LP_TOV is used to keep a Loop from deteriorating due to protocol errors or lost Ordered Sets.   

LP_TOV is also used during initialization and to reset the fairness window. 

Link Failure is defined when a receiver has continuously detected loss of synchronization for a period of R_T_TOV. 
When this occurs, the drive will transmit LIP(F8) on that port.

If an invalid frame delimiter is received for a:

•- FCP_DATA frame, the exchange shall terminate with a CHECK CONDITION status.  The resulting Sense data will 

have the Sense Key set to Aborted command and the Additional Sense Code set to Data Phase Error.

•- non-FCP_DATA frame, the frame shall be discarded and ignored.
