PCIe Avalon MM w/ DMA port to Gen2 x1 Layer on Avalon-ST?

Hello,

I am attempting to port a PCIe Avalon-MM w/ DMA flavor's 'APP' and 'DMA' layer to layer on top of an Avalon-ST flavor of the PCIe Hard IP core. Looking at the design, there seems to be a particular interface that differs between the 2 flavors -- namely the MSI. Are interface signals listed below somehow implicitly wired internally to the PCIe Hard-IP, or are they not used?

output logic [81:0] AvMsiIntfc_o,
output logic [15:0] AvMsixIntfc_o,
output logic [15:0] Msi_control_o,

Looking at it in RTL viewer, it appears to not route anywhere downstream. I also seem to believe completions are in band and are handled at a packet level and thus be handled by the read/write data mover logic.

On another note, if there is a better method to leveraging the DMA IP to a Gen2 x2 and lower PCIe version, I am open to recommendation to do so...

Hi,


May I know which device you are using? Could you share the IP file with settings and the screenshot of the RTL viewer ?


Thanks

Best regards,
