.Dd January 6, 2005 .Dt DEVICE_ATTACH 9 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm DEVICE_ATTACH .Nd attach a device .Sh SYNOPSIS n sys/param.h n sys/bus.h .Ft int .Fn DEVICE_ATTACH "device_t dev" .Sh DESCRIPTION Attach a device to the system after the .Fn DEVICE_PROBE method has been called and has indicated that the device exists. The .Fn DEVICE_ATTACH method should initialize the hardware and allocate other system resources (such as .Xr devfs 5 entries).
p 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 .Xr bus_generic_attach 9 the child devices will be automatically probed and attached. .Sh RETURN VALUES Zero is returned on success, otherwise an appropriate error is returned. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr devfs 5 , .Xr device 9 , .Xr DEVICE_DETACH 9 , .Xr DEVICE_IDENTIFY 9 , .Xr DEVICE_PROBE 9 , .Xr DEVICE_SHUTDOWN 9 .Sh AUTHORS This manual page was written by .An Doug Rabson Aq dfr@FreeBSD.org .
