pciconfig_read(2)          System Calls Manual         pciconfig_read(2)

NAME         top

       pciconfig_read, pciconfig_write, pciconfig_iobase - pci device
       information handling

LIBRARY         top

       Standard C library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <pci.h>

       int pciconfig_read(unsigned long bus, unsigned long dfn,
                          unsigned long off, unsigned long len,
                          unsigned char *buf);
       int pciconfig_write(unsigned long bus, unsigned long dfn,
                          unsigned long off, unsigned long len,
                          unsigned char *buf);
       int pciconfig_iobase(int which, unsigned long bus,
                          unsigned long devfn);

DESCRIPTION         top

       Most of the interaction with PCI devices is already handled by
       the kernel PCI layer, and thus these calls should not normally
       need to be accessed from user space.

       pciconfig_read()
              Reads to buf from device dev at offset off value.

       pciconfig_write()
              Writes from buf to device dev at offset off value.

       pciconfig_iobase()
              You pass it a bus/devfn pair and get a physical address
              for either the memory offset (for things like prep, this
              is 0xc0000000), the IO base for PIO cycles, or the ISA
              holes if any.

RETURN VALUE         top

       pciconfig_read()
              On success, zero is returned.  On error, -1 is returned
              and errno is set to indicate the error.

       pciconfig_write()
              On success, zero is returned.  On error, -1 is returned
              and errno is set to indicate the error.

       pciconfig_iobase()
              Returns information on locations of various I/O regions in
              physical memory according to the which value.  Values for
              which are: IOBASE_BRIDGE_NUMBER, IOBASE_MEMORY, IOBASE_IO,
              IOBASE_ISA_IO, IOBASE_ISA_MEM.

ERRORS         top

       EINVAL len value is invalid.  This does not apply to
              pciconfig_iobase().

       EIO    I/O error.

       ENODEV For pciconfig_iobase(), "hose" value is NULL.  For the
              other calls, could not find a slot.

       ENOSYS The system has not implemented these calls (CONFIG_PCI not
              defined).

       EOPNOTSUPP
              This return value is valid only for pciconfig_iobase().
              It is returned if the value for which is invalid.

       EPERM  User does not have the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability.  This
              does not apply to pciconfig_iobase().
