Isn't there any description for FATAL ERROR of OCS?
Can I take like below?
Even though Response field is 'Target Failure', OCS field can get a success
result.
I just has focused what spec. says below:
- FATAL ERROR within host controller that is not covered by the error
conditions described above in this table.
- The field contains the status code for the request.
- Host software may need to check Transfer Response UPIU's Response, and
possibly Sense Data to find out more details for the cause of the error.
Because host doesn't know and decide the error status, host could need to check.

It may depend on host's implementation. HCI spec. doesn't guide for OCS in
detail.
Anyway, it's not clear just now.
