+Driver for PCI Endpoint Test Function
+
+This driver should be used as a host side driver if the root complex is
+connected to a configurable PCI endpoint running *pci_epf_test* function
+driver configured according to [1].
+
+The "pci_endpoint_test" driver can be used to perform the following tests.
+
+The PCI driver for the test device performs the following tests
+ *) verifying addresses programmed in BAR
+ *) raise legacy IRQ
+ *) raise MSI IRQ
+ *) read data
+ *) write data
+ *) copy data
+
+This misc driver creates /dev/pci-endpoint-test.<num> for every
+*pci_epf_test* function connected to the root complex and "ioctls"
+should be used to perform the above tests.
+

+ PCITEST_BAR: Tests the BAR. The number of the BAR to be tested
+ should be passed as argument.
+ PCITEST_LEGACY_IRQ: Tests legacy IRQ
+ PCITEST_MSI: Tests message signalled interrupts. The MSI number
+ to be tested should be passed as argument.
+ PCITEST_WRITE: Perform write tests. The size of the buffer should be passed
+ as argument.
+ PCITEST_READ: Perform read tests. The size of the buffer should be passed
+ as argument.
+ PCITEST_COPY: Perform read tests. The size of the buffer should be passed
