Yes, I saw it.

I see the status_tag is 0, at starting of ISR.
OK will try to print entire block members.

The driver is not seeing the status block mean - tg3.c driver?
Does it relates to ISR or addressing of PCIe RC driver, I'm doing
nothing on my PCIe RC driver just read the legacy INT# status and return.

Any inputs if you see it on PCIe RC, let me know.
