+PCI devices on s390x
+====================
+
+PCI devices on s390x work differently than on other architectures and need to
+be configured in a slightly different way.
+
+Every PCI device is linked with an additional ``zpci`` device.
+While the ``zpci`` device will be autogenerated if not specified, it is
+recommended to specify it explicitly so that you can pass s390-specific
+PCI configuration.
+
+For example, in order to pass a PCI device ``0000:00:00.0`` through to the
+guest, you would specify::
+
+ qemu-system-s390x ... \
+                   -device zpci,uid=1,fid=0,target=hostdev0,id=zpci1 \
+                   -device vfio-pci,host=0000:00:00.0,id=hostdev0
+
+Here, the zpci device is joined with the PCI device via the ``target`` property.
+
+Note that we don't set bus, slot or function here for the guest as is common in
+other PCI implementations. Topology information is not available on s390x, and
+the guest will not see any of the bus, slot or function information specified
+on the command line.
+
+Instead, ``uid`` and ``fid`` determine how the device is presented to the guest
+operating system.
+
+In case of Linux, ``uid`` will be used in the ``domain`` part of the PCI
+identifier, and ``fid`` identifies the physical slot, i.e.::
+
+ qemu-system-s390x ... \
+                   -device zpci,uid=7,fid=8,target=hostdev0,id=zpci1 \
+                   ...
+
+will be presented in the guest as::
+
+ # lspci -v
+ 0007:00:00.0 ...
+ Physical Slot: 00000008
+ ...
