61	  <para>
62		RapidIO is a high speed switched fabric interconnect with
63		features aimed at the embedded market.  RapidIO provides
64		support for memory-mapped I/O as well as message-based
65		transactions over the switched fabric network. RapidIO has
66		a standardized discovery mechanism not unlike the PCI bus
67		standard that allows simple detection of devices in a
68		network.

71	  	This documentation is provided for developers intending
72		to support RapidIO on new architectures, write new drivers,
