Hello Genodians
While debugging https://github.com/genodelabs/genode/issues/4538, I'm
having trouble using the new `platfomr_drv` for the PC platform. From
the release notes of 22.05, it seems that the new component `pci_decode`
should be used to create the list of PCI devices.
Searching for this on master and staging I only find the component's
source and its mention in the release notes - but not how it's used. I
therefore extended my search. In the repository of skalk, I have found
the branch `nvme_drv`, which adapts the NVMe driver for the new platform
driver.
When I execute the run-script from this branch on different platforms
(x86_64 qemu, an Intel 8th gen up-xtreme and my Intel 11700),
`pci_decode` doesn't report any PCI devices.
Are there any further requirements to use the new platform driver on PC?
Best regards
Pirmin
