Re: Forcing device loss for debugging

Under the sysfs directory for each PCI device you should have a virtual 
file called "remove".

So if you just do an "echo 1 > /sys/devices/pci..../remove" you 
basically simulate hot unplugging the specific PCI device

IIRC the PCI bridge where the device is connected to should then have a 
"rescan" virtual device which triggers hot plugging the device back in 
again when written.

Christian.
