Is there any specific reason why you are enabling ASPM? Is this system
a laptop where you are trying to conserve power when on battery? If
not disabling it probably won't hurt things too much since the power
consumption for a 2.5GT/s link operating in a width of one shouldn't
bee too high. Otherwise you are likely going to end up paying the
price for getting the interface out of L1 when the traffic goes idle
so you are going to see flows that get bursty paying a heavy penalty
when they start dropping packets.

It is also possible this could be something that changed with the
physical PCIe link. Basically L1 works by powering down the link when
idle, and then powering it back up when there is activity. The problem
is bringing it back up can sometimes be a challenge when the physical
link starts to go faulty. I know I have seen that in some cases it can
even result in the device falling off of the PCIe bus if the link
training fails.

Okay, so this result still has the same length and checksum errors,
were you resetting the system/statistics between runs?
