no problem,

That's correct. This root port returns ~0 when destination is unreachable.

That's right, CRS visibility is supported and enabled. Root port returns
0xFFFF0001 when vendor ID is read as per the spec.

This version of the root port doesn't support retry mechanism. This is a
TO-DO for the hardware team. This root port returns ~0 for all accesses
other than vendor id. This means we waited 1 seconds and the device
was not accessible. Command register was not reachable at the end of
1 seconds.

See above.

This is what is missing from the HW. I'm trying to get this corrected
to be complete.

I saw your comment about timeout. I was trying not to change the behavior
for systems that do not support CRS visibility. we can certainly increase
the timeout if you think it is better.

I saw your V11, I'll review them in a minute.
