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

NAME
     BUS_ADD_CHILD -- add a device node to the tree with a given priority

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

     int
     BUS_ADD_CHILD(device_t dev, int order, const char *name, int unit);

DESCRIPTION
     The BUS_ADD_CHILD() method is used by the driver identify routine to add devices to the tree.  Please see device_add_child(9) for more
     details.  The interface is the same as device_add_child(9) however, the bus' BUS_ADD_CHILD() is called.

     Busses implementing BUS_ADD_CHILD() should insert the device into the tree using device_add_child(9) before adding things such as their own
     ivars and resource lists to the device.

RETURN VALUES
     The BUS_ADD_CHILD() method returns device_t added to the tree, or NULL.
