Is the answer
"All PCI buses located behind a PCI-PCI bridge must reside between the seondary
bus number and the subordinate bus number (inclusive)."
00:14.4 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 PCI to PCI Bridge
Bus: primary=00, secondary=01, subordinate=01,
sec-latency=64
So all the PCI devices between secondary (01) and subordinate (01) (in this
case same) are behind the PCI Bridge. Correct me if I am wrong.
01:05.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9/0/1 Ethernet Pro 100
(rev 0c)
As Bus ID is 01 this ethernet controller is behind the PCI Bridge
03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI
Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 06)
As Bus: 03, I can assume this is not behind the PCI Bridge
But if subordinate would have been, say 03 or 04, then even this ethernet card
(03:00:0) would be behind the PCI Bridge.
Am I correct?
Thanks and Regards,
Prasad

Oh I see, I can understand this part.

Can you please explain how did you make out the device 01:05:0 is behind the
bridge?
01:05.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9/0/1 Ethernet Pro 100
(rev 0c)
If you can explain this, I will try to find if the other network card also sits
behind the bridge or not. I would like to know the same thing for the PCIe GPU
card connected to my machine. If GPU card is also sitting behind the bridge
then the hardware may be useless for the project. :(
Please explain how to find out this information.
