.Sh NAME

.Nm DEVICE_ATTACH
|
|
.Nd attach a device
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/param.h
|
|
.In sys/bus.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn DEVICE_ATTACH "device_t dev"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
Attach a device to the system after the
|
|
.Fn DEVICE_PROBE
|
|
method has been called and has indicated that
|
|
the device exists.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn DEVICE_ATTACH
|
|
method should initialize the hardware and allocate other
|
|
system resources (such as
|
|
.Xr devfs 5
|
|
entries).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
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
|
|
.Xr bus_generic_attach 9
|
|
the child devices will be automatically probed and attached.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Zero is returned on success, otherwise an appropriate error is returned.
