dma-perf can only get half of the bandwidth of a x8 PCIe Gen 5 card. Any suggestions? #273

Running dma-perf with c2h/h2c/bi directions on a x8 PCIe Gen 5 card, but we can only get to half (~14GB/s) of limitation of the card's bandwidth (~32GB/s in theory). Below is a table of config file contents and test results:

We also noticed that with the following register writing sequence, the bandwidth of dma-perf may reach ~26GB/s, with offset_ch1=0x60000000000, but we don't understand the register settings:
