This one looks like it should contain enough information, but
it really is SEVERELY lacking. Many many registers, structure
definitions, etc. are missing.

And I think this one is even worse, and it is specifically for the
i82558.

I talked to an Intel developer support person who directed me to the
real documentation. It isn't generally available, and under NDA.
The real doc is much better, although very hard to follow in some
places, and incomplete in some places, but far far better than the
stuff online.
