Implementing the Autoconfiguration

Support Section (probe)

The autoconfiguration support section contains the code that implements a
network device driver’s

probe

interface. A network device driver’s

probe

interface determines whether the network device exists and is functional on
a given system. The bus configuration code calls the driver’s

probe

interface.

The

if_el

driver operates on the ISA and PCMCIA bus. For the PCMCIA

bus, it provides a driver-specific routine that is called when a user removes
the card from the slot. For the ISA bus, the driver provides routines to reset,
activate, and read from hardware registers. These routines are specific to
the

if_el

device driver. To learn how the driver handles these tasks, see

the source listing in the examples directory that is installed with the device
driver kit.

The following sections describe how to use the

probe

interface:

Implementing the

el_probe( )

routine (Section 5.1)

Implementing the

el_shutdown( )

routine (Section 5.2)

Implementing the

el_autosense_thread( )

routine (Section 5.3)

5.1 Implementing the el_probe Routine

The

el_probe( )

routine performs the following tasks:

Checks the maximum number of devices that the driver supports
(Section 5.1.2)

Performs bus-specific tasks (Section 5.1.3)

Allocates memory for the

softc

and

ether_driver

data structures

(Section 5.1.4 and Section 5.1.5)

Initializes the enhanced hardware management data structure
(Section 5.1.6)

Computes the control and status register addresses (Section 5.1.7)

Sets bus-specific data structure members (Section 5.1.8)

If this is the first time the device has been probed, copies data from the
EEPROM, reads and saves the device’s physical address and starts the
autosense kernel thread to determine the media type (Section 5.1.9)

Implementing the Autoconfiguration Support Section (probe) 5–1
