+.Sh NAME
+.Nm isl
+.Nd Intersil(TM) I2C ISL29018 sensor driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines into
+the kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "device isl"
+.Cd "device ig4"
+.Cd "device smbus"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in
+.Xr loader.conf 5 :
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+isl_load="YES"
+ig4_load="YES"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides access to sensor data provided by the Intersil(TM) I2C
+ISL29018 Digital Ambient Light Sensor and Proximity Sensor with Interrupt
+Function.
+Functionality is basic and provided through the
+.Xr sysctl 8
+interface.
+.Sh SYSCTL VARIABLES
+The following
+.Xr sysctl 8
+variables are available:
+.Bl -tag -width "dev.isl.X.resolution"
+.It Va dev.isl.X.als
+Current ALS (Ambient Light Sensor) readout.
+.It Va dev.isl.X.ir
+Current IR (InfraRed) sensor readout.
+.It Va dev.isl.X.prox
+Current proximity sensor readout.
+.It Va dev.isl.X.resolution
+Current sensor resolution.
+.It Va dev.isl.X.range
+Current sensor range.
+.El
+.Sh EXAMPLES
+.Ss Ambient light sensor read out
+.Bd -literal
+$ sysctl dev.isl.0.als
+dev.isl.0.als: 64
+.Ed
+.Ss Automatically adjust brightness
+This requires the port
+.Pa graphics/intel-backlight
+and only works with laptops using a supported Intel(R) GPU.
+.Bd -literal
+$ pkg install intel-backlight
+$ sh /usr/local/share/examples/intel-backlight/isl_backlight.sh
+.Ed
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr ig4 4 ,
+.Xr smbus 4

+This manual page was written by
+.An Michael Gmelin Aq Mt freebsd@grem.de .
+.Sh BUGS
+The
+.Nm
+driver detects the device based on its I2C address (0x44).
+This might have unforeseen consequences if the initialization sequence
+is sent to an unknown device at that address.
