Description Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-07-05 07:36:21 UTC
Please don't hate me for the one-day bump-request. In the end I didn't kill a kitteh though :)

        * Released as 3.1.3.

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

        * The VPD parser now reports unknown and vendor-defined items
        properly. It also stops on any item in unknown format, avoiding long
        output on bogus VPD data. Thanks to Ben Hutchings and Matthew Wilcox.

        * The MSI-X table size now matches the spec. Thanks to Michael S.
        Tsirkin.

        * The Power Management capability now includes the soft reset bit.
        Thanks to Yu Zhao.

        * Decoding of the Advanced Features capability has been added.
        Thanks to Yu Zhao.

        * The whole package compiles on GNU/kFreeBSD again.

        The following patches have been contributed by Matthew Wilcox:

        * The procfs back-end is able to cope with /proc/bus/pci
        containing names with domains, which occur on sparc64 and
        possibly other architectures due to a kernel bug.

        * The sysfs back-end no longer complains when a slot address
        is missing, which happens with old versions of Linux fakephp.

        * The Device Serial Number capability is printed in the right
        byte order.

        * The MSI and MSI-X capabilities are printed in a prettier way.

        * The tree output mode (`lspci -t') shows domain numbers only
        at the root, which makes the output more compact.

        * Updated documentation on the bus mapping mode (`lspci -M').

        * Released as 3.1.4.
          (sorry that I have missed 22/7 and released it later :-))

        * Updated pci.ids to the today's snapshot of the database.

        * Fixed memory and file descriptor leak in the dump back-end.

        * The SR-IOV capability decoder now prints the VF BAR's.
        Patch by Chris Wright, cleaned up by me.

        * On request of certain company's lawyers, we now include a copy
        of the GPL with our package. It seems that the pciutils are getting
        mature if the most important bug of the month was this one ;-)
