ML605 boards with Virtex-6 FPGA CES (Engineering Sample) siliconmust use the v1.3 rev 2 Integrated Block Wrapper for PCI Express available in ISE 12.1and later software versions. The rev 2 patch is available from (Xilinx Answer 36552) and fixes issues with linking up and implementation.
Later versions of the Integrated Block Wrapper for PCI Express (v1.4 and later) only work on Virtex-6 FPGA Production grade silicon and can be used on ML605 boards that have production silicon. For more information about the Integrated Block Wrapper for PCI Express releases, see the Release Notes found in the IP Release Notes Guide (XTP025): http://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/ip_documentation/xtp025.pdf
To identify if your ML605 board has CES or Production silicon, use iMPACT to read the IDCODE back of the silicon and you should see one of the following:
iMPACT output fromCES Silicon
'2': IDCODE is '24250093' (in hex).
'2': : Manufacturer's ID = Xilinx xc6vlx240t, Version : 2
iMPACT output fromProduction Silicon
'2': IDCODE is '44250093' (in hex).
'2': : Manufacturer's ID = Xilinx xc6vlx240t, Version : 4
