3.9. Hard IP Reconfiguration Interface

Use this bus to dynamically modify the values of configuration registers that are read-only at run time.

The PCI Express link cannot be reset after changing the values of the read-only configuration registers of the Hard IP because the registers will be restored to their original values after reset.

The Hard IP Reconfiguration interface is not accessible when the IP is in reset (i.e, when reset_status = 1).

If the PCIe Link Inspector is enabled, accesses via the Hard IP Reconfiguration interface are not supported. The Link Inspector exclusively uses the Hard IP Reconfiguration interface, and there is no arbitration between the Link Inspector and the Hard IP Reconfiguration interface that is exported to the top level of the IP.
