Hi,

that link you provided looks pretty ancient -- the document is dated Jan
2008! There's a lot of much more recent documentation at

* https://01.org/linuxgraphics/documentation

including some Haswell-specific files at:

*
https://01.org/linuxgraphics/documentation/2013-intel-core-processor-family

If you are trying to diagnose a GPU hang, these may be useful:

* https://01.org/linuxgraphics/documentation/how-get-gpu-error-state
* https://01.org/linuxgraphics/documentation/intel-gpu-dump-tool-guide

Hope this helps,
.Dave.
