I don't attest to knowing much about PCI, and get what you're saying, and it makes sense

Ok, I'm glad the explanation was clear.

my Arrow FAE just wrote me to say
" I will take a look at [The Arria V] soc [board], I think it might be a cable PCI-E.
it is capable of root or endpoint, so there must be something we can do."

Cool. Post his response when you get it. The Arria V SoC board would need to have clock multiplexer logic on its PCIe connector.
I suspect that it may support "being a PCIe device" via an FMC connector rather than through the PCIe connector.

But again, it's moot, you've got me over to Rocketboard.

Yah!
Let me know how it goes :)
I've avoided the SoC boards so far, as I've wanted to avoid the teething stages of the tools (synthesis and software) ... and it would be too much of a fun distraction :)
