Unfortunately the first reply mail sent by you got deleted. I want to retrieve the PCI slot information from ACPI _SUN object from an application program. I saw the driver files in pci/hotplug/acpiphp_glue.c and acpiphp.h but, I could not access these functions/structures from an user space application program. Can the _SUN object be accessible from application programs "or" is it accessible only from Kernel Space (Driver programs)? So, Can you please give more details on how to access the _SUN object?
