I'm guessing maybe not because apparently there is a > risk of running out of LUT entries? It is not good idea to depend on boot loader so much. Some hot plug devics (SD7.0) may plug after system boot. Two PCIe instances shared one set of 6bits stream id (total 64). Assume total 16 assign to two PCIe controllers. each have 8 stream id. If use uboot assign it static, each PCIe controller have below 8 devices. It will be failrue one controller connect 7, another connect 9. but if dynamtic alloc when devices add, both controller can work. Although we have not so much devices now, this way give us possility to improve it in future. > > It sounds like the consequences of running out of LUT entries are > catastrophic, e.g., memory corruption from mis-directed DMA?
