PCI(e) enumeration

[Christian Gmeiner]

Hi all,

I maintain a debian based linux RFS in my company and my college does the
same for windows. Now we run into a problem that windows and linux use a
different network interface as eth0. In our target system there
are two identical NICs installed.

So I am now looking to find out, how linux does the PCI enumeration
and in which order
the PCI driver gets called to do the initialization. Can somebody tell
me if a depth-first search
or a breadth-first search is done on the PCI bus.


For instance look at this lspci output:

00:01.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] CS5536 [Geode
companion] Host Bridge (rev 33)
00:01.1 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] Geode LX Video
00:01.2 Entertainment encryption device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD]
Geode LX AES Security Block

00:0f.7 USB Controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] CS5536 [Geode

How will linux does the enumeration?

thanks
