This case is to make a minor update to the Amaranth project to support PCI device detection on Mac OS X. It requests a minor release binding to the Sun Device Detection Tool product. I have marked it as "closed approved automatic" since the change is straightforward and the interface is clear. -Frank 4. Technical Description: 4.1 Background Amaranth is described in PSARC 2007/320 [1]. It collects device information through OS API on Solaris, Linux and Windows systems; compares the collected data with a driver database to determine whether there is a Solaris driver available for the device; and generates a report finally. 4.2 Proposal This project is to extend the OS coverage of Amaranth to include Mac OS X, so that Mac OS X users could easily know whether PCI devices in their system have drivers in Solaris OS. On Mac OS X, PCI device object could be enumerated with the 'IOPCIDevice' service. Then PCI device information could be retrieved from object properties. 4.5 Interfaces Interfaces Imported: ------------------------------------------------------------------ | Os Type | Interface | Purpose | ------------------------------------------------------------------ | Mac OS X| IOPCIDevice | Collecting PCI Device Information | ------------------------------------------------------------------ 6.
