DESCRIPTION
       The pci set of functions	are used for managing PCI devices.  The	 func-
       tions are split into several groups: raw	configuration access, locating
       devices,	device information, device configuration, and message signaled
       interrupts.

   Raw Configuration Access
       The  pci_read_config()  function	is used	to read	data from the PCI con-
       figuration space	of the device dev, at offset reg, with width  specify-
       ing the size of the access.

       The  pci_write_config()	function is used to write the value val	to the
       PCI configuration space of the device dev, at offset  reg,  with	 width
       specifying the size of the access.

       The pcie_adjust_config()	function is used to modify the value of	a reg-
       ister  in  the  PCI-express capability register set of device dev.  The
       offset reg specifies a relative offset in the register set  with	 width
       specifying  the	size  of the access.  The new value of the register is
       computed	by modifying bits set in mask to the value in val.   Any  bits
       not  specified in mask are preserved.  The previous value of the	regis-
       ter is returned.

       The pcie_read_config() function is used to read the value of a register
       in the PCI-express capability register set of device dev.   The	offset
       reg specifies a relative	offset in the register set with	width specify-
       ing the size of the access.

       The  pcie_write_config()	 function  is used to write the	value val to a
       register	in the PCI-express capability register set of device dev.  The
       offset reg specifies a relative offset in the register set  with	 width
       specifying the size of the access.

       NOTE:  Device drivers should only use these functions for functionality
       that is not available via another pci() function.

   Locating Devices
       The pci_find_bsf() function looks up the	 device_t  of  a  PCI  device,
       given  its bus, slot, and func.	The slot number	actually refers	to the
       number of the device on the bus,	which does  not	 necessarily  indicate
       its geographic location in terms	of a physical slot.  Note that in case
       the  system  has	multiple PCI domains, the pci_find_bsf() function only
       searches	the first one.	Actually, it is	equivalent to:

	     pci_find_dbsf(0, bus, slot, func);

       The pci_find_dbsf() function looks up the device_t  of  a  PCI  device,
       given its domain, bus, slot, and	func.  The slot	number actually	refers
       to  the number of the device on the bus,	which does not necessarily in-
       dicate its geographic location in terms of a physical slot.

       The pci_find_device() function looks up the device_t of a  PCI  device,
       given  its  vendor  and	device	IDs.   Note that there can be multiple
       matches for this	search;	this function only returns the first  matching
       device.

   Device Information
       The  pci_find_cap()  function is	used to	locate the first instance of a
       PCI capability register set for the device dev.	The capability to  lo-
       cate  is	 specified  by ID via capability.  Constant macros of the form
       PCIY_xxx	for standard capability	IDs are	defined	in <dev/pci/pcireg.h>.
       If the capability is found, then	*capreg	is set to the offset  in  con-
       figuration space	of the capability register set,	and pci_find_cap() re-
       turns zero.  If the capability is not found or the device does not sup-
       port    capabilities,	pci_find_cap()	  returns   an	 error.	   The
       pci_find_next_cap() function is used to locate the next instance	 of  a
       PCI  capability	register  set for the device dev.  The start should be
       the *capreg returned by a prior pci_find_cap() or  pci_find_next_cap().
       When  no	 more instances	are located pci_find_next_cap()	returns	an er-
       ror.

       The pci_find_extcap() function is used to locate	the first instance  of
       a PCI-express extended capability register set for the device dev.  The
       extended	 capability to locate is specified by ID via capability.  Con-
       stant macros of the form	PCIZ_xxx for standard extended capability  IDs
       are  defined  in	 <dev/pci/pcireg.h>.   If  the	extended capability is
       found, then *capreg is set to the offset	in configuration space of  the
       extended	 capability  register set, and pci_find_extcap() returns zero.
       If the extended capability is not found or the device is	not a  PCI-ex-
       press	device,	   pci_find_extcap()	returns	   an	 error.	   The
       pci_find_next_extcap() function is used to locate the next instance  of
       a PCI-express extended capability register set for the device dev.  The
       start  should  be  the *capreg returned by a prior pci_find_extcap() or
       pci_find_next_extcap().	  When	 no   more   instances	 are   located
       pci_find_next_extcap() returns an error.

       The pci_find_htcap() function is	used to	locate the first instance of a
       HyperTransport  capability  register set	for the	device dev.  The capa-
       bility to locate	is specified by	type via capability.  Constant	macros
       of the form PCIM_HTCAP_xxx for standard HyperTransport capability types
       are  defined  in	 <dev/pci/pcireg.h>.  If the capability	is found, then
       *capreg is set to the offset in configuration space of  the  capability
       register	 set, and pci_find_htcap() returns zero.  If the capability is
       not  found  or	the   device   is   not	  a   HyperTransport   device,
       pci_find_htcap()	 returns an error.  The	pci_find_next_htcap() function
       is used to locate the next instance of a	HyperTransport capability reg-
       ister set for the device	dev.  The start	should be the *capreg returned
       by a prior pci_find_htcap() or pci_find_next_htcap().  When no more in-
       stances are located pci_find_next_htcap() returns an error.

       The pci_find_pcie_root_port() function walks up the PCI device  hierar-
       chy  to	locate	the  PCI-express root port upstream of dev.  If	a root
       port is not found, pci_find_pcie_root_port() returns NULL.

       The pci_get_id()	function is used to read an identifier from a  device.
       The type	flag is	used to	specify	which identifier to read.  The follow-
       ing flags are supported:

       PCI_ID_RID  Read	the routing identifier for the device.

       PCI_ID_MSI  Read	 the MSI routing ID.  This is needed by	some interrupt
		   controllers to route	MSI and	MSI-X interrupts.

       The pci_get_vpd_ident() function	is used	 to  fetch  a  device's	 Vital
       Product	Data  (VPD) identifier string.	If the device dev supports VPD
       and provides an identifier string, then *identptr is set	to point at  a
       read-only,   null-terminated   copy   of	 the  identifier  string,  and
       pci_get_vpd_ident() returns zero.  If the device	does not  support  VPD
       or  does	not provide an identifier string, then pci_get_vpd_ident() re-
       turns an	error.

       The pci_get_vpd_readonly() function is used to fetch  the  value	 of  a
       single  VPD read-only keyword for the device dev.  The keyword to fetch
       is identified by	the two	character string kw.  If the  device  supports
       VPD  and	 provides  a  read-only	 value for the requested keyword, then
       *vptr is	set to point at	 a  read-only,	null-terminated	 copy  of  the
       value, and pci_get_vpd_readonly() returns zero.	If the device does not
       support	 VPD   or   does  not  provide	the  requested	keyword,  then
       pci_get_vpd_readonly() returns an error.

       The pcie_get_max_completion_timeout() function returns the maximum com-
       pletion timeout configured for the device dev in	microseconds.  If  the
       dev	 device	      is      not      a      PCI-express      device,
       pcie_get_max_completion_timeout() returns zero.	When completion	 time-
       outs  are  disabled for dev, this function returns the maxmimum timeout
       that would be used if timeouts were enabled.

       The pcie_wait_for_pending_transactions()	function waits for any pending
       transactions initiated by the dev device	 to  complete.	 The  function
       checks  for  pending  transactions  by polling the transactions pending
       flag in the PCI-express device status register.	It returns  true  once
       the transaction pending flag is clear.  If transactions are still pend-
       ing  after max_delay milliseconds, pcie_wait_for_pending_transactions()
       returns	  false.      If     max_delay	   is	  set	  to	 zero,
       pcie_wait_for_pending_transactions()  performs  a  single check;	other-
       wise, this function may sleep while polling  the	 transactions  pending
       flag.   pcie_wait_for_pending_transactions returns true if dev is not a
       PCI-express device.

   Device Configuration
       The pci_enable_busmaster() function enables PCI bus mastering  for  the
       device dev, by setting the PCIM_CMD_BUSMASTEREN bit in the PCIR_COMMAND
       register.  The pci_disable_busmaster() function clears this bit.

       The  pci_enable_io() function enables memory or I/O port	address	decod-
       ing  for	 the  device   dev,   by   setting   the   PCIM_CMD_MEMEN   or
       PCIM_CMD_PORTEN	bit  in	 the PCIR_COMMAND register appropriately.  The
       pci_disable_io()	function clears	the appropriate	bit.  The space	 argu-
       ment   specifies	 which	resource  is  affected;	 this  can  be	either
       SYS_RES_MEMORY or SYS_RES_IOPORT	as appropriate.	 Device	drivers	should
       generally not use these routines	directly.  The PCI bus will enable de-
       coding automatically when a SYS_RES_MEMORY or  SYS_RES_IOPORT  resource
       is activated via	bus_alloc_resource(9) or bus_activate_resource(9).

       The pci_get_max_payload() function returns the current maximum TLP pay-
       load  size in bytes for a PCI-express device.  If the dev device	is not
       a PCI-express device, pci_get_max_payload() returns zero.

       The pci_get_max_read_req() function returns the	current	 maximum  read
       request	size  in bytes for a PCI-express device.  If the dev device is
       not a PCI-express device, pci_get_max_read_req()	returns	zero.

       The pci_set_max_read_req() sets the PCI-express	maximum	 read  request
       size   for   dev.    The	  requested   size   may   be	adjusted,  and
       pci_set_max_read_req() returns the actual size set in  bytes.   If  the
       dev  device is not a PCI-express	device,	pci_set_max_read_req() returns
       zero.

       The pci_get_powerstate()	function returns the current  power  state  of
       the  device dev.	 If the	device does not	support	power management capa-
       bilities, then the default state	of PCI_POWERSTATE_D0 is	returned.  The
       following power states are defined by PCI:

       PCI_POWERSTATE_D0       State in	which device is	on and running.	 It is
			       receiving full power from the system and	deliv-
			       ering full functionality	to the user.

       PCI_POWERSTATE_D1       Class-specific low-power	state in which	device
			       context	may or may not be lost.	 Buses in this
			       state cannot do anything	to the bus,  to	 force
			       devices to lose context.

       PCI_POWERSTATE_D2       Class-specific  low-power state in which	device
			       context	may  or	 may  not  be  lost.   Attains
			       greater	power  savings than PCI_POWERSTATE_D1.
			       Buses in	this state can cause devices  to  lose
			       some context.  Devices must be prepared for the
			       bus to be in this state or higher.

       PCI_POWERSTATE_D3       State  in  which	the device is off and not run-
			       ning.  Device context is	lost, and  power  from
			       the device can be removed.

       PCI_POWERSTATE_UNKNOWN  State of	the device is unknown.

       The  pci_set_powerstate() function is used to transition	the device dev
       to the PCI power	state state.  If the device  does  not	support	 power
       management capabilities or it does not support the specific power state
       state, then the function	will fail with EOPNOTSUPP.

       The  pci_iov_attach()  function is used to advertise that the given de-
       vice (and associated device driver) supports PCI	Single-Root I/O	Virtu-
       alization (SR-IOV).  A driver that supports SR-IOV must	implement  the
       PCI_IOV_INIT(9),	PCI_IOV_ADD_VF(9) and PCI_IOV_UNINIT(9)	methods.  This
       function	 should	be called during the DEVICE_ATTACH(9) method.  If this
       function	returns	an error, it is	recommended  that  the	device	driver
       still  successfully  attaches,  but  runs  with	SR-IOV	disabled.  The
       pf_schema and vf_schema parameters are used to define what  device-spe-
       cific configuration parameters the device driver	accepts	when SR-IOV is
       enabled for the Physical	Function (PF) and for individual Virtual Func-
       tions  (VFs) respectively.  See pci_iov_schema(9) for details on	how to
       construct the schema.  If either	the pf_schema or vf_schema is  invalid
       or  specifies  parameter	 names that conflict with parameter names that
       are already in use, pci_iov_attach() will return	an  error  and	SR-IOV
       will  not  be  available	on the PF device.  If a	driver does not	accept
       configuration parameters	for either the PF device or  the  VF  devices,
       the  driver  must pass an empty schema for that device.	The SR-IOV in-
       frastructure takes ownership of the pf_schema and vf_schema and is  re-
       sponsible for freeing them.  The	driver must never free the schemas it-
       self.

       The  pci_iov_attach_name()  function  is	 a variant of pci_iov_attach()
       that allows the name of the associated character	device in /dev/iov  to
       be  specified  by  fmt.	The pci_iov_attach() function uses the name of
       dev as the device name.

       The pci_iov_detach() function is	used to	advise the SR-IOV  infrastruc-
       ture  that  the driver for the given device is attempting to detach and
       that all	SR-IOV resources for the device	must be	released.  This	 func-
       tion   must   be	  called   during   the	  DEVICE_DETACH(9)  method  if
       pci_iov_attach()	 was   successfully   called   on   the	  device   and
       pci_iov_detach()	has not	subsequently been called on the	device and re-
       turned	no   error.    If   this   function   returns  an  error,  the
       DEVICE_DETACH(9)	method must fail and return an error, as detaching the
       PF driver while VF devices are active would cause  system  instability.
       This   function	 is   safe   to	  call	and  will  always  succeed  if
       pci_iov_attach()	previously failed with an error	on the	given  device,
       or if pci_iov_attach() was never	called on the device.

       The pci_save_state() and	pci_restore_state() functions can be used by a
       device  driver  to save and restore standard PCI	config registers.  The
       pci_save_state()	function must be invoked while the  device  has	 valid
       state  before pci_restore_state() can be	used.  If the device is	not in
       the fully-powered state (PCI_POWERSTATE_D0) when	pci_restore_state() is
       invoked,	then the device	will be	transitioned to	PCI_POWERSTATE_D0  be-
       fore any	config registers are restored.

       The  pcie_flr()	function requests a Function Level Reset (FLR) of dev.
       If dev is not a PCI-express device or does not support  Function	 Level
       Resets  via the PCI-express device control register, false is returned.
       Pending transactions are	drained	by disabling busmastering and  calling
       pcie_wait_for_pending_transactions()  before resetting the device.  The
       max_delay argument specifies the	maximum	timeout	to  wait  for  pending
       transactions as described for pcie_wait_for_pending_transactions().  If
       pcie_wait_for_pending_transactions()  fails with	a timeout and force is
       false,  busmastering  is	 re-enabled  and  false	  is   returned.    If
       pcie_wait_for_pending_transactions()  fails with	a timeout and force is
       true, the device	is reset despite the timeout.	After  the  reset  has
       been  requested,	 pcie_flr  sleeps for at least 100 milliseconds	before
       returning true.	Note that pcie_flr does	not save and restore any state
       around the reset.  The caller should save and restore state as needed.

   Message Signaled Interrupts
       Message Signaled	Interrupts (MSI) and Enhanced Message Signaled	Inter-
       rupts (MSI-X) are PCI capabilities that provide an alternate method for
       PCI  devices to signal interrupts.  The legacy INTx interrupt is	avail-
       able to PCI devices as a	SYS_RES_IRQ resource with  a  resource	ID  of
       zero.   MSI and MSI-X interrupts	are available to PCI devices as	one or
       more SYS_RES_IRQ	resources with resource	IDs greater than zero.	A dri-
       ver must	ask the	PCI bus	to allocate  MSI  or  MSI-X  interrupts	 using
       pci_alloc_msi()	or  pci_alloc_msix()  before  it  can use MSI or MSI-X
       SYS_RES_IRQ resources.  A driver	is not allowed to use the legacy  INTx
       SYS_RES_IRQ  resource  if  MSI or MSI-X interrupts have been allocated,
       and attempts to allocate	MSI or MSI-X interrupts	will fail if the  dri-
       ver  is currently using the legacy INTx SYS_RES_IRQ resource.  A	driver
       is only allowed to use either MSI or MSI-X, but not both.

       The pci_msi_count() function returns the	maximum	number of MSI messages
       supported by the	device dev.  If	the device does	not support MSI,  then
       pci_msi_count() returns zero.

       The  pci_alloc_msi()  function attempts to allocate *count MSI messages
       for the device dev.  The	pci_alloc_msi()	function  may  allocate	 fewer
       messages	than requested for various reasons including requests for more
       messages	 than the device dev supports, or if the system	has a shortage
       of available MSI	messages.  On success, *count is set to	the number  of
       messages	 allocated  and	pci_alloc_msi()	returns	zero.  The SYS_RES_IRQ
       resources for the allocated messages will be available  at  consecutive
       resource	IDs beginning with one.	 If pci_alloc_msi() is not able	to al-
       locate  any messages, it	returns	an error.  Note	that MSI only supports
       message counts that are powers of two; requests to allocate a non-power
       of two count of messages	will fail.

       The pci_release_msi() function is used to release any allocated MSI  or
       MSI-X messages back to the system.  If any MSI or MSI-X SYS_RES_IRQ re-
       sources are allocated by	the driver or have a configured	interrupt han-
       dler,  this function will fail with EBUSY.  The pci_release_msi() func-
       tion returns zero on success and	an error on failure.

       The pci_msix_count() function returns the maximum number	of MSI-X  mes-
       sages supported by the device dev.  If the device does not support MSI-
       X, then pci_msix_count()	returns	zero.

       The  pci_msix_pba_bar()	function  returns  the offset in configuration
       space of	the Base Address Register (BAR)	containing the	MSI-X  Pending
       Bit  Array (PBA)	for device dev.	 The returned value can	be used	as the
       resource	ID with	bus_alloc_resource(9) and  bus_release_resource(9)  to
       allocate	 the  BAR.   If	 the  device  does  not	 support  MSI-X,  then
       pci_msix_pba_bar() returns -1.

       The pci_msix_table_bar()	function returns the offset  in	 configuration
       space of	the BAR	containing the MSI-X vector table for device dev.  The
       returned	   value    can	   be	used   as   the	  resource   ID	  with
       bus_alloc_resource(9) and bus_release_resource(9) to allocate the  BAR.
       If the device does not support MSI-X, then pci_msix_table_bar() returns
       -1.

       The  pci_alloc_msix()  function	attempts to allocate *count MSI-X mes-
       sages for the device dev.  The pci_alloc_msix() function	 may  allocate
       fewer  messages	than  requested	for various reasons including requests
       for more	messages than the device dev supports, or if the system	has  a
       shortage	of available MSI-X messages.  On success, *count is set	to the
       number  of  messages  allocated and pci_alloc_msix() returns zero.  For
       MSI-X messages, the resource ID for each	SYS_RES_IRQ  resource  identi-
       fies  the index in the MSI-X table of the corresponding message.	 A re-
       source ID of one	maps to	the first index	of the MSI-X table; a resource
       ID  two	identifies  the	 second	 index	in  the	  table,   etc.	   The
       pci_alloc_msix()	 function assigns the *count messages allocated	to the
       first *count table indices.  If pci_alloc_msix()	is not able  to	 allo-
       cate any	messages, it returns an	error.	Unlike MSI, MSI-X does not re-
       quire message counts that are powers of two.

       The  BARs  containing  the MSI-X	vector table and PBA must be allocated
       via bus_alloc_resource(9) before	calling	pci_alloc_msix() and must  not
       be  released until after	calling	pci_release_msi().  Note that the vec-
       tor table and PBA may be	stored in the same BAR or in different BARs.

       The pci_pending_msix() function examines	the dev	device's PBA to	deter-
       mine the	pending	status of the MSI-X message at table index index.   If
       the  indicated  message	is  pending,  this function returns a non-zero
       value; otherwise, it returns zero.  Passing an invalid  index  to  this
       function	will result in undefined behavior.

       As mentioned in the description of pci_alloc_msix(), MSI-X messages are
       initially  assigned  to	the first N table entries.  A driver may use a
       different distribution of available messages to table entries  via  the
       pci_remap_msix()	 function.  Note that this function must be called af-
       ter a successful	 call  to  pci_alloc_msix()  but  before  any  of  the
       SYS_RES_IRQ resources are allocated.  The pci_remap_msix() function re-
       turns zero on success, or an error on failure.

       The vectors array should	contain	count message vectors.	The array maps
       directly	to the MSI-X table in that the first entry in the array	speci-
       fies  the message used for the first entry in the MSI-X table, the sec-
       ond entry in the	array corresponds to the second	entry in the MSI-X ta-
       ble, etc.  The vector value in each array index can either be  zero  to
       indicate	 that no message should	be assigned to the corresponding MSI-X
       table entry, or it can be a number from one to N	(where N is the	 count
       returned	 from the previous call	to pci_alloc_msix()) to	indicate which
       of the allocated	messages should	be assigned to the corresponding MSI-X
       table entry.

       If pci_remap_msix() succeeds, each MSI-X	table entry  with  a  non-zero
       vector  will  have an associated	SYS_RES_IRQ resource whose resource ID
       corresponds to the table	index as described above for pci_alloc_msix().
       MSI-X table entries that	with a vector of zero will not have an associ-
       ated SYS_RES_IRQ	resource.  Additionally, if any	of the	original  mes-
       sages  allocated	 by pci_alloc_msix() are not used in the new distribu-
       tion of messages	in the MSI-X table, they will  be  released  automati-
       cally.	Note  that  if a driver	wishes to use fewer messages than were
       allocated by pci_alloc_msix(), the driver must use a single, contiguous
       range of	messages beginning with	one  in	 the  new  distribution.   The
       pci_remap_msix()	function will fail if this condition is	not met.

   Device Events
       The pci_add_device event	handler	is invoked every time a	new PCI	device
       is  added  to  the system.  This	includes the creation of Virtual Func-
       tions via SR-IOV.

       The pci_delete_device event handler is invoked every time a PCI	device
       is removed from the system.

       Both event handlers pass	the device_t object of the relevant PCI	device
       as  dev	to  each  callback  function.  Both event handlers are invoked
       while dev is unattached but with	valid instance variables.

BUGS
       The  kernel  PCI	 code  has  a  number of references to "slot numbers".
       These do	not refer to the geographic location of	PCI  devices,  but  to
       the  device  number assigned by the combination of the PCI IDSEL	mecha-
       nism and	the platform firmware.	This should  be	 taken	note  of  when
       working with the	kernel PCI code.

       The  PCI	 bus driver should allocate the	MSI-X vector table and PBA in-
       ternally	as necessary rather than requiring the caller to do so.
