34.Sh SYNOPSIS
35.Cd "uk* at scsibus? target ? lun ?"
36.Sh DESCRIPTION
37The
38.Nm
39driver provides support for a process to address devices on the
40.Tn SCSI
41bus for which there is no configured driver.
42.Pp
43A
44.Tn SCSI
45adapter must also be separately configured into the system before
46this driver makes sense.
47.Sh KERNEL CONFIGURATION
48If a
49.Ar count
50is given, that number of
51.Nm
52devices will be configured into the
53.Nx
54kernel.
55.Sh IOCTLS
56The
57.Nm
58driver has no ioctls of its own but rather acts as a medium for the generic
59.Xr scsi 4
60ioctls.
61These are described in
62.In sys/scsiio.h .
