42.Tn KL-11 Ns / Tn DL-11W
43line clock
44.Sh SYNOPSIS
45.Cd "kg0 at uba0 csr 0176500 vector kglock"
46.Sh DESCRIPTION
47NOTE: This driver has not been ported from
48.Bx 4.4
49yet.
50.Pp
51A
52.Tn KL-11
53or
54.Tn DL-11W
55can be used as an alternative real
56time clock
57source.  When configured, certain system
58statistics and, optionally, system profiling work
59will be collected each time the clock interrupts.  For
60optimum accuracy in profiling, the
61.Tn DL-11W
62should be
63configured to interrupt at the highest possible priority
64level.  The
65.Nm kg
66device driver automatically calibrates itself to the
67line clock frequency.

72The
73.Nm
