Hi Greg,

I have described the fields in the commit message of patch 1. Here they are:

usb <test_name> <controller_address>[,<additional_match>] <ports_path> <configuration> <interfaces>

pci <test_name> <controller_address> <device-function_pairs_path>

I'm aware that bus IDs are assigned at runtime, and that's exactly why I've
avoided those in the test definitions, instead describing the hardware topology,
which won't ever change.

And just to be extra clear, by hardware topology I mean:

For USB, we find the USB bus based on the address of its controller (and
optionally its productID if two busses share the same controller for USB2 and
USB3), and then find the device by following the ports at each hub. The
configuration number and interfaces then describe what interfaces to check for
presence and driver binding.

For PCI, we find the controller again based on its address, and follow the
device-function pairs at each level in the topology until we arrive at the
desired device.

We don't rely on the USB bus number, nor on the PCI domain and bus number, since
these are all assigned at runtime.

Thanks,
N?colas
