NAME

viaideinfo - display stats/info about VIA IDE controllers

SYNOPSIS

viaideinfo options

DESCRIPTION

viaideinfo is a command line application which prints basic information about VIA IDE controllers present in the system.

viaideinfo must be run as root.

viaideinfo attempts to automatically detect the IDE controllers present in the system, and their associated ISA bridges. You also have the option of specifying a custom device to assume is the IDE device, but you do not have this option for the ISA bridge.

This application calculates some timing details. These calculations involve an IDE bus speed, which is assumed to be 33MHz. This is not always true, so if you think you know better, you can override this default. If an incorrect bus speed is being used, the timing data will be wrong.

OPTIONS

--help
Print a brief help and usage message.
-c, --ide-clock=SPEED
Assume SPEED MHz as the IDE bus speed (default 33).
-d, --device=BUS:DEV.FUNC
Don't autodetect IDE controller, use the specified PCI device instead (example: 00:11.1). You will get odd results if you specify a device which is not a VIA IDE controller.
