SYNOPSIS
pcictl |
pcibus command [arg [...]] |
DESCRIPTION
pcictl
allows a user or system administrator to access
various resources on a PCI bus.
The following commands are available:
list
[-Nn
]
[-b
bus]
[-d
device]
[-f
function]
List the devices in the PCI domain, either as names or, if
-n
is given, as numbers. The bus, device, and
function numbers may be specified by flags. Any locator not specified
defaults to a wildcard, or may be explicitly wildcarded by specifying
“any”. If -N
is given, the driver name
for this PCI device will be listed if any driver is attached.
dump
[-b
bus] -d
device [-f
function]
Dump the PCI configuration space for the specified device located at the specified bus, device, and function. If the bus is not specified, it defaults to the bus number of the PCI bus specified on the command line. If the function is not specified, it defaults to 0.
read
[-b
bus] -d
device [-f
function] reg
Read the specified 32-bit aligned PCI configuration register and print it in hexadecimal to standard output. If the bus is not specified, it defaults to the bus number of the PCI bus specified on the command line. If the function is not specified, it defaults to 0.
WARNING: pcictl
read
is a dangerous command that can damage hardware
and panic the operating system, even though it appears to be a harmless
read-only operation. It is meant as a diagnostic tool for experiments or to
debug device drivers. Do not use it as a substitute for a device driver!
write
[-b
bus] -d
device [-f
function] reg
value
Write the specified value to the specified 32-bit aligned PCI configuration register. If the bus is not specified, it defaults to the bus number of the PCI bus specified on the command line. If the function is not specified, it defaults to 0.
WARNING: pcictl
write
is a dangerous command that can damage
hardware and panic the operating system. It is meant as a diagnostic tool
for experiments or to debug device drivers. Do not use it as a substitute
for a device driver!
