    Thank for your following up on this issue, SK.

    Our issue got resolved, on setting the base class code (upper byte at offset 0Bh in the PCIe configuration space) to 0xFF (Device does not fit any defined class). We did not have to change our host device or OS.

    We were able to successfully run the Linux DMA software as mentioned in "AN 829: PCI Express Avalon -MM DMA Reference Design" document.

    Regards,
