34 To compile this driver into the kernel, add the following lines to the
35 kernel configuration file:
36 .Bd -ragged -offset indent
40 To load the driver as a module at boot, add this line to
42 .Bd -literal -offset indent
48 driver provides a unified kernel bus interface to the on-chip
49 interconnects used in Broadcom Home Networking Division (HND)
52 The Broadcom HND device family consists of SoCs (System On a Chip)
53 and host-connected chipsets based on a common library of Broadcom IP
54 cores connected via an internal hardware bus architecture.
55 Drivers for these cores are implemented against the unified
