/** @file
This file declares EFI Incompatible PCI Device Support Protocol
+ This protocol allows the PCI bus driver to support resource allocation for some PCI devices that do not comply
+ with the PCI Specification.
+ The EFI_INCOMPATIBLE_PCI_DEVICE_SUPPORT_PROTOCOL is used by the PCI bus driver
+ to support resource allocation for some PCI devices that do not comply with the PCI Specification.
+ This protocol can find some incompatible PCI devices and report their special resource
+ requirements to the PCI bus driver. The generic PCI bus driver does not have prior knowledge of
+ any incompatible PCI devices. It interfaces with the
+ EFI_INCOMPATIBLE_PCI_DEVICE_SUPPORT_PROTOCOL to find out if a device is
+ incompatible and to obtain the special configuration requirements for a specific incompatible PCI
+ device.
+ This protocol is optional, and only one instance of this protocol can be present in the system. If a
+ platform supports this protocol, this protocol is produced by a Driver Execution Environment
+ (DXE) driver and must be made available before the Boot Device Selection (BDS) phase. The PCI
+ bus driver will look for the presence of this protocol before it begins PCI enumeration.
