PDC_SYSTEM_MAP is Hversion specific. I do know it's documented in the
various firmware ERS's. I'm not aware those have been published yet.
Strike one. :^(

[ However, I see no reason why HP wouldn't allow firmware ERS's 
  for "legacy" platforms to be published. Cost/time to review/santize
  might be the only reason. And while a few of the ERS's are not very good
  (ie incomplete), still better than nothing. ]

It seems HP published key parts of the "I/O Architecture Control Document":
	http://devresource.hp.com/devresource/Docs/DocLib_Refs.html#archrefs

as "Part 2: Processor Dependent Code Procedures" (PDC.pdf). And those are
probably on parisc-linux Documentation website as well.
But as Xavier noted above, while mentioned, PDC_SYSTEM_MAP is not actually
documented in the PDC.pdf. :^(  Strike two.

PDC_SYSTEM_MAP is documented on page 467 (of 646) in the ioacd_v096.pdf.
I'll ask the owners of ioacd if "common" Hversion PDC calls could
be published as well. This might take a while though. :^(
I hope they were not intentionally excluded for some sane reason.
