.Dt DEVICE_IDENTIFY 9
.Os
.Sh NAME
.Nm DEVICE_IDENTIFY
.Nd identify a device, register it
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Fd #include <sys/param.h>
.Fd #include <sys/bus.h>
.Ft void
.Fn DEVICE_IDENTIFY "driver_t *driver" "device_t parent"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The identify function for a device is only needed for devices on busses
that cannot identify their childs independently, e.g. the ISA bus.
It is used to recognize the device (usually done by accessing non-ambigous
registers in the hardware) and to tell the kernel about it and thus
creating a new device instance.
.Pp
.Xr BUS_ADD_CHILD 9
is used to register the device as a child of the bus.
The device's resources (such as IRQ and I/O ports) are registered
with the kernel by calling
.Fn bus_set_resource
for each resource (refer to
.Xr bus_set_resource 9
for more information).
.Sh EXAMPLES
The following pseudo-code shows an example of a function that
probes for a piece of hardware and registers it and its resource
(an I/O port) with the kernel.
It also sets the description of the device.
.Bd -literal
void
foo_identify(driver_t *driver, device_t parent)
{
device_t child;
retrieve_device_information;
if (devices matches one of your supported devices) {
child = BUS_ADD_CHILD(parent, 0, "foo", -1);
device_set_desc_copy(child, "foo chip ver.123");
device_set_driver(child, driver);
bus_set_resource(child, SYS_RES_IOPORT, 0, FOO_IOADDR, 1);
}
}
.Ed
.Sh RETURN VALUES
Zero is returned on success,
otherwise an appropriate error is returned (see
.Xr errno 2 ) .
