Description
- Problem Statement: 

    Cheat Sheet: Non-Cacheable Address Space

- Symptoms:

    Various messages and/or dump output may refer to a physical
    address in the system (i.e., AFAR registers).
            

SOLUTION SUMMARY:
- Troubleshooting:

    The overview of the non-cacheable address spaces is:

       WCI-to-WCI transfers *       000 0000 0000 - 3ff ffff ffff
       Device Config Area           400 0000 0000 - 401 ffff ffff
       PCI Config & I/O             402 0000 0000 - 403 ffff ffff
       General IO or WCI area       404 0000 0000 - 7ff efff ffff
       Bootbus space                7ff f000 0000 - 7ff ffff ffff
                                  
        Used with transactions RIO, WIO, RBIO, and WBIO
        * WCI uses a cacheable range, but under non-cacheable transactions.

    The following breakdowns cover each address range in more detail.
