i written device drivers code for to trace the pci device tree but i got the information of the vendor id ,devie id ,subsystem id .i have doubt at how it read the the subsytem vendor id i not understand.please any one help me to detect the sub sytem how it is reading...
You ought to be able to surf through a virtual-directory tree, perhaps /proc, to find the information that you need, without writing a driver just to obtain configuration information about the system. Therefore, perhaps I do not fully understand your question. Can you please briefly describe what existing PCI driver source-code you have already investigated, and what specific piece of logic you need help with?
Which is the correct contexts in which callouts run from the following?
What is the operation of following kernel interface? rw_lock_held(lock pointer);
Which of the buffer structure fields specifies the direction of IO transfer, the transfer size and the virtual address of the data in a solaris machine?
Which of the debuggers allow extensive customization and supports user written pluggable debugging modules in their specific debuggers?
What firmware command causes a kernel core file to be dumped to the dump device like external hard disk or disk tape?
Can it be possible to take a core dump of a system which is live?
Which of the following correct method of initializing a mutex on solaris?
Which one of the following register set of a calling function is passed on as input registers to the called function, on a sparc system?
Which of the structures keeps track of the positional offset within the file where the next IO is to be performed in a solaris machine?

Which one is true of memory allocated by kmem_alloc from the given below options?
Which is the basic mutex operations supported by the solaris operating system running on a sparc machine?
The OS gives guaranty that a thread which has been blocked on a cv through a cv_wait call does not comes alive wrongly and so does not need to re-check for the reason for blocking. State whether true or false.
Among the filesystems which implement the mmap interface, which is the correct locking hierarchy?
The kmem_alloc is paged and allocated the memory. Validate this statement.

Reason: some more matter
Hey, pal, back in the day, I did my homeworkmyself! (And graduated with highest honors, so there!)
The entire point of education is that you dig for the answers and that in so doing you not only learn those answers but also learn how to find them. For yourself. If you're not willing to do that, then you're wasting your time and perhaps a considerable amount of money, and no one, anywhere in the world, wants to hire a lazy programmer.
