[BusyBox] Busybox wishlist

[Paul Whittaker]

Product: Busybox
Version: 1.0pre8

Two small utility programs that would be of use to many people (myself 
included) if they were to be included as Busybox applets are: 
[/sbin/]usbmodules and [/sbin/]pcimodules.

These programs map USB and PCI vendor and product IDs to module names 
using the /lib/modules/<kernel-release>/modules.{usbmap,pcimap} files 
generated by depmod from symbol tables in kernel modules.  They can form 
the basis of a very basic hotplug and/or coldplug system, which is 
becoming increasingly more important, particularly with respect to Linux 
2.6 kernels.

usbmodules is part of the usbutils distribution, whereas pcimodules is 
provided in a patch for the pciutils distribution (Google for 
pciutils-2.1.11-pcimodules-1.patch).

Just a suggestion.
