32.Sh NAME
33.Nm atkbdc
34.Nd the AT keyboard controller interface
35.Sh SYNOPSIS
36.Cd "options KBD_RESETDELAY=N"
37.Cd "options KBD_MAXWAIT=N"
38.Cd "options KBDIO_DEBUG=N"
39.Cd "device atkbdc0 at isa? port IO_KBD"
40.Sh DESCRIPTION
41The keyboard controller
42.Nm
43provides I/O services for the AT keyboard and PS/2 mouse style
44pointing devices.
45This controller is required for the keyboard driver
46.Nm atkbd
47and the PS/2 pointing device driver
48.Nm psm .
49.Pp
50There can be only one
51.Nm
52device configured in the system.
53.Sh DRIVER CONFIGURATION
54.Ss Kernel Configuration Options
55The following kernel configuration options can be used to control the
56.Nm
57driver.
58.Bl -tag -width MOUSE
59.It Em KBD_RESETDELAY=X , KBD_MAXWAIT=Y
60The keyboard driver
61.Nm atkbd
62and the pointing device driver
63.Nm psm
64may ask the
65.Nm
66driver to reset these devices during the boot process.
67It sometimes takes a long time before these devices respond to
68the reset command.
69These options control how long the
70.Nm
71driver should
72wait before eventually giving up -- the driver will wait
73.Fa X
74*
75.Fa Y
76msecs at most.
77If the drivers seem unable to detect
78devices, you may want to increase these values.
79The default values are
80200 msec for
81.Fa X
82and 5
83for
84.Fa Y .
85.It Em KBDIO_DEBUG=N
86Sets the debug level to
87.Fa N .
88The default value is zero, which suppresses all debugging output.
