Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) is a mechanism defined by PCI-SIG that allows a single Physical PCIe device to be multiple PCIe devices. This is realized with Physical Function (PF) and Virtual Function (VF). PF is a full-fledged PCIe entity with its own entire PCIe configuration space whereas VF is a subset of a PF and contains minimal configuration space definition.
The simulation will run into an error message when simulating the out-of-the-box example design with the Virtex-7 FPGA Gen3 Integrated Block for PCI Express core configured for SRIOV. It is because the current example design simulation testbench (v2.1) does not support SRIOV. This document describes in detail the modification required in the example design test bench to be able to read and write configuration space of the configured PFs and VFs.
