From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx> When a TIP packet is expected but there is a different packet, it is an error. However the unexpected packet might be something important like a TSC packet, so after the error, it is necessary to continue from there, rather than the next packet. That is achieved by setting pkt_step to zero.
