+.SH BUGS
+
+Sometimes, lspci is not able to decode the configuration registers completely.
+This usually happens when not enough documentation was available to the authors.
+In such cases, it at least prints the
+.B <?>
+mark to signal that there is potentially something more to say. If you know
+the details, patches will be of course welcome.
+
+Access to the extended configuration space is currently supported only by the
+.B linux_sysfs
+back-end.
