Boot BIOS Straps (BBS): This field determines the destination of accesses to the
BIOS memory range. The default values for these bits represent the strap values of
GNT5#/GPIO17 (bit 11) and GNT4#/GPIO48 (bit 10) (active-high logic levels) at the
rising edge of PWROK.
When PCI is selected, the top 16 MB of memory below 4 GB (FF00_0000h to
FFFF_FFFFh) is accepted by the primary side of the PCI-to-PCI bridge and forwarded
to the PCI bus. This allows systems with corrupted or unprogrammed flash to boot
from a PCI device. The PCI-to-PCI bridge Memory Space Enable bit does not need to
be set (nor any other bits) for these cycles to go to PCI. Note that BIOS decode range
bits and the other BIOS protection bits have no effect when PCI is selected.
When SPI or LPC is selected, the range that is decoded is further qualified by other
configuration bits described in the respective sections.
The value in this field can be overwritten by software as long as the BIOS Interface
Lock-Down (bit 0) is not set.

reset occurs. This prevents rogue software from changing the default state of
the PATA pins during boot after BIOS configures them. This bit is write once, and
is cleared by system reset and when returning from the S3/S4/S5 states.
