I can't find MSI-X Upper adress.

Question

I can't find upper address for MSI-X.   In PCI specification: Message Control  Next Pointer  Capability ID   –  CP+00h
Message Upper Address - CP+04h
Table Offset - CP+08h
 In PCI Express compiler guide:   Table 4–14 describes the MSI-X capability structure.
0x68 Message Control  Next Cap Ptr  Capability ID
0x6C MSI-X Table Offset BIR
0x70 Pending Bit Array (PBA) Offset BIR
 Where the “Message Upper Address ”? I can't find them.   Can I use  0x058 Message Upper Address From Table 4–13. MSI Capability Structure?  I'm use Arria GXII with Hard-IP.

You write “In PCI specification” but you don’t tell us which version. Most probably, it’s not the official one.

There is a free description of msi-x (http://www.pcisig.com/specifications/conventional/msi-x_ecn.pdf) with the proper (== final!) table structure details.

Right, the table is 4 (!!) DWORD: 1 for data, 2 for address and 1 for control.
