6 The PCI-E Non-transparent bridge hardware is a point-to-point PCI-E bus
7 connecting 2 systems. When configured, writes to the device's PCI
8 mapped memory will be mirrored to a buffer on the remote system. The
9 ntb Linux driver uses this point-to-point communication as a method to
10 transfer data from one system to the other.
