11.3.1. ECRC on the RX Path

When the ECRC generation option is turned on, errors are detected when receiving TLPs with a bad ECRC. If the ECRC generation option is turned off, no error detection occurs. If the ECRC forwarding option is turned on, the ECRC value is forwarded to the Application Layer with the TLP. If the ECRC forwarding option is turned off, the ECRC value is not forwarded.
