Is there a standard API for read/write of PCI config space using sysfs?

Open the "config" file and read and write the offset that you want to
read/write.
Does that not work for you?

That's real simple. I was trying to find a more complicated, harder solution. I
need the PCI space for the VM86 emulation of the VBIOS calls.
Is libsysfs going to be part of klibc? I can link it in statically for now.
And I should use something like execl (seems to be in klibc) to call udev to
query for it's directory and my path?

They are two different, separate things, and will stay that way.

"my path"? What does that mean?

My DEVPATH, /class/dri/card0 so that I can do:
udev -q /class/dri/card0
and get the path to my device:
dri/card0
and combine it with:
udev -r
which returns
/udev/
So that I can build the path to my device:
/udev/dri/card0

That is your device node that udev created, right?

Yes, then you can do whatever operations on that device node you want
to.
But if you want to touch the PCI config stuff for your device, just go
off of the DEVPATH. There should be a "device" symlink in your
/class/dri/card0/ directory that points to the pci device directory,
right?
Anyway, it sounds like you are on the right path...
thanks,
