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

NAME
       pciconfig_read, pciconfig_write, pciconfig_iobase - pci device informa‐
       tion handling

SYNOPSIS
       #include <pci.h>

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

DESCRIPTION
       Most of the interaction with PCI devices is already handled by the ker‐
       nel  PCI	 layer,	 and  thus  these calls should not normally need to be
       accessed from userspace.

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

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

       pciconfig_iobase()
	      Returns information on locations of various I/O regions in phys‐
	      ical 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 pci_iobase.

       EIO    I/O error.

       ENODEV For pci_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 only valid for pci_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 pci_iobase.

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