[coreboot] .cb files

[ali hagigat]

Peter,
Thank you. So devicetree.cb files are written by hand and the
compilation process does not use them? They are just some information
for the developers?
About:
file:///root/build/coreboot/coreboot-v4/src/mainboard/kontron/986lcd-m/devicetree.cb:
#device pci 1e.2 off end # AC'97 Audio
It means that AC'97 Audio is on Bus#=1 and Function#=2?
But all the devices of the south bridge, ICH7 are on Bus number 0, as
far as I know.
Why you have not written, Bus number, Function number, Device number,
Register number clearly.
device pci 1d.0 on end, What does it mean, 1d.0?
Regards
