Okay, I'm new to FMA.  Solaris b44 is reporting the following error:

TIME                 UUID                                 SUNW-MSG-ID
Aug 09 10:47:31.0395 35fc7dee-e5b9-6028-d333-cbcd5a272c35 PCI-8000-7J
  100%  fault.io.pci.device-interr

        Problem in:
hc:///motherboard=0/hostbridge=0/pcibus=1/pcidev=3/pcifn=0
           Affects: dev:////pci@1f,700000/network@3
               FRU: hc:///component=MB



What I can't figure out easily is how to determine where the code that
is generating this fault resides.  I'm guessing it is in pcisch, but
honestly, I'm a bit at a loss.

Also, are there any design documents for FMA available anywhere? 
Ideally I'd like to have something both helps me figure out problems
like this (down to tracking it down to a line of code), and also gives
me information so that I know how to start adding code to inject my own
errors from the code that I've written.  (E.g. how do I play with FMA in
an unbundled NIC driver, etc.)
