NAME
       do_config - EISA/ISA: Initializes the device to its assigned configura‐
       tion

SYNOPSIS
       void do_config(
	       struct controller *ctlr_p );

ARGUMENTS
       Specifies a pointer to the controller  structure	 associated  with  the
       controller  to  be configured. The do_config routine obtains the device
       to initialize through its controller's associated controller  structure
       pointer.

DESCRIPTION
       The do_config routine initializes the specified controller based on its
       power-up resource assignments. If the device uses either	 an  interrupt
       or  a DMA channel, then do_config also performs any setup requirements.
       For example, for controllers that connect to the	 EISA  bus,  do_config
       initializes the controller according to the parameters specified in the
       EISA configuration file.

NOTES
       The do_config routine is a generic interface that maps  to  a  bus-spe‐
       cific  interface that actually initializes the specified device.	 Using
       this routine to initialize a device  makes  the	driver	more  portable
       across different bus architectures. Not all buses support the do_config
       routine.

RETURN VALUES
       None
