.It Nm PCIBIOS
turn on the PCI BIOS support.
.It Nm PCIBIOSVERBOSE
make the setup procedure verbose.
.It Nm PCIBIOS_INTR_FIXUP
fixup PCI interrupt routing.
.It Nm PCIBIOS_IRQS_HINT

When the PCI BIOS support cannot
guess an adequate IRQ for a device the hint is used.
.It Nm PCIINTR_DEBUG
super-verbose PCI interrupt fixup.
.It Nm PCIBIOS_ADDR_FIXUP
fixup PCI I/O and memory addresses.
.Pp
Some BIOS implementations don't allocate I/O space and
memory space for some PCI devices. Especially, a BIOS
which is
.Qq PnP OS mode enabled
shows this behavior.
Since necessary space isn't allocated, those devices
will not work without special handling.
This option allocates a I/O space and a memory space
instead of relying upon the BIOS to do so.
If necessary space is already correctly assigned to the devices,
this option leaves the space as is.
Although many BIOS implementations leave CardBus bridges'
space unallocated, the CardBus bridge device driver doesn't
require this option, since the driver allocates necessary space
by itself.
.It Nm PCIBIOS_BUS_FIXUP
fixup PCI bus numbering; needed for many
.Xr cardbus 4
bridges.
.It Nm PCIBIOS_ADDR_FIXUP
fixup PCI I/O and memory addresses.
.Pp
Each PCI bus and CardBus should have a unique bus number.
But some BIOS implementations don't assign a bus number
for subordinate PCI buses. And many BIOS implementations
don't assign a bus number for CardBuses.
A typical symptom of this is the following boot message:
.D1 Sy cardbus0 at cardslot0: bus 0 device 0...
Please note that this cardbus0 has a bus number
.Sq 0 ,
but normally the bus number 0 is used by the machine's
primary PCI bus. Thus, this bus number for cardbus is
incorrect
.Pq not assigned .
In this situation, a device located in cardbus0 doesn't
show correct device ID,
because its bus number 0 incorrectly refers to the primary
PCI bus, and a device ID in the primary PCI bus is shown
in the boot message instead of the device's ID in the cardbus0.
This option assigns bus numbers for all subordinate
PCI buses and CardBuses.
Since this option renumbers all PCI buses and CardBuses,
all bus numbers of subordinate buses become different
when this option is enabled.
.It Nm PCIBIOS_INTR_FIXUP
fixup PCI interrupt routing.
.Pp
Some BIOS implementations don't assign an interrupt for
some devices.
This option assigns an interrupt for such devices instead
of relying upon the BIOS to do so.
If the BIOS has already assigned an interrupt to a device, this
option leaves the interrupt as is.
.It Nm PCIBIOS_IRQS_HINT
hint for IRQ use.
When the
.Em PCIBIOS_INTR_FIXUP
cannot guess an adequate IRQ for a device, the hint is used.
.Pp
The value is a logical or of power-of-2s of allowable interrupts:
.Bd -literal
.Em "IRQ Val IRQ Val IRQ Val IRQ Val"
0 0x0001 4 0x0010 8 0x0100 12 0x1000
1 0x0002 5 0x0020 9 0x0200 13 0x2000
2 0x0004 6 0x0040 10 0x0400 14 0x4000
3 0x0008 7 0x0080 11 0x0800 15 0x8000
.Ed
.Pp
For example,
.Qq Sy options PCIBIOS_IRQS_HINT=0x0a00
allows IRQ 9 and IRQ 11.
The kernel global variable
.Va pcibios_irqs_hint
holds this value,
so a user can override this value without kernel recompilation.
For example:
.Bl -bullet
.It
To specify this value on the fly, type
.Qq Ic boot -d
at the boot prompt to drop into DDB (the in-kernel debugger;
you have to specify
.Qq Sy options DDB
to make kernel with DDB).
Specify
.Qq Ic write pcibios_irqs_hint 0x0a00
on
.Qq Sy db>
prompt and type
.Qq Ic c
to continue to boot.
.It
To modify kernel image without kernel recompilation,
run
.Qq Ic gdb --write /netbsd
on shell, type
.Qq Ic set pcibios_irqs_hint=0xa00
at the
.Qq Sy (gdb)
prompt, and type
.Qq Ic quit .
.El
.It Nm PCIBIOS_INTR_FIXUP_FORCE
.Pp
Some buggy BIOS implementations provide inconsistent
information between the PCI Interrupt Configuration Register
and the PCI Interrupt Routing table. In such case,
the PCI Interrupt Configuration Register takes precedence
by default. If this happens, a kernel with
.Em PCIBIOSVERBOSE
shows
.Qq Sy WARNING: preserving irq XX
in the PCI routing table.
If
.Em PCIBIOS_INTR_FIXUP_FORCE
is specified in addition to the
.Em PCIBIOS_INTR_FIXUP ,
the PCI Interrupt Routing table takes precedence.
In this case, a kernel with
.Em PCIBIOSVERBOSE
shows
.Qq Sy WARNING: overriding irq XX
in the PCI routing table.
The necessity of this option is doubtful, and we may
remove this option in the future. If you find that this
option is worth preserving, please report it with send-pr.
.It Nm PCIINTR_DEBUG
make the
.Em PCIBIOS_INTR_FIXUP
