sb0_florent_: litepcie is just a thin wrapper around the vendor proprietary IP, and there is currently no open source PCIe core that contains the full stack, correct?08:52
_florent_sb0: LitePCIe provides a MMAP/DMA core around the integrated PCIe hard block, so it's not handling the lower layers of PCIe and start operating at the TLP layer.09:55
_florent_so the goals are similar to Xillibus, RIFFA, etc... so it's indeed a thin wrapper in a similar way a USB3 Core is a thin wrapper around a USB3 PIPE, just a matter of connecting wires together :)10:08
_florent_i'm not aware of an open source PCIe PHY, but there is a current GSoC project on that10:09

sorearoh good, the existing work is being used as a base10:17
_florent_yes, from what i understand, it has been converted from Migen to nMigen and will now go further10:18
zyphmm, apparently the cle-215 heatsink is glued to the fpga?10:28
_florent_zyp: i haven't tried personnally but it seems others have been able to remove the heatsink without damaging the FPGA: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/fpga/sqrl-acorn-as-an-interesting-artix-7-board/msg3053338/#msg305333810:37

daddesioECP5-5G doesn't have PCIe/DDR/USB hard blocks, right? it's just soft cores built atop the SERDES?19:42
daveshahYes, although DDR doesn't use the SERDES it uses the gearbox19:42
daveshahSERDES in ECP5 is the high speed 5Gbps thingy, not the thing that is on every IO pin19:42
