65.Sh BUGS
66The hardware does not support DMA to host memory.
67.Pp
68The Prometheus does not support repeating of PCI transactions, instead if the
69PCI card demands a retry of transaction, it returns value 0xFFFFFFFF.
70This is currently not handled by the
71.Nm
72driver and will confuse some PCI card drivers.
