Each driver has its own configuration table and its +chip specific attach routine must be called by a board specific +attach routine. The board specific chip routine passes the chip +configuration and network configuration to the resuable device driver. + +The reusable chip drivers do not directly access the controller. +They access the registers on the controller via a set of +functions which are provided by the BSP. These functions set and get +general registers and data buffers. + |
