Its docs for the new sun4v arch, specifically so people can port operating systems to it. Operating systems run on the hypervisor, not on the hardware. http://opensparc.sunsource.net/specs/Hypervisor-api-current-draft.pdf That includes "PCI I/O Services", so its definately more than just CPU info. The Sun people are under the impression that the docs up there are everything that's needed to port an OS, so if there's something missing, tell us specifically what it is so we can get on Sun's case about it.
