-<p class="Pp">During the probe phase, <code class="Nm">ppc</code> detects
- parallel port chipsets and initializes private data according to their
- operating mode: COMPATIBLE, NIBBLE, PS/2, EPP, ECP and other mixed modes. If
- a mode is provided at startup through the <var class="Va">flags</var>
- variable of the boot interface, the operating mode of the chipset is forced
- according to <var class="Va">flags</var> and the hardware supported
- modes.</p>
-<p class="Pp">During the attach phase, <code class="Nm">ppc</code> allocates a
- ppbus structure, initializes it and calls the ppbus attach function.</p>
