Virtio devices are commonly implemented as PCI devices.
+A Virtio device can be implemented as any kind of PCI device:
+a Conventional PCI device, a PCI-X device or a PCI Express
+device. A Virtio device using Virtio Over PCI Bus MUST expose to
+guest an interface that meets the specification requirements of
+the appropriate PCI specification: \hyperref[intro:PCI]{[PCI]},
+\hyperref[intro:PCI-X]{[PCI-X]} and \hyperref[intro:PCIe]{[PCIe]}
+respectively. To assure designs meet the latest level
+requirements, designers of Virtio Over PCI devices must refer to
+the PCI-SIG home page at \url{http://www.pcisig.com} for any
+approved changes.
