.Cm reset
.Op Fl d
.Ar device
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
utility adjusts the state of individual devices in the kernel's
internal device hierarchy.
Each invocation of
.Nm
consists of a single command followed by command-specific arguments.
Each command operates on a single device specified via the
.Ar device
argument.
The
.Ar device
may be specified either as the name of an existing device or as a
bus-specific address.
More details on supported address formats can be found in
.Xr devctl 3 .
.Pp
The following commands are supported:
.Bl -tag -width indent
.It Cm attach Ar device
Force the kernel to re-probe the device.
If a suitable driver is found,
it is attached to the device.
.It Xo Cm detach
.Op Fl f
.Ar device
.Xc
Detach the device from its current device driver.
If the
.Fl f
flag is specified,
the device driver will be detached even if the device is busy.
.It Xo Cm disable
.Op Fl f
.Ar device
.Xc
Disable a device.
If the device is currently attached to a device driver,
the device driver will be detached from the device,
but the device will retain its current name.
If the
.Fl f
flag is specified,
the device driver will be detached even if the device is busy.
.It Cm enable Ar device
Enable a device.
The device will probe and attach if a suitable device driver is found.
Note that this can re-enable a device disabled at boot time via a
loader tunable.
.It Cm suspend Ar device
Suspend a device.
This may include placing the device in a reduced power state.
.It Cm resume Ar device
Resume a suspended device to a fully working state.
.It Xo Cm set driver
.Op Fl f
.Ar device driver
.Xc
Force the device to use a device driver named
.Ar driver .
If the device is already attached to a device driver and the
.Fl f
flag is specified,
the device will be detached from its current device driver before it is
attached to the new device driver.
If the device is already attached to a device driver and the
.Fl f
flag is not specified,
the device will not be changed.
.It Xo Cm clear driver
.Op Fl f
.Ar device
.Xc
Clear a previously-forced driver name so that the device is able to use any
valid device driver.
After the previous name has been cleared,
the device is reprobed so that other device drivers may attach to it.
This can be used to undo an earlier
.Cm set driver
command.
If the device is currently attached to a device driver and the
.Fl f
flag is not specified,
the device will not be changed.
.It Cm rescan Ar device
Rescan a bus device checking for devices that have been added or
removed.
.It Xo Cm delete
.Op Fl f
.Ar device
.Xc
Delete the device from the device tree.
If the
.Fl f
flag is specified,
the device will be deleted even if it is physically present.
This command should be used with care as a device that is deleted but present
can no longer be used unless the parent bus device rediscovers the device via
a rescan request.
.It Xo Cm reset
.Op Fl d
.Ar device
.Xc
Reset the device, using bus-specific reset method.
Drivers for the devices being reset are suspended around the reset.
If the
.Fl d
option is specified, drivers are detached instead.
.Pp
Currently, resets are implemented for PCIe buses and PCI devices.
For PCIe bus, the link is disabled and then re-trained, causing all
children of the bus to reset.
Use
.Fl p
option of
.Xr devinfo 8
tool to report parent bus for the device.
For PCI device, if Function-Level Reset is implemented by it, FLR is
tried first; if failed or not implemented, power reset is tried.
.Pp
If you have detached or suspended a child device explicitly and then
do a reset, the child device will end up attached.

.Sh HISTORY
The
.Nm
utility first appeared in
.Fx 10.3 .
.Sh BUGS
Currently there is no administrative flag to prevent re-attach or resume
of the manually detached or suspended devices after reset.
Similarly, there is no flag to prevent un-suspending of the the manually
suspended devices after system resume.
