.Dd June 3, 2016 .Dt BHND 4 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm bhnd .Nd Broadcom Home Networking Division interconnect bus .Sh SYNOPSIS To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file: d -ragged -offset indent .Cd "device bhnd" .Ed

p Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in .Xr loader.conf 5 : d -literal -offset indent bhnd_load="YES" .Ed .Sh DESCRIPTION The .Nm driver provides a unified kernel bus interface to the on-chip interconnects used in Broadcom Home Networking Division (HND) devices.

p The Broadcom HND device family consists of SoCs (System On a Chip) and host-connected chipsets based on a common library of Broadcom IP cores connected via an internal hardware bus architecture. Drivers for these cores are implemented against the unified .Nm interface.

p The Sonic Inc. Silicon Backplane used in earlier HND devices is supported by the .Xr siba 4 BHND driver.

p The ARM AMBA-based interconnect used in later HND devices is supported by the .Xr bcma 4 BHND driver. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr bhndb 4 , .Xr bcma 4 , .Xr siba 4 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm device driver first appeared in .Fx 11.0 . .Sh AUTHORS .An -nosplit The .Nm driver was written by .An Landon Fuller Aq Mt landonf@FreeBSD.org .
