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

NAME

     device_printf -- formatted output conversion

SYNOPSIS

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

     int
     device_printf(device_t dev, const char *fmt, ...);

DESCRIPTION

     The device_printf() function is a convenience interface to the printf(9) function.  It outputs the name of the dev device, followed by a
     colon and a space, and then what printf(9) would print if you passed fmt and the remaining arguments to it.

RETURN VALUES

     The device_printf() function returns the number of characters displayed.

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

NAME

     BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR, bus_describe_intr -- associate a description with an active interrupt handler

SYNOPSIS

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

     int
     BUS_BIND_INTR(device_t dev, device_t child, struct resource *irq, void *cookie, const char *descr);

     int
     bus_describe_intr(device_t dev, struct resource *irq, void *cookie, const char *fmt, ...);

DESCRIPTION

     The BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR() method associates a description with an active interrupt handler.	The cookie parameter must be the value returned by
     a successful call to BUS_SETUP_INTR(9) for the interrupt irq.

     The bus_describe_intr() function is a simple wrapper around BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR().  As a convenience, bus_describe_intr() allows the caller to
     use printf(9) style formatting to build the description string using fmt.

     When an interrupt handler is established by BUS_SETUP_INTR(9), the handler is named after the device the handler is established for.  This
     name is then used in various places such as interrupt statistics displayed by systat(1) and vmstat(8).  For devices that use a single inter-
     rupt, the device name is sufficiently unique to identify the interrupt handler.  However, for devices that use multiple interrupts it can be
     useful to distinguish the interrupt handlers.  When a description is set for an active interrupt handler, a colon followed by the description
     is appended to the device name to form the interrupt handler name.

RETURN VALUES

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

     systat(1), vmstat(8), BUS_SETUP_INTR(9), device(9), printf(9)

HISTORY

     The BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR() method and bus_describe_intr() functions first appeared in FreeBSD 8.1.

BUGS

     It is not currently possible to remove a description from an active interrupt handler.
