Re: Doubt on first access for PCIe device

[abhijit <abhijitnaik27@gmail.com>]

Hi Lorenzo,

Yes that's true..

My question is: what if EP function default completer ID means BDF has 
values = 0(meaning B = 0, D = 0, f = 0) and Root complex requester ID 
also has same BDF, that is 0.

Is that valid case as per PCIe standard, as in this case, requester ID 
and completion ID have same BDF?

Thank you very much for your replies

Regards,
     Abhijit
