WAIT States from eSPI Target

There are situations when the target cannot predict the length of the command packet from the initiator (PCH). For non-posted transactions, the target is allowed to respond with a limited number of WAIT states.

A WAIT state is a 1-byte response code. They must be the first set of response byte from the target after the TAR cycles.
