Introduction to PCI Utilities

The PCI Utilities package is a set of programs for listing PCI devices, inspecting their status and setting their configuration registers.

Dependencies

Non-Multilib

Compile the package:

sed -i 's/null ;/null 2>\&1 ;/' update-pciids.sh &&
make PREFIX=/usr

Install the package

make PREFIX=/usr install

Some packages require the PCI static library. To install the library and headers, issue the following commands:

install -v -m 755 -d /usr/include/pci &&
install -v -m 644 lib/libpci.a /usr/lib &&
install -v -m 644 lib/*.h /usr/include/pci

Multilib

32Bit

Compile the package:

sed -i 's/null ;/null 2>\&1 ;/' update-pciids.sh &&
make PREFIX=/usr CC="gcc ${BUILD32}"

Install the package

make PREFIX=/usr install

Some packages require the PCI static library. To install the library and headers, issue the following commands:

install -v -m 755 -d /usr/include/pci &&
install -v -m 644 lib/libpci.a /usr/lib &&
install -v -m 644 lib/*.h /usr/include/pci

N32

Compile the package:

sed -i 's/null ;/null 2>\&1 ;/' update-pciids.sh &&
make PREFIX=/usr CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}"

Install the package

make PREFIX=/usr install

Some packages require the PCI static library. To install the library and headers, issue the following commands:

install -v -m 755 -d /usr/include/pci &&
install -v -m 644 lib/libpci.a /usr/lib32 &&
install -v -m 644 lib/*.h /usr/include/pci

64Bit

Compile the package:

sed -i 's/null ;/null 2>\&1 ;/' update-pciids.sh &&
make PREFIX=/usr CC="gcc ${BUILD64}"

Install the package

make PREFIX=/usr install

Some packages require the PCI static library. To install the library and headers, issue the following commands:

install -v -m 755 -d /usr/include/pci &&
install -v -m 644 lib/libpci.a /usr/lib64 &&
install -v -m 644 lib/*.h /usr/include/pci

Configuring

pci.ids

The pci.ids data file is constantly being updated. To get a current version of this file run update-pciids. This program requires Which to find Curl, Wget, or Lynx which is used to download the most current file.

Contents

Short Descriptions

lspci: is a utility for displaying information about all PCI buses in the system and all devices connected to them.

setpci: is a utility for querying and configuring PCI devices.

update-pciids: fetches the current version of the PCI ID list. Requires cURL-7.15.3, Wget-1.10.2 or Lynx-2.8.5.

libpci.a: is the static library that allows applications to access the PCI subsystem.
