Hi,
>> "... please check if you can see PCIe after a host warm reboot. "
The card is still not visible.
>> QSF
See attached file, I needed to change the file name from QSF to RTF because of this error:
The file type (.qsf) is not supported.

Thanks for the files.
Please refer to XCVR guide 1. Arria® 10 Transceiver PHY Overview
Your PCIe rx/tx pins are using bank 1C and 1D therefore you should use either PIN_AB28 or PIN_AD28 as PCIe refclk. Current PIN_Y28 can work as PCIe refclk only when PIN_AB28 and PIN_AD28 are not used.

Hi. I have another question regarding the connection of reference clocks for the transceiver banks. I checked Arria® 10 Transceiver PHY Overview and Arria® 10 and Cyclone® 10 GX Avalon® Memory-Mapped (AvalonMM) Interface for PCI Express* User Guide and I can't find information on how to connect PCIe reference clock. Can you point me to the manual chapter or page number where can I find this info?
From your reply, I can make the following conclusion: Use REFCLK....CHB if first GXBL channels are used (as we have PCIe lanes 2 and 3 on bank 1D channels 0 and 1) or use REFCLK...CHT where the last two channels are used (as we have PCIe lanes 0 and 1 on bank 1C channels 4 and 5).
Kind regards, Marko
