PCI Utilities 3.0.0 (Default branch)

The PCI Utilities package contains various utilities dealing with the PCI bus, and also a library for portable access to PCI configuration registers. It includes `lspci' for listing all PCI devices (very useful for debugging of both kernel and device drivers) and `setpci' for manual configuration of PCI devices.License: GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:
The lspci utility is now able to use a central database to look up names of devices that are missing from the local pci.ids file. This is accomplished by DNS queries on a special zone. Also, the libpci library can be now built as a shared library with a stable ABI.

NAME

       npe - PCI Express bus nexus driver

DESCRIPTION

       The npe nexus driver is used on X64 servers for PCI Express Root Complex devices that provide PCI Express interconnect. This driver is com-
       pliant to PCI Express base specification, Revision 1.0a.

       This nexus driver provides support for the following features: Access to  extended  configuration  space,  IEEE	1275  extensions  for  PCI
       Express, Base line PCI Express error handling and PCI Express MSI interrupts.
