Overview

This function is called during autoconfiguration to initialise the devices in the system. For each device, the DEVICE_PROBE(9) method of each suitable driver is called and if a probe succeeds, a description of the device is printed and the DEVICE_ATTACH(9) method is called. If the device is disabled using device_disable(9) then it will not be probed.

Return values

Zero is returned on success, otherwise an appropriate error is returned.
