It's a lot of magic. :) Each driver is a kernel module declared via
DRIVER_MODULE():
#define DRIVER_MODULE(name, busname, driver, devclass, evh, arg) \
\
static struct driver_module_data name##_##busname##_driver_mod = { \
evh, arg, \
#busname, \
(kobj_class_t) &driver, \
&devclass \
}; \
\
static moduledata_t name##_##busname##_mod = { \
#busname "/" #name, \
driver_module_handler, \
&name##_##busname##_driver_mod \
}; \
DECLARE_MODULE(name##_##busname, name##_##busname##_mod, \
SI_SUB_DRIVERS, SI_ORDER_MIDDLE)
This causes driver_module_handler() to be run at SI_SUB_DRIVERS for each
driver in the kernel. One of the things that function does is add the driver
to the parent driver's devclass:
int
driver_module_handler(module_t mod, int what, void *arg)
{
...
switch (what) {
case MOD_LOAD:
...
driver = dmd->dmd_driver;
PDEBUG(("Loading module: driver %s on bus %s",
DRIVERNAME(driver), dmd->dmd_busname));
error = devclass_add_driver(bus_devclass, driver);
if (error)
break;
...
}
That adds the driver to the dc_drivers list. Thus, when you see:
DRIVER_MODULE(legacy, nexus, legacy_driver, legacy_devclass, 0, 0);
in legacy.c, that results in legacy_driver being attached to the devclass for
the nexus driver.
