Documentation: PCI: Add specification for the *PCI test* function device
Add specification for the *PCI test* virtual function device. The endpoint function driver and the host PCI driver should be created based on this specification. Signed-off-by: Kishon Vijay Abraham I <kishon@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com>

+ PCI TEST
+ Kishon Vijay Abraham I <kishon@ti.com>
+
+Traditionally PCI RC has always been validated by using standard
+PCI cards like ethernet PCI cards or USB PCI cards or SATA PCI cards.
+However with the addition of EP-core in linux kernel, it is possible
+to configure a PCI controller that can operate in EP mode to work as
+a test device.
+
+The PCI endpoint test device is a virtual device (defined in software)
+used to test the endpoint functionality and serve as a sample driver
+for other PCI endpoint devices (to use the EP framework).
+
+The PCI endpoint test device has the following registers:
+
+ 1) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_MAGIC
+ 2) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_COMMAND
+ 3) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_STATUS
+ 4) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_SRC_ADDR
+ 5) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_DST_ADDR
+ 6) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_SIZE
+ 7) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_CHECKSUM
+
+*) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_MAGIC
+
+This register will be used to test BAR0. A known pattern will be written
+and read back from MAGIC register to verify BAR0.
+
+*) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_COMMAND:
+
+This register will be used by the host driver to indicate the function
+that the endpoint device must perform.
+
+Bitfield Description:
+ Bit 0 : raise legacy IRQ
+ Bit 1 : raise MSI IRQ
+ Bit 2 - 7 : MSI interrupt number
+ Bit 8 : read command (read data from RC buffer)
+ Bit 9 : write command (write data to RC buffer)
+ Bit 10 : copy command (copy data from one RC buffer to another
+ RC buffer)
+
+*) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_STATUS
+
+This register reflects the status of the PCI endpoint device.
+
+Bitfield Description:
+ Bit 0 : read success
+ Bit 1 : read fail
+ Bit 2 : write success
+ Bit 3 : write fail
+ Bit 4 : copy success
+ Bit 5 : copy fail
+ Bit 6 : IRQ raised
+ Bit 7 : source address is invalid
+ Bit 8 : destination address is invalid
+
+*) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_SRC_ADDR
+
+This register contains the source address (RC buffer address) for the
+COPY/READ command.
+
+*) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_DST_ADDR
+
+This register contains the destination address (RC buffer address) for
+the COPY/WRITE command.
