Add in the adv(4) and adw(4) man pages for the AdvanSys narrow and wide
SCSI controllers, respectively. Once these drivers are tested on the alpha, these man pages can probably be moved up a directory to reflect the fact that they're architecture independent. An mdoc guru should probably look at the AUTHORS sections in both of these pages -- the .An macro seems to cause strange spacing problems. Reviewed by: ken Submitted by: gibbs

+.Sh NAME
+.Nm adw
+.Nd Advansys PCI 16bit SCSI Host adapter driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd controller pci0
+.Cd controller adw0
+.Pp
+For one or more SCSI busses:
+.Cd controller scbus0 at adw0
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+This driver provides access to the 16bit
+.Tn SCSI
+bus connected to the Advanced Systems Products, Inc.
+.Tn ASC3550
+as found on the ABP940UW SCSI Host Adapter board. This chip
+supports, Ultra SCSI (20MHz), 16bit transfers, tagged queueing,
+and up to 253 concurrent SCSI transactions.
+.Pp
+Per target configuration performed in the
+.Tn AdvanceWare
+menu, which is accessible at boot,
+is honored by this driver.
+This includes synchronous/asynchronous transfers,
+maximum synchronous negotiation rate, wide transfers, disconnection,
+tagged queueing, and the host adapter's SCSI ID.
+The global setting for the maximum number of tagged transactions allowed
+per target is not honored as the CAM SCSI system will automatically determine
+the maximum number of tags a device can receive as well as guarantee fair
+resource allocation among devices.
