6.3. Power Management
Software programs the Device into a D-state by writing to the Power Management Control and Status register in the PCI Power Management Capability Structure. The pm_* interface transmits the D-state to the Application Layer.
The Intel L-/H-Tile Avalon-ST for PCI Express IP and the Intel L-/H-Tile Avalon-MM for PCI Express IP do not support the L1 or L2 low power states. If the link ever gets into these states, performing a reset (by asserting pin_perst, for example) will allow the IP core to exit the low power state and the system to recover.
These IP cores also do not support the in-band beacon or sideband WAKE# signal, which are mechanisms to signal a wake-up event to the upstream device.
