From the upstream vendor's deployment guide[0]: "Later versions of the
2.6 kernel have made the /proc/ide/ and /proc/pci/ directories obsolete.
The /proc/ide/ file system is now superseded by files in sysfs; to
retrieve information on PCI devices, use lspci instead. For more
information on sysfs or lspci, refer to their respective man pages."
Therefore you should be able to find the same information from /sys
somewhere - where exactly is left as an exercise to the reader.
