It fills in a .Vt moduledata_t structure and then calls .Fn DECLARE_MODULE with the correct args, where .Fa name is the name of the module and .Fa evh (with its argument .Fa arg ) is the event handler for the module (refer to .Xr DECLARE_MODULE 9 for more information). The event handler is supposed to create the device with .Fn make_dev on load and to destroy it when it is unloaded using .Fn destroy_dev . .Sh EXAMPLES .Bd -literal #include #include static struct dev_ops foo_ops = { ... }; static cdev_t sdev; static int foo_load(module_t mod, int cmd, void *arg) { int err = 0; dev_ops_add(&foo_ops, ...); switch (cmd) { case MOD_LOAD: sdev = make_dev(&foo_ops, 0, UID_ROOT, GID_WHEEL, 0600, "foo"); /* We must obtain a reference to sdev, so we can destroy it later */ reference_dev(sdev); break; /* Success*/ case MOD_UNLOAD: case MOD_SHUTDOWN: destroy_dev(sdev); /* The same mask and match must be specified, as in dev_ops_add() */ dev_ops_remove(&foo_ops, ...); break; /* Success*/ default: err = EINVAL; break; } return(err); } DEV_MODULE(foo, foo_load, NULL); .Ed .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr DECLARE_MODULE 9 , .Xr destroy_dev 9 , .Xr make_dev 9 , .Xr module 9 .Sh AUTHORS This manual page was written by .An Alexander Langer Aq Mt alex@FreeBSD.org .
