do_config

do_config(9r)															     do_config(9r)

NAME

       do_config - EISA/ISA: Initializes the device to its assigned configuration

SYNOPSIS

       void do_config(
	       struct controller *ctlr_p );

ARGUMENTS

       Specifies  a  pointer to the controller structure associated with the controller to be configured. The do_config routine obtains the device
       to initialize through its controller's associated controller structure pointer.

DESCRIPTION

       The do_config routine initializes the specified controller based on its power-up resource assignments. If the device uses either an  inter-
       rupt  or  a  DMA  channel,  then do_config also performs any setup requirements. For example, for controllers that connect to the EISA bus,
       do_config initializes the controller according to the parameters specified in the EISA configuration file.

NOTES

       The do_config routine is a generic interface that maps to a bus-specific interface that actually initializes the specified  device.   Using
       this  routine to initialize a device makes the driver more portable across different bus architectures. Not all buses support the do_config
       routine.

RETURN VALUES

       None
