Simulating communication over PCIE

Hello, I'm trying to perform some tests regarding simulation of the communication between an FPGA and an host PC over a PCIE bus. To simulate the FPGA I use ModelSim-Altera and Quartus II Lite Editi...

    Hi Luca,


    Yes, I don't think this is feasible. The existing PCIe generated testbench and BFM provides a simple method to do basic testing of the application layer logic, and this is not intended to be a substitute for a full verification environment.

    Hi,

    thank you for your reply SengKok.

    What I'm asking is to know if I can simulate a PCIE block file on the host system connected to the simulated FPGA with vsim tool. But I think that it is not possible.

    Regards,
