The comment is quite weird, there is no such thing as a vendor-specific VPD id. 0x82 is the value of PCI_VPD_LRDT_ID_STRING. So what we are doing here is simply checking whether the byte at VPD address VPD_BASE is a valid string LRDT, same as what is done a few lines later in the code. LRDT = Large Resource Data Tag, see PCI 2.2 spec, VPD chapter v2: - don't set VPD_BASE / VPD_BASE_OLD separately Signed-off-by: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/644ef22f-e86a-5cc1-0f27-f873ab165696@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
