+.Sh NAME
+.Nm pcii
+.Nd National Instruments PCIIA GPIB controller driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "device pcii"
+.Pp
+In
+.Pa /boot/device.hints :
+.Cd hint.pcii.0.at="isa"
+.Cd hint.pcii.0.port="0x2e1"
+.Cd hint.pcii.0.irq="7"
+.Cd hint.pcii.0.drq="1"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for driving an IEEE-488 bus, also called
+IEC-625 (or just "IEC bus"), or HP-IB (Hewlett Packard Instrument
+Bus), or GPIB (General Purpose Instrument Bus).
+The driver supports National Instruments PCIIA cards (sometimes
+also refered to as PC2A) and compatibles.
+These cards use a NEC \(mcPD7210 controller IC as the main
+interface between the host computer and the instrument bus.
+.Ss IO memory space layout
+The PCIIA cards use a very specific IO memory space allocation layout.
+The address bits A0 through A9 (which have traditionally been the only
+address bits evaluated on IBM PC XT extension cards) are hardwired to
+address 0x2e1.
+Bits A10 through A12 are used by the \(mcPD7210 register select lines.
+This makes the individual 7210 registers being 0x400 bytes apart in the
+ISA bus address space.
+Address bits A13 and A14 are compared to a DIP switch setting on the
+card, allowing for up to 4 different cards being installed (at base
+addresses 0x2e1, 0x22e1, 0x42e1, and 0x62e1, respectively).
+A15 has been used to select an optional on-board time-of-day clock
+chip (MM58167A) on the original PCIIA rather than the \(mcPD7210
+(which is not implemented on later boards and clones).
+Finally, the IO addresses 0x2f0 ... 0x2f7 are used for a
+.Em special interrupt handling feature
+(re-enable interrupts so the IRQ can be shared), where actually only
+address 0x2f0 plus the actual IRQ level is required for each card.
+Some clones do not appear to require this special IRQ handling, and
+are thus likely to not support the shared IRQ feature.
+.Pp
+Only the base address of the card needs to be specified in the ISA
+device hints; the driver takes care to derive all other IO addresses
+needed during the probe phase.
+.Ss Supported cards
+The following cards are known to be supported:
