PCICONFIG_READ(2)                                                       Linux Programmer's Manual                                                      PCICONFIG_READ(2)

NAME
       pciconfig_read, pciconfig_write, pciconfig_iobase - pci device information handling

SYNOPSIS
       #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
       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  cy‐
              cles, or the ISA holes if any.

RETURN VALUE
       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
       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().

CONFORMING TO
       These calls are Linux-specific, available since Linux 2.0.26/2.1.11.
