Re: Doubt on first access for PCIe device

[abhijit]

Hi Lorenzo,

I think, you are referring to statement,

"The Completion ID field is not meaningful prior to the software 
initialization and configuration of the completing device (using at 
least one Configuration Write Request), and for this case the
Requester must ignore the value returned in the Completer ID field."

Actually one of experimental Endpoint function IP that we are using is 
not responding for configuration request if Requester ID and Completion 
ID are same even during configuration phase. So wanted to cross-check 
whether we are missing out something.

It seems that behavior of endpoint IP is not correct.

Thank you very much for all your time and patience :)

Regards,
    Abhijit
