Issue HSD-ES Found In Status
When you enable address byte aligned transfers, you may observe a DMA failure for lower payload sizes on the AXI interface. 16023190098 24.1 Byte aligned access is not supported. Address should be aligned to the data width.

A fix is planned for a future release.
Timing failures are observed for the Gen5 1x16 1024-bit data width variant. 16026042010 24.3.1 Fixed in 25.1.
A Virtual Function DMA with MSIX enabled gets stuck. 16024369928 24.2 A fix is planned for a future release.
You may observe timing violations (e.g., setup, minimum pulse width) when the BAS is enabled. 16026825200 25.1 A fix is planned for a future release.
You may observe the AXI-MM DMA being stuck, and a Queue reset failure, during a hardware test. 16024808887 24.3 A fix is planned for a future release.
A BAS data validation failure is observed in BAM+BAS+MCDMA mode using the AXI-MM interface during a hardware test. 16026624756 25.1 A fix is planned for a future release.
IP upgrades from v24.1 to v25.1, and from v24.2 to v25.1, will fail. 16027079112 25.1 A fix is planned for a future release.
