The Compliance Work Group recently completed the [OpenPOWER I/O Design Architecture, version 3 (IODA3) Compliance Test Harness and Test Suite (TH/TS) Specification](https://openpowerfoundation.org/?resource_lib=i-o-design-architecture-ioda3-compliance-test-harness-and-test-suite-th-ts-review-draft). The input to the compliance specification is the [OpenPOWER I/O Design Architecture, version 3 (IODA3) Specification](https://openpowerfoundation.org/?resource_lib=openpower-io-design-architecture-ioda-specification-review-draft) which describes the chip architecture for key aspects of PCI Express® (PCIe)-based host bridge (PHB) designs for POWER9™ systems. This specification defines the PHB hardware and firmware requirements for the functions shown in the following diagram.

The purpose of the OpenPOWER IODA3 Compliance TH/TS Specification is to provide the test suite requirements to be able to demonstrate OpenPOWER IODA3 compliance for POWER9™ systems. It describes the required and optional tests needed in the test suite to ensure compliance and compatibility for each of the functions in the previous diagram.
