Hi

Typically FPGA can support retraining to a lower Gen speed (usually called down training) but not retraining to a higher Gen speed. The hard IP does support changing gen speeds but not training up, for example Gen1->Gen3 is not allowed. Thus Gen1->Gen3 is not something supported with CvP either.
