

[rw] Link Number. Not used for EP.

Field size: 8 bits

uint8_t pciePlForceLinkReg_s::lnkState

[rw] Link State.

The link state that the PCIe will be forced to when forceLink field is set. See pcieLtssmState_e for LTSSM states encoded values.

Field size: 6 bits

uint8_t pciePlForceLinkReg_s::lpeCnt

[rw] Low Power Entrance Count

Field size: 8 bits

uint32_t pciePlForceLinkReg_s::raw

[ro] Raw image of register on read; actual value on write
