+ * SMN accesses may fail in ways that are difficult to detect here in the called
+ * functions smn_read() and smn_write(). Therefore, callers of these functions
+ * must do their own checking based on what behavior they expect.
+ *
+ * For SMN reads, the returned SMN value may be zero if the register is
+ * Read-as-Zero . Or it may be a "PCI Error Response", e.g. all 0xFFs. The "PCI
+ * Error Response" can be checked here, and a proper error code can be returned.
+ * But the Read-as-Zero response cannot be verified here. A value of 0 may be
+ * correct in some cases, so callers must check that this correct is for the
+ * register/fields they need.
+ *
+ * For SMN writes, success can be determined through a "write and read back"
+ * procedure. However, this is not robust when done here.
+ *
+ * Possible issues:
+ * 1) Bits that are "Write-1-to-Clear". In this case, the read value should
+ * *not* match the write value.
+ * 2) Bits that are "Read-as-Zero"/"Writes-Ignored". This information cannot be
+ * known here.
+ * 3) Bits that are "Reserved / Set to 1". Ditto above.
+ *
+ * Callers of amd_smn_write() should do the "write and read back" check themselves,
+ * if needed.
+ *
+ * For #1, they can see if their target bits got cleared.
+ *
+ * For #2 and #3, they can check if their target bits got set as intended.
+ *
+ * This matches what is done for rdmsr/wrmsr. As long as there's no #GP, then
+ * the operation is considered a success, and the caller does their own checking.
