Name        : pciutils
Product     : Fedora 21
Version     : 3.3.0
Release     : 1.fc21
URL         : http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~mj/pciutils.shtml
Summary     : PCI bus related utilities
Description :
The pciutils package contains various utilities for inspecting and
setting devices connected to the PCI bus. The utilities provided
require kernel version 2.1.82 or newer (which support the
/proc/bus/pci interface).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

* Device names exported by BIOS are displayed on Linux.

* On Linux systems, HWDB is used to look up device names when our ID database gives no match. (More precisely, HWDB is consulted after local pci.ids, but before using network to query online pci.ids.)

* Added experimental back-end for OS X / Darwin. Thanks to Richard Yao for providing it.

* Filters now support matching by device class. Original patch by Matthew Wilcox, wrappers for ABI compatibility by me.

* Interrupt Pin and Interrupt Line registers are displayed for bridge devices, too.

* Several portability bugs have been fixed.

* Several typos have been fixed. Also, use of questionable constructs in man pages has been reduced.

* PCIe link capabilities now include the ASPMOptComp bit.

* The "CRS Software Visibility" bit is now decoded properly.

* Updated pci.ids to the current snapshot of the database.
