Hi, 

I have some problems understanding how resources like the I/O Port or IRQ
are set from a loadable kernel module. 
I tried to construct a module to access the generic joystick port on the
isa bus. But i don't understand how the resources are set for the port. 
Is it right to do a BUS_ADD_CHILD call in the identify method and then
call the bus_set_resource function to set the I/O port ? 
If it is so, where can i find the definition for BUS_ADD_CHILD ? 
I don't know what this function exactly does. 
Perhaps there are other ways to solve my problem. I hope you can help
me. 

Thanks in advance, 

Oliver Fleischmann
