+====================
+QEMU PCI test device
+====================
+
+``pci-testdev`` is a device used for testing low level IO.
+
+The device implements up to three BARs: BAR0, BAR1 and BAR2.
+Each of BAR 0+1 can be memory or IO. Guests must detect
+BAR types and act accordingly.
+
+BAR 0+1 size is up to 4K bytes each.
+BAR 0+1 starts with the following header:

+
