Platform Designer - A10 PCIe SR-IOV Won't run at 8Gbps when SR-IOV is enabled.

My update 12/05/18 (pasted but edited from our other thread)

Having at least one VF when using the SR-IOV core should have nothing to do with link-speed, and I was successful building a core with 0-VFs (no error - I can't remember if it was the BARs that I needed to disable to get that error you get to go away - if I remember I'll post it).

Solution/Answer: I spent the day changing parameters and have found how to link at 8Gbps. In the "Parameters" settings tab, under the "PHY Characteristics" tab I first enabled the "Soft DFE" thinking that would help and it didn't (but I left it selected). I then checked the "Enable RX polarity inversion soft logic" box and enabled that. That was the answer, I successfully linked at 8Gbps. I then built again turning that polarity inversion off and I could only link at 5Gbps. So, there is something about the SR-IOV wrapper that makes the link bring-up different.
