Xilinx zc706 board PCIe win driver - windows

where can i find windows driver for pcie connection of xilinx fpga board?
I designed block diagram for PCIe but I can't see device manager in computer. I take error from computer that Error [Code10] or Error [Code52].

PCIe DMA problems in ARM Machines

I'm trying to write a PCIe driver for an ARM machine (Cavium ThunderX2). I'm working with Xilinx Alveo FPGAs. Our work involves migrating pages between heterogeneous nodes (x86 and ARM) and the driver takes care of the DMA between the host and the FPGA, and handles the device interrupts.
The DMA doesn't work (From Device/To Device) and I get "ARM SMMU v3.x 0x10 event occurred" errors. I tried disabling the SMMU (recommended by some threads in the NVIDIA community - https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/how-dma-works-in-arm-the-dma-stopped-working-with-our-pci-driver/53699), but that leads to a protection issue ("RAS Controller stopped"), and the system hangs.
I use dma_map_single APIs from dma-mapping.h to convert the virtual address to a DMA-capable bus address. Would dma_alloc_coherent make a difference? (Of course, I'll try this out)
I'm unable to figure out the problem. Is this is a PCIe driver issue or an issue with the device or is there a fix/patch available for ARM PCIe DMA ops? Any help would be appreciated!!
Thanks,
Narayan

Lattice iCE40 JTAG

I am new to FPGA and I am trying to get a working JTAG setup on Lattice iCE40 FPGA.
The board I'm using is from Olimex and has iCE40-HX8K FPGA.
I'm using urjtag as PC application and tried with DirtJTAG and USB Blaster clones as programmer (flashed onto STM32 BluePill board).
Olimex board didn't have populated pull-up resistors for JTAG so I soldered them (10k for TMS, TDI and TCK).
But the end result is the same: I cannot get jtag to recognize FPGA, the error is:
jtag> cable UsbBlaster
Connected to libftdi driver.
jtag> detect
warning: TDO seems to be stuck at 1
Checked pinout of the JTAG connector and it's correct. Multimeter tests show that there is no short-circuit, no solder bridges, pullups are correct value and working and as expceted.
Tried my setup with Altera FPGA board and it's working, it will detect the FPGA.
Also, tried eBay UsbBlaster clone and it's not working on iCE40, but works for Altera FPGA.
I can flash the external flash (with other tools and programmer), but I want to be able to use JTAG so I can flash onboard SRAM instead.
Any ideas/hints what might be wrong/what to try next?
iCE40 FPGAs do not have a JTAG interface.

Failed to open JTAG cable

I'm using an Atlys Spartan-6 xc6slx45 board. I am unable to burn the bit file using SDK. When I try to program FPGA it shows these errors:
Program FPGA failed
Connection to Board Failed
Failed to Open JTAG Cable
Cable target is not connected to the host
However I connected the 2 USB cables (one of the program and other of the adept USB port J17). Should I connect THE J10 also?

Use of xHCI driver and USB_STORAGE driver

I'm currently learning driver programming and am at very nascent stage. I'm unable to get the difference of use of xHCI, EHCI, or OHCI drivers and usb_storage.
When I plug my USB device (pen drive) and observe dmesg output, it says that my device is using the ehci driver, but my device stops working when I rmmod usb_storage.
There are many drivers for different kind of USB devices let it be mouse, keyboard, camera, etc.
As of now, I assume that the xHCI driver is for USB host and the other driver is for the device we connect to our USB host. Am I correct? If not, what is the explanation?
*HCI are specifications of USB hosts:
xHCI - for USB 3.0
EHCI - for USB 2.0
OHCI and UHCI - for USB 1.x
usb_storage is a upper level driver working on the USB host side, and it is responsible for communication only with USB storage devices, not keyboard, mouse, etc.
The USB is maintained in form of a stack and *hci drivers are the lowest level in that stack. usb-storage and other drivers are located on a higher level of this stack.

how linux kernel detects power over ethernet (PoE)

I want to capture a signal in the kernel when it detects power over ethernet is connected.
I don't have gpios to do this business.
I am working on the atheros chipset based access point. It has Realtek RTL8363SB ethernet module. Is there any mechanism/interrupt/signal/api in kernel which detects from where it is getting power?
I have enabled CONFIG_POWER_SUPPLY while building kernel V 2.6.36
Thanks.
