[ofa-general] PCI-Express payload

Hi,

I'm interested in computing the overhead coming from PCI-Express to an
IB HCA. Therefore I need to know the payload size of different types of
HCA.

We have InfiniHost III Mellanox cards of 4x SDR and DDR IB. According
the lspci -vvv command on SLES 10 SP1, the PCI-e payload of these cards
is maximum 128 bytes.

Can someone give my the payload size for a ConnectX 4x SDR and DDR IB
card? 

Thank you,

Koen
