pcibios_find_class, pcibios_find_device - find a PCI class
       or device


SYNOPSIS

       #include <linux/bios32.h>


       int pcibios_find_class(unsigned int class_code, unsigned
       short index, unsigned char* bus, unsigned char*
       device_fn);

       int pcibios_find_device(unsigned short  vendor,
       unsigned short device_id ",unsigned short "index,
       unsigned char* bus, unsigned char* device_fn);


DESCRIPTION

       The  pcibios_find_class  function  searches  for a certain
       class of device on the PCI bus.  In this  instance,  class
       is  used  to  represent  a  few  different  categories  of
       devices.  Some examples are storage, network, display, and
       memory  classes. The classes are defined by the PCI Speci­
       fication, and the class_code is matched with the dword  in
       the configuration space of the device at offset 0x08.

       The pcibios_find_device function finds a device on the PCI
       bus that has the matching device and vendor ids. The  ven­
       dor  ids  are  assigned  to the PCI Sig to vendors, who in
       turn assign device ids to the devices  they  develop.  The
       vendor  and  device  ids  are encoded in dword 0x00 of the
       configuration space.

       Both pcibios_find_class and pcibios_find_device include an
       extra  index  parameter,  which is used to select the spe­
       cific device if there are multiple matches. An index of  0
       matches  the firts located board, 1 the second, and so on.

       The bus and device_fn parameters are PCI specific  cookies
       that  are  passed to other pcibios functions to access the
       configuration space of the located device.


RETURN VALUE

       On success, the functions return PCIBIOS_SUCCESSFUL.  Oth­
       erwise, one of the following error codes is returned:

              PCIBIOS_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND
                     There  is  no device that matches the search
                     criteria,

              PCIBIOS_BAD_VENDOR_ID
                     The vendor id is invalid. (0xffff is  not  a
                     valid id.)

                     The PCI subsystem is not available
