1What: /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../vpd
2Date: February 2008
3Contact: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>
4Description:
5 A file named vpd in a device directory will be a
6 binary file containing the Vital Product Data for the
7 device. It should follow the VPD format defined in
8 PCI Specification 2.1 or 2.2, but users should consider
9 that some devices may have malformatted data. If the
10 underlying VPD has a writable section then the
11 corresponding section of this file will be writable.
