    Hi Steve,

    Thanks for your confirmation, I will transition this support thread to community.

    Any time in future, if you having any problem, you may file a new thread.
    Someone will be there to support you. If you need my support on PCIe IP, please mention my name "Wincent" so that this will route to my support Q.

    If your support experience falls below a 9 out of 10, I kindly request the opportunity to rectify it before concluding our interaction. If the issue cannot be resolved, please inform me via this forum page of the cause so that I can learn from it and strive to enhance the quality of future service experiences.

<p>It seems the FPGA isn't being detected as a PCIe device after passive serial configuration. To resolve this, ensure the correct PCIe drivers are installed and verify the device tree setup if using embedded Linux. You might also want to manually trigger a rescan and check the FPGA vendor's documentation for specific instructions on setting up PCIe detection. If the issue persists, contacting the FPGA manufacturer's support could provide further guidance.</p>
