<title>Introduction</title>
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

This documentation is provided for developers intending
72
to support RapidIO on new architectures, write new drivers,
73
or to understand the subsystem internals.
