@eddyk-nvidia MLSE is a known technique similar to existing channel equalization techniques like DFE, FFE, CTLE. Though here its being introduced in the LPO context, its not a mandatory attribute as per the LPO MSA. Its upto the user if they want to derive the extra BER improved performance that comes with MLSE being enabled. For example, NLC attribute introduced here is also optional and not mandatory but helps to remove the non linearity based on your application specific channel characteristics.
