26.Dt IXPIDE 4
27.Os
28.Sh NAME
29.Nm ixpide
30.Nd PCI IDE disk controllers driver
31.Sh SYNOPSIS
32.Cd "ixpide* at pci? dev ? function ? flags 0x0000"
33.Sh DESCRIPTION
34The
35.Nm
36driver supports the ATI Technologies IXP IDE controller, and provides the
37interface with the hardware for the
38.Xr ata 4
39driver.
40.Pp
41The 0x0002 flag forces the
42.Nm
43driver to disable DMA on chipsets for which DMA would normally be
44enabled.
45This can be used as a debugging aid, or to work around
46problems where the IDE controller is wired up to the system incorrectly.
47.Sh HARDWARE
48The supported IDE controllers are
49.Bl -bullet -compact

71selected in the system BIOS, but work fine in AHCI mode.
