v3.0 (Rev2)Not Resolved Yet; Tactical Patch Provided
(Xilinx Answer 73179)

Tactical Patch for Issue Fixes:

  • Feature Enhancement: Added 'axis_c2h_status_error' port for C2H stream status
  • Feature Enhancement: Added new feature to send marker response cookie on C2H descriptor bypass out when marker is set
  • Feature Enhancement: Resource reduction changes to reduce number of BRAMs used
  • Feature Enhancement: Added 32/64bit BAR selection for AXI BARs
  • Feature Enhancement: Renamed ecam_en Tcl parameter to vdm_en
v3.0 (Rev2)Not Resolved Yet; Tactical Patch Provided
(Xilinx Answer 73653)Tactical Patch for Issue Fixes:
  • Bug Fix: Fixed PCIe transmit credit initialization when soft_reset_n pin is used
v3.0 (Rev1)Not Resolved Yet; Tactical Patch Provided
(Xilinx Answer 72436)Tactical Patch for Issue Fixes:

  • XSIM Simulation issue.
  •  Enable Gen4 option in the GUI for HBM PCIe blocks
v3.0 (Rev1)Not Resolved Yet; Tactical Patch Provided
(Xilinx Answer 72412)Timing failure on certain devices with specific configurationsv3.0 (Rev1)Not Resolved Yet
(Xilinx Answer 72013)Tactical Patch for Issue Fixes:

  • Mailbox interrupt issue fix: Mailbox interrupts were generating only from PF vectors and were not able to generate from other vectors
  • Interrupts not received properly with mix of direct interrupts and indirect interrupts
  • AXI-MM only with completion option not working
  • Write back coalesce buffer depth of 32 and 64 not working, 32 depth issue is fixed and 64 depth is not allowed
  • Prefetch cache depth GUI parameter propagation issue
  • C2H write back timer deletion issue: Injection of a timer immediately after deletion causes deletion to stall and resulting in multiple timers
  • Marker response not working when queue is disabled
  • Issue with more than 8 interrupt vectors per function using Tcl option CONFIG.adv_int_usr
  • Expansion ROM space (EPROM selected in last BAR) read/write access issue
  • Example design issue: Completions are not received for ST C2H transfers which follows mix payload transfers (immediate data and payload data)
  • Removed empty cycle after SOP in C2H DMA write engine to improve performance
