DEVICE_ATTACH — attach a device
Contents
Description
Attach a device to the system after the DEVICE_PROBE() method has been called and has indicated that the
device exists. The DEVICE_ATTACH() method should initialize the hardware and allocate other system
resources (such as devfs(5) entries).
Devices which implement buses 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 bus_generic_attach(9) the child
devices will be automatically probed and attached.
