sys_attrs_pci(5)
NAME
sys_attrs_pci - pci subsystem attributes
DESCRIPTION
This reference page lists and describes attributes for the PCI (pci) kernel
subsystem. Refer to the sys_attrs(5) reference page for an introduction to
the topic of kernel subsystem attributes.
For this subsytem, users should modify only the following attribute and do
so only for the purpose described. Any other visible attributes cannot or
should not be modified.
PCI_Developer_Debug
A bit-mask setting that allows the developer of PCI hardware and
softwareto determine the PCI configuration parameters on an Alpha
system based on the PCI bus. By setting PCI_Developer_Debug to
different values, a variety of hardware-related or software-related
information about all PCI devices on an AlphaServer are printed out at
system bootstrap time. If loadable drivers are used, loadable
configuration data is also printed out on execution of the sysconfig -c
command.
Refer to the /usr/include/io/dec/pci/pci_debug.h file for valid bit-
field settings for this attribute. The pci_debug.h file contains macro
definitions that state the type of information that is printed out if
PCI_Developer_Debug is set to a particular value. Any combination of
the bit-flags is valid. For example, the value 0x70 allows the hardware
or software developer to see the PCI configuration header information
that the kernel reads or assigns to PCI devices.
Default value: 0
Minimum value: 0
Maximum value: FFFFFFFF(16)
