+.Nd find node in device tree
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In dev/ofw/ofw_bus.h
+.In dev/ofw/ofw_bus_subr.h
+.Ft phandle_t
+.Fn OF_finddevice "const char *path"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Fn OF_finddevice
+returns the phandle for the node specified by the
+.Fa path .
+Returns -1 if the path cannot be found in the tree.
+.Sh EXAMPLES
+.Bd -literal
+ phandle_t root, i2c;
+
+ root = OF_finddevice("/");
+ i2c = OF_finddevice("/soc/axi/i2c@a0e0000");
+ if (i2c != -1) {

+.Sh CAVEATS
+The return value should only be checked with equality
+operators (equal to, not equal to) and not relational comparison
+(less than, greater than ).
+There is a discrepancy between IEEE 1275 standard and
+.Fx Ns 's
+internal representation of a phandle: IEEE 1275
+requires the return value of this function to be -1 if the path
+is not found.
+But phandle_t is an unsigned type, so it cannot
+be relationally compared with -1 or 0, this comparison
+is always true or always false.
