# Probe to see if the device is present. Return 0 if the device exists,
# ENXIO if it cannot be found. If some other error happens during the
# probe (such as a memory allocation failure), an appropriate error code
# should be returned. For cases where more than one driver matches a
# device, a priority value can be returned. In this case, success codes
# are values less than or equal to zero with the highest value representing
# the best match. Failure codes are represented by positive values and
# the regular unix error codes should be used for the purpose.
# If a driver returns a success code which is less than zero, it must
# not assume that it will be the same driver which is attached to the
# device. In particular, it must not assume that any values stored in
# the softc structure will be available for its attach method and any
# resources allocated during probe must be released and re-allocated
# if the attach method is called. If a success code of zero is
# returned, the driver can assume that it will be the one attached.
#
# Devices which implement busses should use this method to probe for
# the existence of devices attached to the bus and add them as
# children. If this is combined with the use of bus_generic_attach,
# the child devices will be automatically probed and attached.

/**
* @brief Probe to see if a device matches a driver.
*
* Users should not call this method directly. Normally, this
* is called via device_probe_and_attach() to select a driver
* calling the DEVICE_PROBE() of all candidate drivers and attach
* the winning driver (if any) to the device.
*
* This function is used to match devices to device drivers.
* Typically, the driver will examine the device to see if
* it is suitable for this driver. This might include checking
* the values of various device instance variables or reading
* hardware registers.
*
* In some cases, there may be more than one driver available
* which can be used for a device (for instance there might
* be a generic driver which works for a set of many types of
* device and a more specific driver which works for a subset
* of devices). Because of this, a driver should not assume
* that it will be the driver that attaches to the device even
* if it returns a success status from DEVICE_PROBE(). In particular,
* a driver must free any resources which it allocated during
* the probe before returning. The return value of DEVICE_PROBE()
* is used to elect which driver is used - the driver which returns
* the largest non-error value wins the election and attaches to
* the device.
*
* If a driver matches the hardware, it should set the device
* description string using device_set_desc() or
* device_set_desc_copy(). This string is
* used to generate an informative message when DEVICE_ATTACH()
* is called.
*
* As a special case, if a driver returns zero, the driver election
* is cut short and that driver will attach to the device
* immediately.
*
* For example, a probe method for a pci device driver might look
* like this:
*
* @code
* int foo_probe(device_t dev)
* {
* if (pci_get_vendor(dev) == FOOVENDOR &&
* pci_get_device(dev) == FOODEVICE) {
* device_set_desc(dev, "Foo device");
* return (0);
* }
* return (ENXIO);
* }
* @endcode
*
* To include this method in a device driver, use a line like this
* in the driver's method list:
*
* @code
* KOBJMETHOD(device_probe, foo_probe)
* @endcode
*
* @param dev the device to probe
*
* @retval 0 if the driver strongly matches this device
* @retval negative if the driver can match this device - the
* least negative value is used to select the
* driver
* @retval ENXIO if the driver does not match the device
* @retval positive if some kind of error was detected during
* the probe, a regular unix error code should
* be returned to indicate the type of error
* @see DEVICE_ATTACH(), pci_get_vendor(), pci_get_device()

/**
* @brief Called by a parent device to allow drivers to add new devices to the parent.
*
* The DEVICE_IDENTIFY() method is used by some drivers (e.g. the ISA bus driver)
* to help populate the bus device with a useful set of child devices, normally by
* calling the BUS_ADD_CHILD() method of the parent device. For instance,
* the ISA bus driver uses several special drivers, including the isahint driver and
* the pnp driver to create child devices based on configuration hints and PnP bus
* probes respectively.
*
* Many bus drivers which support true plug-and-play do not need to use this method
* at all since child devices can be discovered automatically without help from
* child drivers.
*
* To include this method in a device driver, use a line like this
* in the driver's method list:
*
* @code
* KOBJMETHOD(device_identify, foo_identify)
* @endcode
*
* @param driver the driver whose identify method is being called
* @param parent the parent device to use when adding new children
