Thanks
makes sense.
now, imagine someone building a new device. if existing drivers are not
a concern, it is possible to move capabilities all to extended space. is
that possible while keeping the bios working?
unlikely as bios is looking in the legacy section.
New capabilities like legacy (and pasid) has no backward compat
requirement from bios and drivers.
so they can start from new.
