-.Sh NAME
-.Nm ppc
-.Nd
-Parallel port chipset driver
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Cd "device ppc0 at isa? port? flags 0xXX irq 7"
-.Pp
-For one or more PPBUS busses:
-.Cd "device ppbus at ppc0"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-driver provides low level support to various parallel port chipsets for the
-.Xr ppbus 4
-system.
-.Pp
-During the probe phase,
-.Nm
-detects parallel port chipsets and initializes
-private data according to their operating mode: COMPATIBLE,
-NIBBLE, PS/2, EPP, ECP and other mixed modes.
-If a mode is provided at startup through the
-.Va flags
-variable of the boot
-interface, the operating mode of the chipset is forced according to
-.Va flags
-and the hardware supported modes.
-.Pp
-During the attach phase,
-.Nm
-allocates a ppbus structure, initializes it and calls the ppbus
-attach function.
-.Ss Supported flags
-.Bl -item -offset indent
-.It
-bits 0-3: chipset forced mode(s)
-.Bd -literal
-PPB_COMPATIBLE 0x0 /* Centronics compatible mode */
-PPB_NIBBLE 0x1 /* reverse 4 bit mode */
-PPB_PS2 0x2 /* PS/2 byte mode */
-PPB_EPP 0x4 /* EPP mode, 32 bit */
-PPB_ECP 0x8 /* ECP mode */
-.Ed
-.Pp
-And any mixed values.
-.It
-bit 4: EPP protocol (0 EPP 1.9, 1 EPP 1.7)
-.It
-bit 5: activate IRQ (1 IRQ disabled, 0 IRQ enabled)
-.It
-bit 6: disable chipset specific detection
-.It
-bit 7: disable FIFO detection
-.El
-.Ss Supported chipsets
-Some parallel port chipsets are explicitly supported:
-detection and initialisation code has been written according to
-their datasheets.
-.Bl -bullet -offset indent
-.It
-SMC FDC37C665GT and FDC37C666GT chipsets
-.It
-Natsemi PC873xx-family (PC87332 and PC87306)
-.It
-Winbond W83877xx-family (W83877F and W83877AF)
-.It
-SMC-like chipsets with mixed modes (see
-.Xr ppbus 4 )
-.El
-.Ss Adding support to a new chipset
-You may want to add support for the newest chipset your motherboard was
-sold with.
-For the ISA bus, just retrieve the specs of the chipset and write the
-corresponding
-.Fn ppc_mychipset_detect ""
-function.
-Then add an entry to the general purpose
-.Fn ppc_detect ""
-function.
-.Pp
-Your
-.Fn ppc_mychipset_detect ""
-function should ensure that if the mode field of the
-.Va flags
-boot variable is not null, then the operating
-mode is forced to the given mode and no other mode is available and
-ppb->ppb_avm field contains the available modes of the chipset.
-.Sh SEE ALSO
-.Xr ppbus 4 ,
-.Xr ppi 4
-.Sh BUGS
-The chipset detection process may corrupt your chipset configuration.
-You may
-disable chipset specific detection by using the above flags.

-The
-.Nm
-manual page first appeared in
-.Fx 3.0 .
