Hi All, As you are aware, my project is to convert PCI drivers to be table driven. This week I have worked on other PCI drivers. I converted amr, age, ae, alc, amdsmb, bfe, bge, ce PCI drivers. I worked with harder drivers as well. [1] [2] I have added the Plug and Play information for them and found them to be used by devmatch to match them with modules automatically. I resolved all build issues. We need to convert the drivers in a certain way so that kldxref can find it and record it in linker hints. I am working on PCI drivers so as to make it easy for kldxref to find them. In a couple of drivers I have added tables and modified the probe function. At the same time, I am also learning the internals of the kernel, this will help our goal ultimately - Automatic module loading. [3] Please find my updated project homepage here.
