description
pccardctl
is used to monitor and control the state of PCMCIA sockets.
If a socket number is specified, the command will be applied
to just one socket; otherwise, all sockets will be
affected.
If
pccardctl is executed by root, all commands are
available. If it is executed by an unpriviledged user, only
the informational commands are accessible.
lspcmcia
is an alias for pccardctl ls, provided for
convenience.
options
-V
Show version information and
exit.
-v
Increase the verbosity of the ls command. Giving
this option twice increases verbosity further.
commands
status
Display the current socket status flags.
config
Display the socket configuration, including power settings,
interrupt and I/O window settings, and configuration registers.
--not yet implemented
ident
Display card identification information, including product
identification strings, manufacturer ID codes, and function ID
codes. Not yet implemented for cardbus cards. Use lspci instead.
info
Much like the ident command, but its output is formatted
as a series of Bourne-stype shell variable definitions for use in
scripts. Not yet implemented for cardbus cards.
ls
Display extended debugging information about the PCMCIA sockets
and devices present in the system.
suspend
Shut down and then disable power for a socket.
resume
Restore power to a socket, and re-configure for use.
eject
Notify all client drivers that this card will be ejected, then
cut power to the socket.
insert
Notify all client drivers that this card has just been inserted.
