+.Nm sym
+.Nd Symbios/LSI Logic PCI-SCSI host adapter driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+For any number of cards:
+.Cd device sym0
+.Pp
+To disable PCI parity checking (needed for broken bridges)
+.Cd options SYM_SETUP_PCI_PARITY=<boolean>
+.Pp
+To control driver probing against HVD buses
+.Cd options SYM_SETUP_SCSI_DIFF=<bit combination>
+.Pp
+To control chip attachment balancing between the ncr driver and this driver
+.Cd options SYM_SETUP_LP_PROBE_MAP=<bit combination>
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+This driver provides support for the Symbios/LSI Logic
+.Tn 53C810A,
+.Tn 53C825A,
+.Tn 53C860,
+.Tn 53C875,
+.Tn 53C876,
+.Tn 53C895,
+.Tn 53C895A,
+.Tn 53C896,
+.Tn 53C897,
+.Tn 53C1510D,
+and
+.Tn 53C1010
+PCI-SCSI controllers.
+.Pp
+Driver features include support for wide SCSI busses, fast10, fast20,
+fast40 and fast80-dt synchronous data transfers depending on controller
+capabilities. It also provides generic SCSI features as tagged command
+queuing and auto-request sense. This driver is configured by default
+for a maximum of 446 outstanding commands per bus, 8 LUNs per target
+and 64 tagged tasks per LUN. These numbers are not so limited by design,
+as have been considered reasonable values for current SCSI technology.
+These values can be increased by changing appropriate
+constants in driver header files (not recommended).
+.Pp
+This driver requires the PCI-SCSI chip to implement LOAD/STORE SCRIPTS
+instructions and therefore it does not provide support for 53C810 revid < 16,
+53C825 revid < 16 and all 53C815 revisions. The generic
+.Nm ncr
+driver can be used to support these early chips.
+.Pp
+By default, when both the
+.Nm ncr
+and
+.Nm
+drivers are configured, the
+.Nm
+driver takes precedence over the
+.Nm ncr
+driver for all chips that are supported by
+both drivers. As result, the
+.Nm ncr
+driver does only attach the 53C8XX
+chips that donnot support LOAD/STORE (i.e.: 53C810, 53C815 and 53C825).
+User can change the balancing of chip types between drivers by defining
+the
+.Ar SYM_SETUP_LP_PROBE_MAP
+kernel configuration option as follows:
+.Bl -column "Bit   " "53C8XXA, 53C8XX, 53C8XX, 53C8XX, 53C8XX, 53C8XX"
+.Em Bit	Devices attached by ncr instead
+1	53C810a, 53C860
+2	53C825a, 53C875, 53C876, 53C885, 53C895
+4	53C895a, 53C896, 53C897, 53C1510d
+.El
+.Ed
+.Pp
+For example, if
+.Ar SYM_SETUP_LP_PROBE_MAP
+is supplied with value 7, all the
+above chips will be attached by the
+.Nm ncr
+driver and the
+.Nm
+driver will only
+attach the 53C1010 Ultra-3 controllers.
+.Pp
+HVD/LVD capable controllers (895, 895A, 896, 897 and 1010) report
+the actual bus mode from the STEST4 chip IO registers. This feature
+allows to safely probe against bus mode and to set up the chip
+accordingly. By default the driver only supports HVD for these chips.
+For other chips that can support HVD but not LVD, the driver has to probe
+implementation dependent registers (GPIO) in order to detect HVD bus mode.
+Only HVD implementations that conform with Symbios Logic recommendation can
+be detected by the driver. When the
+.Ar SYM_SETUP_SCSI_DIFF
+kernel is provided
+as value 1, the driver will also probe against HVD for 825a, 875, 876 and
+885 chips, assuming Symbios Logic compatible implementation of HVD.
+.Pp
+When supplied as 0, the
+.Ar SYM_SETUP_PCI_PARITY
+kernel configuration option
+indicates the driver not to enable PCI parity checking. PCI parity
+checking should not be an option for PCI-SCSI controllers, but some
+systems have been reported to fail using 53C8XX chips due to spurious or
+permanent PCI parity errors detected. This option is supplied for
+convenience but it is not recommended nor supported.
+.Pp
+This driver offers other options that are not currently exported to user.
+They are defined and documented in the sym_conf.h driver file. It is not
+recommended to change these options unless absolute need. Some of these
+options are planned to be exported through SYSCTL or equivalent mechanism
+in a further driver release and therefore, no compatibility is guaranteed.
+.Pp
+At initialization, the driver tries to detect and read user settings from
+controller NVRAM. The Symbios/Logic NVRAM layout and the Tekram NVRAM
+layout are currently supported. If the reading of the NVRAM succeeds, the
+following settings are taken into account and reported to CAM:
+.Pp

+.Em Host settings	Symbios	Tekram

+Number of tags  	NA	Y
+Disconnect enable	Y	Y
+Scan at boot time	Y	N
+Scan LUN       	Y	N
+.El
+.Pp
+Devices that are configured as disabled for 'scan' in the NVRAM are not
+reported to CAM at system start-up. They can be discovered later using
+the
+.Nm camcontrol rescan
+command.

+The table below summarizes the main features and capabilities of the
+NCR/Symbios/LSI Logic 53C8XX family of PCI-SCSI controllers.
