27.Dt WD 4
28.Os
29.Sh NAME
30.Nm wd
31.Nd WD100x compatible hard disk driver
32.Sh SYNOPSIS
33.Cd "wd* at wdc? flags 0x0000"
34.Cd "wd* at pciide? flags 0x0000"
35.Sh DESCRIPTION
36The
37.Nm
38driver supports hard disks which emulate the Western Digital WD100x.
39This includes standard MFM, RLL, ESDI, IDE, and EIDE drives, as well as
40Serial ATA drives, and PCMCIA/CF storage media.
41.Pp
42The
43.Cm flags
44are used only with controllers that support DMA operations and
45mode settings (like some
46.Xr pciide 4
47controllers).
48The lowest order (rightmost) nibble of the
49.Cm flags
50define the PIO mode to use.
51The next four bits indicate the DMA mode and the third nibble the UltraDMA
52mode.
53.Pp
54For each set of four bits, the 3 lower bits define the mode to use
55and the last bit must be set to 1 for this setting to be used.
56For DMA and UltraDMA, 0xf (1111) means
57.Dq disable .
58For example, a
59.Cm flags
60value of 0x0fac (1111 1010 1100)
61means
62.Do
63use PIO mode 4, DMA mode 2, disable UltraDMA
64.Dc .
65The special setting 0x0000 means
66.Dq use whatever the drive claims to support .
