WHQL test

["Abed Sayyad" <abed@patton.com>]

Hello all,
We're getting the following results in the WHQL NDIS/PCI test (TD-4.50 PCI
Compliance Test). It says there are three PCI 2.2 non- compliances. ( None
of them are listed as  an “acceptable failure” by the WHQL’s ERRDATA list) .

 “4.51.5 The Subsystem Vendor ID field must be ready”

 “4.51.6 The Subsystem ID field must be read only”

 “4.52.2 The Interrupt pin field must be read only”.

I'm using the Galileo GT64111 and plannig to upgrade to the GT64115. My
question is: how am I supposed to make these fields in the configuration
space read-only after I write to them in my BIOS bootup? I expect that many
people have encountered this problem and worked around it, Am I right?
