BUS_PRINT_CHILD(9)					   BSD Kernel Developer's Manual					BUS_PRINT_CHILD(9)

NAME

     BUS_PRINT_CHILD -- print information about a device

SYNOPSIS

     #include <sys/param.h>
     #include <sys/bus.h>

     int
     BUS_PRINT_CHILD(device_t dev, device_t child);

DESCRIPTION

     The BUS_PRINT_CHILD() method is called from system code which prints out a description of a device.  It should describe the attachment that
     the child has with the parent.  For instance the TurboLaser bus prints which node the device is attached to.  Please see
     bus_generic_print_child(9) for more information regarding the proper formatting of the messages printed by BUS_PRINT_CHILD().

RETURN VALUES

     The number of characters output.

DEVICE_ATTACH(9)					   BSD Kernel Developer's Manual					  DEVICE_ATTACH(9)

NAME

     DEVICE_ATTACH -- attach a device

SYNOPSIS

     #include <sys/param.h>
     #include <sys/bus.h>

     int
     DEVICE_ATTACH(device_t dev);

DESCRIPTION

     Attach a device to the system after the DEVICE_PROBE() method has been called and has indicated that the device exists.  The DEVICE_ATTACH()
     method should initialize the hardware and allocate other system resources (such as devfs(5) entries).

     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(9) the child devices will be automatically probed and attached.

RETURN VALUES

     Zero is returned on success, otherwise an appropriate error is returned.
