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

NAME

     bus_generic_attach -- generic implementation of DEVICE_ATTACH for busses

SYNOPSIS

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

     int
     bus_generic_attach(device_t dev);

DESCRIPTION

     This function provides an implementation of the DEVICE_ATTACH(9) method which can be used by most bus code.  It simply calls
     device_probe_and_attach(9) for each child device attached to the bus.

RETURN VALUES

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

SEE ALSO

     device(9), driver(9)

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.
