28.Sh NAME
29.Nm ispfw
30.Nd "Firmware Module for Qlogic based SCSI and FibreChannel SCSI Host Adapters"
31.Sh SYNOPSIS
32To compile this driver into the kernel,
33place the following line in your
34kernel configuration file:
35.Bd -ragged -offset indent
36.Cd "device ispfw"
37.Ed
38.Pp
39This will compile firmware images for all
40.Xr isp 4
41devices into the kernel.
42.Pp
43Alternatively, to load the driver as a
44module at boot time, place the following lines in
45.Xr loader.conf 5 :
46.Bd -literal -offset indent
47isp_1040_load="YES"
48isp_1040_it_load="YES"
49isp_1080_load="YES"

61.Ed
62.Sh DESCRIPTION
63This trivial driver provides access to firmware sets for the Qlogic
64based SCSI and FibreChannel SCSI Host Adapters.
65It may either be
66statically linked into the kernel, or loaded as a module.
67In either
68case, the
69.Xr isp 4
70driver will notice that firmware is available to be downloaded onto
71Qlogic cards (to replace the usually out of date firmware on the cards).
72This will kick the f/w into getting unstuck.
