bhnd — Broadcom Home Networking Division interconnect bus

       The bhnd driver was written by Landon Fuller <landonf@FreeBSD.org>.

Debian                                            June 3, 2016                                           BHND(4)

       The  bhnd  driver  provides  a unified kernel bus interface to the on-chip interconnects used in Broadcom
       Home Networking Division (HND) devices.

       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 bhnd interface.

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

       The ARM AMBA-based interconnect used in later HND devices is supported by the bcma(4) BHND driver.

       The bhnd device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 11.0.
