There is no function to get all PCI devices in a system by matching
against the base class code only, ignoring the sub-class code and
the programming interface. Add pci_get_base_class() to suit the
need.
For example, if a driver wants to process all PCI display devices in
a system, it can do so like this:
pdev = NULL;
while ((pdev = pci_get_base_class(PCI_BASE_CLASS_DISPLAY, pdev))) {
do_something_for_pci_display_device(pdev);
}

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.
