Are you running any PCIe traffic test when the error happens? I will try to reproduce the issue with my Mustang board as well. And it will be useful if you can share your "lspci -vvv" output when the board is running, we can check to see if there is any error status reported. -- Regards, Duc Dang. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
