BTW: Do you see the same problems (PCIe memory read timeout) under Linux?

If PCIe works on Glacier and fails on your custom board it may be a hardware 
related problem on your board (either board routing or endpoint etc). Are you 
sure that your FPGA based PCIe endpoint is working correctly? Can you "plug" 
a standard PCIe endpoint in your custom hardware?
