I have a question about how the kernel add all devices. For example, in NetBSD, I can find the code in /sys/kern/init_main.c: /* Attach pseudo-devices. */ for (pdev = pdevinit; pdev->pdev_attach != NULL; pdev++) (*pdev->pdev_attach)(pdev->pdev_count); I know the NetBSD kernel add devices(such as storage device and network device) by them. But in FreeBSD, I can not locate the place. which part code should I read? Thank you. Best Regards Ouyang KaiGet more from the Web. FREE MSN Explorer download : http://explorer.msn.com

Hi Everybody,
I am a jackaroo to FreeBSD kernel. I have a question about how the kernel add all devices.
For example, in NetBSD, I can find the code in /sys/kern/init_main.c:
/* Attach pseudo-devices. */
for (pdev = pdevinit; pdev->pdev_attach != NULL; pdev++)
(*pdev->pdev_attach)(pdev->pdev_count);
I know the NetBSD kernel add devices(such as storage device and network device) by them.
But in FreeBSD, I can not locate the place.
which part code should I read?
Thank you.

Best Regards
Ouyang Kai
