38 driver provides a way for userland programs to read and write
40 configuration registers.
41 It also provides a way for userland programs to get a list of all
45 devices that match various patterns.
49 driver provides a write interface for
51 configuration registers, system administrators should exercise caution when
52 granting access to the
55 If used improperly, this driver can allow userland applications to
56 crash a machine or cause data loss.
63 It enumerates any devices on the
67 client drivers the chance to attach to them.
68 It assigns resources to children, when the BIOS does not.
69 It takes care of routing interrupts when necessary.

113 structure consists of a number of fields:
114 .Bl -tag -width match_buf_len
116 The length, in bytes, of the buffer filled with user-supplied patterns.
118 The number of user-supplied patterns.
120 Pointer to a buffer filled with user-supplied patterns.
128 structure consists of the following elements:
129 .Bl -tag -width pd_vendor
132 domain, bus, slot and function.
138 device driver unit number.
149 The flags describe which of the fields the kernel should match against.
150 A device must match all specified fields in order to be returned.
151 The match flags are enumerated in the
152 .Va pci_getconf_flags

166 Buffer containing matching devices returned by the kernel.
167 The items in this buffer are of type

170 .Bl -tag -width pc_subvendor
173 domain, bus, slot and function.
197 device programming interface.
207 The offset is passed in by the user to tell the kernel where it should
208 start traversing the device list.
209 The value passed out by the kernel
210 points to the record immediately after the last one returned.
212 pass the value returned by the kernel in subsequent calls to the

218 configuration generation.
219 This value only needs to be set if the offset is set.
220 The kernel will compare the current generation number of its internal
221 device list to the generation passed in by the user to determine whether
222 its device list has changed since the user last called the
225 If the device list has changed, a status of
226 .Va PCI_GETCONF_LIST_CHANGED
229 The status tells the user the disposition of his request for a device list.
230 The possible status values are:
232 .It PCI_GETCONF_LAST_DEVICE
233 This means that there are no more devices in the PCI device list after the
237 .It PCI_GETCONF_LIST_CHANGED
238 This status tells the user that the
240 device list has changed since his last call to the
242 ioctl and he must reset the
246 to zero to start over at the beginning of the list.
247 .It PCI_GETCONF_MORE_DEVS
248 This tells the user that his buffer was not large enough to hold all of the
249 remaining devices in the device list that possibly match his criteria.
250 It is possible for this status to be returned, even when none of the remaining
251 devices in the list would match the user's criteria.
252 .It PCI_GETCONF_ERROR
253 This indicates a general error while servicing the user's request.

317 Character device for the
326 driver (not the kernel's

337 It is not possible for users to specify an accurate offset into the device
338 list without calling the
340 at least once, since they have no way of knowing the current generation
342 This probably is not a serious problem, though, since
343 users can easily narrow their search by specifying a pattern or patterns
344 for the kernel to match against.
