Comment (by JordanCrouse):

 Replying to [comment:10 wmb at firmworks.com]:
 > The core of the problem, as I see it, is that the configurability of
 this chipset challenges the ability of a human to keep track of
 everything.  There are just so many registers.  Quite a few of them (i.e.
 the PCI config registers for GX and 5536 functions) are VSA
 virtualizations.  (Is there any documentation for the virtualized
 registers, or do you just have to apply general PCI and PC legacy
 knowledge?)

 We can give you the information as to what each PCI device is - and what
 the BARs point to.  The rest of config space is standard for the device it
 represents (The only one that might be weird is IDE, and we don't use that
 anyway).
