Abstract: Disclosed are methods of operating a casino gaming system to establish a play session for an anonymous player in which the player voluntarily provides biometric information to link the player to a player tracking record in a database of the system. In some embodiments, the player grants permission for a camera integrated into an electronic gaming machine to capture a facial image to assist in the location of the record or creation of a new record associated with the player's biometric signature. In other embodiments, the player voluntarily uses a camera integrated into a personal electronic device, such as the player's smartphone, to capture the facial image. Once the player record to be used has been identified, the record is linked to the electronic gaming machine to create a play session from which player tracking data is collected and integrated into the database record associated with the anonymous player.

Abstract: A physical layer (PHY) is coupled to a serial, differential link that is to include a number of lanes. The PHY includes a transmitter and a receiver to be coupled to each lane of the number of lanes. The transmitter coupled to each lane is configured to embed a clock with data to be transmitted over the lane, and the PHY periodically issues a blocking link state (BLS) request to cause an agent to enter a BLS to hold off link layer flit transmission for a duration. The PHY utilizes the serial, differential link during the duration for a PHY associated task selected from a group including an in-band reset, an entry into low power state, and an entry into partial width state.
