FDTBUS(4) FreeBSD Kernel Interfaces Manual FDTBUS(4)
NAME
fdtbus - Flattened Device Tree bus driver
SYNOPSIS
options FDT
DESCRIPTION
The fdtbus abstract bus driver is the primary connection and translation
layer between fdt(4) hardware resources description and FreeBSD native
newbus device drivers framework. For an embedded system fdtbus
represents peripherals typically found on a highly integrated chip
(system-on-chip).
The fdtbus driver provides generic, common infrastructure for all fdt(4)
oriented device drivers, and its main responsibilities are the following:
o Creating newbus children that reflect fdt(4) nodes in the flattened
device tree.
o Managing SYS_RES_IRQ resources.
o Managing SYS_RES_MEMORY, SYS_RES_IOPORT resources.
