DESCRIPTION

With the -l option, pciconf lists PCI devices in the following format:

foo0@pci0:0:4:0: class=0x010000 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x1000 device=0x000f subvendor=0x0000 subdevice=0x0000
bar0@pci0:0:5:0: class=0x000100 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x88c1 device=0x5333 subvendor=0x0000 subdevice=0x0000
none0@pci0:0:6:0: class=0x020000 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x10ec device=0x8029 subvendor=0x0000 subdevice=0x0000

The first column gives the driver name, unit number, and selector. If there is no driver attached to the PCI device in question, the driver name will be “none”. Unit numbers for detached devices start at zero and are incremented for each detached device that is encountered. The selector is in a form which may directly be used for the other forms of the command. The second column is the class code, with the class byte printed as two hex digits, followed by the sub-class and the interface bytes. The third column prints the device's revision. The fourth column describes the header type.

Currently assigned header types include 0 for standard devices, 1 for PCI to PCI bridges, and 2 for PCI to CardBus bridges. If the most significant bit of the header type register is set for function 0 of a PCI device, it is a multi-function device, which contains several (similar or independent) functions on one chip.

The sixth and seventh columns contain the vendor ID and the device ID of the device. The eigth and ninth columns contain subvendor and subdevice IDs, introduced in revision 2.1 of the PCI standard. Note that they will be 0 for older cards.

Adding a second -l option causes output to be in a compact columnar format, suitable for 80 column output:

drv     selector        class   rev hdr vendor device subven subdev
foo0@pci0:0:4:0:        010000  01  00  1000   000f   0000   0000
bar0@pci0:0:5:0:        000100  00  00  88c1   5333   0000   0000
none0@pci0:0:6:0:       020000  00  00  10ec   8029   0000   0000

All fields retain the same definition as with the non-compact form.

If the -B option is supplied, pciconf will list additional information for PCI to PCI and PCI to CardBus bridges, specifically the resource ranges decoded by the bridge for use by devices behind the bridge. Each bridge lists a range of bus numbers handled by the bridge and its downstream devices. Memory and I/O port decoding windows are enumerated via a line in the following format:

    window[1c] = type I/O Port, range 16, addr 0x5000-0x8fff, enabled

The first value after the “window” prefix in the square brackets is the offset of the decoding window in config space in hexadecimal. The type of a window is one of “Memory”, “Prefetchable Memory”, or “I/O Port”. The range indicates the binary log of the maximum address the window decodes. The address field indicates the start and end addresses of the decoded range. Finally, the last flag indicates if the window is enabled or disabled.

If the -b option is supplied, pciconf will list any base address registers (BARs) that are assigned resources for each device. Each BAR will be enumerated via a line in the following format:

    bar   [10] = type Memory, range 32, base 0xda060000, size 131072, enabled

The first value after the “bar” prefix in the square brackets is the offset of the BAR in config space in hexadecimal. The type of a BAR is one of “Memory”, “Prefetchable Memory”, or “I/O Port”. The range indicates the binary log of the maximum address the BAR decodes. The base and size indicate the start and length of the BAR's address window, respectively. Finally, the last flag indicates if the BAR is enabled or disabled.

If the -c option is supplied, pciconf will list any capabilities supported by each device. A second invocation of -c will print additional data for certain capabilities. Each capability is enumerated via a line in the following format:

    cap 10[40] = PCI-Express 1 root port

The first value after the “cap” prefix is the capability ID in hexadecimal. The second value in the square brackets is the offset of the capability in config space in hexadecimal. The format of the text after the equals sign is capability-specific.

Each extended capability is enumerated via a line in a similar format:

ecap 0002[100] = VC 1 max VC0

The first value after the “ecap” prefix is the extended capability ID in hexadecimal. The second value in the square brackets is the offset of the extended capability in config space in hexadecimal. The format of the text after the equals sign is capability-specific.

If the -e option is supplied, pciconf will list any errors reported for this device in standard PCI error registers. Errors are checked for in the PCI status register, the PCI-express device status register, and the Advanced Error Reporting status registers.

If the -v option is supplied, pciconf will attempt to load the vendor/device information database, and print vendor, device, class and subclass identification strings for each device.

If the -V option is supplied, pciconf will list any vital product data (VPD) provided by each device. Each VPD keyword is enumerated via a line in the following format:

    VPD ro PN  = '110114640C0     '

The first string after the “VPD” prefix indicates if the keyword is read-only “ro” or read-write “rw”. The second string provides the keyword name. The text after the equals sign lists the value of the keyword which is usually an ASCII string.

If the optional device argument is given with the -l flag, pciconf will only list details about a single device instead of all devices.

All invocations of pciconf except for -l require a device. The device can be identified either by a device name if the device is attached to a driver or by a selector. Selectors identify a PCI device by its address in PCI config space and can take one of the following forms:

• pcidomain:bus:device:function
• pcibus:device:function
• pcibus:device

In the case of an abridged form, omitted selector components are assumed to be 0. An optional leading device name followed by @ and an optional final colon will be ignored; this is so that the first column in the output of pciconf -l can be used without modification. All numbers are base 10.

With the -a flag, pciconf determines whether any driver has been assigned to the device identified by selector. An exit status of zero indicates that the device has a driver; non-zero indicates that it does not.

The -r option reads a configuration space register at byte offset addr of device selector and prints out its value in hexadecimal. The optional second address addr2 specifies a range to read. The -w option writes the value into a configuration space register at byte offset addr of device selector.

The -D option request a dump of the specified BAR. Dump is performed to the standard output, raw register values are written. Use hexdump(1) to convert them to human-readable dump, or redirect into a file to save the snapshot of the device state. Optionally, the start and count of the registers dumped can be specified, in multiple of the operation width, see next paragraph.

For read, write, and dump operations, the flags -b, -h, and -x select the width of the operation; -b indicates a byte operation, and -h indicates a halfword (two-byte) operation. -x indicates a quadword (four-byte) operation. The default is to read or write a longword (four bytes). The quadword mode is only valid for BAR dump.

BUGS

It might be useful to give non-root users access to the -a and -r options. But only root will be able to execute a kldload to provide the device with a driver KLD, and reading of configuration space registers may cause a failure in badly designed PCI chips.

There is currently no way to specify the caching mode for the mapping established by the -D option, pciconf always uses uncached access. This is fine for control register BARs.
