Thanks a LOT !

I've been waiting for this, since I want to make the PCI bus 
and NCR SCSI configuration available via sysctl ...

What names would you propose for these particular variables ?

E.g.:

hw.bus.pci.bus_0.slot_5.func_0.vendor_id: 0x8086
hw.bus.pci.bus_0.slot_5.func_0.device_id: 0x0483
hw.bus.pci.bus_0.slot_5.func_0.map.mem32: 0x80fff000 0x00001000
hw.bus.pci.bus_0.slot_5.func_0.map.io:    0xd0f0 0x0010
...

Don't know which names to use for the NCR SCSI variables.

There should be a way to look at synch. transfer rates, tags, ... 
of each controller, drive, LUN.


These should of course be choosen in a way, that other buses
(EISA, ISA) and SCSI controllers fit in.



Anybody got ideas ?
