Normally, this command is run automatically after a new +driver has been installed (with \fBadd_drv\fR(8)) and the system has been +rebooted. +.SH OPTIONS +.sp +.LP +The following options are supported: +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fB\fB-a\fR\fIalias_name\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 16n +Add the name \fIalias_name\fR to the list of aliases that this driver is known +by. This option, if used, must be used with the \fB-m\fR \fImajor_num\fR, the +\fB-b\fR and the \fB-i\fR \fIdrivername\fR options. +.RE + +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fB\fB-b\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 16n +Add a new major number to name binding into the kernel's internal +\fBname_to_major\fR tables. This option is not normally used directly, but is +used by other utilities such as \fBadd_drv\fR(8). Use of the \fB-b\fR option +requires that \fB-i\fR and \fB-m\fR be used also. No \fB/devices\fR entries are +created. +.RE + +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fB\fB-c\fR\fIclass_name\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 16n +The driver being added to the system exports the class \fIclass_name\fR. This +option is not normally used directly, but is used by other utilities. It is +only effective when used with the \fB-b\fR option. +.RE + +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fB\fB-i\fR\fIdrivername\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 16n +Only configure the devices for the named driver. The following options are used +by the implementation of \fBadd_drv\fR(8) and \fBrem_drv\fR(8), and may not +be supported in future versions of Solaris: +.RE + +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fB\fB-m\fR\fImajor_num\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 16n +Specify the major number \fImajor_num\fR for this driver to add to the kernel's +\fBname_to_major\fR binding tables. +.RE + +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fB\fB-n\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 16n +Do not try to load and attach any drivers, or if the \fB-i\fR option is given, +do not try to attach the driver named \fIdrivername\fR. +.RE + +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fB\fB-r\fR\fIroot_dir\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 16n +Perform operations under \fIroot_dir\fR, rather than directly under \fBroot\fR. +.RE + +.SH EXIT STATUS +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fB\fB0\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 12n +Successful completion. +.RE + +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fBnon-zero\fR +.ad +.RS 12n +An error occurred. +.RE + +.SH FILES +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fB\fB/devices\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 23n +Device nodes directory +.RE + +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fB\fB/etc/minor_perm\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 23n +Minor mode permissions +.RE + +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fB\fB/etc/name_to_major\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 23n +Major number binding +.RE + +.sp +.ne 2 +.na +\fB\fB/etc/driver_classes\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 23n +Driver class binding file +.RE + +.SH SEE ALSO +.sp +.LP +.BR sh (1), +.BR devfs (4FS), +.BR path_to_inst (5), +.BR attributes (7), +.BR add_drv (8), +.BR modinfo (8), +.BR modload (8), +.BR modunload (8), +.BR rem_drv (8), +.BR update_drv (8) |
