On the AMD site [1] I see the three family 0x17 documents below.

1.  Open-Source Register Reference for AMD Family 17h Processors (PUB)
2.  Processor Programming Reference (PPR) for AMD Family 17h Models 00h-0Fh Processors (PUB)
3.  Software Optimization Guide for AMD Family 17h Processors (PUB)

What documented is required? The BKDG?
