2.4. PIPE Direct Mode

In PIPE Direct mode, application logic is responsible for implementing the Transaction Layer, Data Link Layer and the MAC (including the 8b/10b, 128b/130b Encoder/Decoder, Elastic Buffer, etc.) in your application logic in the FPGA fabric. Only the PHY layer inside the R-tile IP for PCIe is active as shown in the following figure.

Note: When implementing a Soft IP Controller using the R-tile IP for PCI Express in PIPE Direct mode, the FPGA device must be fully configured in order to start the link training sequence since the Controller is in the FPGA fabric.
