5.4.2.6sysReadConfigWord

This function allows the caller to read individual shorts (16 bits) from the configuration space of a specific device. The Register Number parameter must be a multiple of two (i.e., bit 0 must be set to “0”).

Calling convention:

int sysReadConfigWord (

int bus_number,

int device_number,

int function_number,

int

register_number,

/* 0,2,4,...,254 */

UINT16*data

);

Return values:

This function returns SUCCESSFUL when the indicated word was read correctly, or ERROR when there is a problem with the parameters.

5.4.2.7sysReadConfigDword

This function allows the caller to read individual longs (32 bits) from the configuration space of a specific device. The Register Number parameter must be a multiple of four (i.e., bits 0 and 1 must be set to “0”).

Calling convention:

int sysReadConfigDword (

int bus_number,

int device_number,

int function_number,

int

register_number,

/* 0,4,8,...,252 */

UINT32 *data

);

Return values:

This function returns SUCCESSFUL when the indicated long was read correctly, or ERROR when there is a problem with the parameters.
