building PCI IDs/drivers DB from Linux kernel sources
Hello.
I've already done something and it should be included on kernel 2.5, with my
autoprobe configuration utility.
The sources are in
http://people.debian.org/~cate/files/kautoconfigure/autoconfigure/
(note that autoconfigure.rule is a simple bash script, so you can extract
and transform data in a few shell commands)
My format is:
check_pci 'PCI_ID' NAME_OF_CONFIG # kernel/file
where PCI_ID is a regexp of the form:
vendor_id, device_id, subvendor_id, subdevice_id; class, interface
(mail me for further details)
Note you should manually enter the devices, because there are a lot of exceptions:
motherboard workaround in drivers,...
(I will chek you program and maybe I would stole some of your result, It is GPL?)

OK, I will give it a look.

Yes! (this is indicated in cpcidb.linux --- the main script; yes I know the name is too long...)
Cheers,
