29.Dt PCICONF 8
30.Os
31.Sh NAME
32.Nm pciconf
33.Nd diagnostic utility for the PCI bus
34.Sh SYNOPSIS
35.Nm
36.Fl l Op Fl cv
37.Nm
38.Fl a Ar selector
39.Nm
40.Fl r Oo Fl b | h Oc Ar selector addr Ns Op : Ns Ar addr2
41.Nm
42.Fl w Oo Fl b | h Oc Ar selector addr value
43.Sh DESCRIPTION
44The
45.Nm
46utility provides a command line interface to functionality provided by the
47.Xr pci 4
48.Xr ioctl 2
49interface.
50As such, some of the functions are only available to users with write
51access to
52.Pa /dev/pci ,
53normally only the super-user.
54.Pp
55With the
56.Fl l
57option, it lists all devices found by the boot probe in the following format:
58.Bd -literal
59foo0@pci0:0:4:0: class=0x010000 card=0x00000000 chip=0x000f1000 rev=0x01 \
60hdr=0x00
61bar0@pci0:0:5:0: class=0x000100 card=0x00000000 chip=0x88c15333 rev=0x00 \
62hdr=0x00
63none0@pci0:0:6:0: class=0x020000 card=0x00000000 chip=0x802910ec rev=0x00 \
64hdr=0x00
65.Ed
66.Pp
67The first column gives the
68device name, unit number, and
69.Ar selector .
70If there is no device configured in the kernel for the
71.Tn PCI
72device in question, the device name will be
73.Dq none .
74Unit numbers for unconfigured devices start at zero and are incremented for
75each unconfigured device that is encountered.
76The
77.Ar selector
78is in a form which may directly be used for the other forms of the command.
79The second column is the class code, with the class byte printed as two
80hex digits, followed by the sub-class and the interface bytes.
81The third column gives the contents of the subvendorid register, introduced
82in revision 2.1 of the
83.Tn PCI
84standard.
85Note that it will be 0 for older cards.
86The field consists of the card ID in the upper
87half and the card vendor ID in the lower half of the value.
88.Pp
89The fourth column contains the chip device ID, which identifies the chip
90this card is based on.
91It consists of two fields, identifying the chip and
92its vendor, as above.
93The fifth column prints the chip's revision.
94The sixth column describes the header type.
95Currently assigned header types include 0 for most devices,
961 for
97.Tn PCI
98to
99.Tn PCI
100bridges, and 2 for
101.Tn PCI
102to
103.Tn CardBus
104bridges.
105If the most significant bit
106of the header type register is set for
107function 0 of a
108.Tn PCI
109device, it is a
110.Em multi-function
111device, which contains several (similar or independent) functions on
112one chip.
113.Pp
114If the
115.Fl c
116option is supplied,
117.Nm
118will list any capabilities supported by each device.
119Each capability will be enumerated via a line in the following format:
120.Bd -literal
121    cap 10[40] = PCI-Express 1 root port
122.Ed
123.Pp
124The first value after the
125.Dq Li cap
126prefix is the capability ID in hexadecimal.
127The second value in the square brackets is the offset of the capability
128in config space in hexadecimal.
129The format of the text after the equals sign is capability-specific.
130.Pp
131If the
132.Fl v
133option is supplied,
134.Nm
135will attempt to load the vendor/device information database, and print
136vendor, device, class and subclass identification strings for each device.
137.Pp
138All invocations of
139.Nm
140except for
141.Fl l
142require a
143.Ar selector
144of the form
145.Li pci Ns Va domain Ns \&: Ns Va bus Ns \&: Ns Va device Ns \&: \
146Ns Va function Ns ,
147.Li pci Ns Va bus Ns \&: Ns Va device Ns \&: Ns Va function Ns , or
148.Li pci Ns Va bus Ns \&: Ns Va device Ns .
149In case of an abrigded form, omitted selector components are assumed to be 0.
150An optional leading device name followed by @ and an optional final colon
151will be ignored; this is so that the first column in the output of
152.Nm
153.Fl l
154can be used without modification.
155All numbers are base 10.
156.Pp
157With the
158.Fl a
159flag,
160.Nm
161determines whether any driver has been assigned to the device
162identified by
163.Ar selector .
164An exit status of zero indicates that the device has a driver;
165non-zero indicates that it does not.
166.Pp
167The
168.Fl r
169option reads a configuration space register at byte offset
170.Ar addr
171of device
172.Ar selector
173and prints out its value in hexadecimal.
174The optional second address
175.Ar addr2
176specifies a range to read.
177The
178.Fl w
179option writes the
180.Ar value
181into a configuration space register at byte offset
182.Ar addr
183of device
184.Ar selector .
185For both operations, the flags
186.Fl b
187and
188.Fl h
189select the width of the operation;
190.Fl b
191indicates a byte operation, and
192.Fl h
193indicates a halfword (two-byte) operation.
194The default is to read or
195write a longword (four bytes).
196.Sh ENVIRONMENT
197The PCI vendor/device information database is normally read from
198.Pa /usr/share/misc/pci_vendors .
199This path can be overridden by setting the environment variable
200.Ev PCICONF_VENDOR_DATABASE .

206.Sh HISTORY
207The
208.Nm
209utility appeared first in
210.Fx 2.2 .
211The
212.Fl a
213option was added for
214.Tn PCI
215KLD support in
216.Fx 3.0 .
217.Sh AUTHORS
218.An -nosplit
219The
220.Nm
221utility was written by
222.An Stefan Esser
223and
224.An Garrett Wollman .
225.Sh BUGS
226The
227.Fl b
228and
229.Fl h
230options are implemented in
231.Nm ,
232but not in the underlying
233.Xr ioctl 2 .
234.Pp
235It might be useful to give non-root users access to the
236.Fl a
237and
238.Fl r
239options.
240But only root will be able to execute a
241.Nm kldload
242to provide the device with a driver KLD, and reading of configuration space
243registers may cause a failure in badly designed
244.Tn PCI
245chips.
