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.
58They may be set in the kernel configuration file
59(see
60.Xr config 8 ) .
61.Bl -tag -width MOUSE
62.It Em KBD_RESETDELAY=X , KBD_MAXWAIT=Y
63The keyboard driver
64.Nm atkbd
65and the pointing device driver
66.Nm psm
67may ask the
68.Nm
69driver to reset these devices during the boot process.
70It sometimes takes a long time before these devices respond to
71the reset command.
72These options control how long the
73.Nm
74driver should
75wait before eventually giving up -- the driver will wait
76.Fa X
77*
78.Fa Y
79msecs at most.
80If the drivers seem unable to detect
81devices, you may want to increase these values.
82The default values are
83200 msec for
84.Fa X
85and 5
86for
87.Fa Y .
88.It Em KBDIO_DEBUG=N
89Sets the debug level to
90.Fa N .
91The default value is zero, which suppresses all debugging output.

103.Sh HISTORY
104The
105.Nm
106driver first appeared in
107.Fx 3.1 .
108It is based on the kbdio module in
109.Fx 2.2 .
