-4. Available access methods
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-The library (and therefore all the utilities) know a variety of methods for
-accessing the PCI registers. Here is a list of them, sorted by autodetection
-priority:
-
- /proc/bus/pci on all Linux systems since kernel 2.1.82.
- /sys/bus/pci on all Linux systems since kernel 2.5.xx.
- direct port access on i386 systems running Linux, GNU Hurd or Solaris/x86;
- available only to root, useful if no other access
- method is available or you want to hunt kernel bugs
- /dev/pci used on FreeBSD
- lsdev + odmget used on AIX
- libpci used on NetBSD
- dumps reading of dumps produced by `lspci -x'
- (this one is not autodetected)
+4. Getting new versions
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+New versions of pciutils are available at the following places:
+
+ ftp://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/pub/linux/pci/
+ ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/software/utils/pciutils/ (expect a couple of hours delay)
+ ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/hardware/ (expect a couple of days delay)
+
+There is also a public GIT tree at:
+
+ git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/pciutils/pciutils.git
