Remove the awi(4) manual page from the sys/ hierarchy after a repo-
copy to share/man/man4 . The file is still not connected to the build from that directory either.

-.Nd
-AMD PCnetMobile IEEE 802.11 PCMCIA wireless network driver
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Cd "awi* at pcmcia? function ?"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-.Pp
-The
-.Nm
-driver supports various IEEE 802.11 wireless cards
-which run AMD PCnetMobile firmware based on AMD 79c930 controller.
-It provides access to 32kb of memory shared between the controller
-and the host.
-All host/device interaction is via this shared memory, which can be
-accessed either via PCMCIA memory space or I/O space.
-The
-.Nm
-driver encapsulates all IP and ARP traffic as 802.11 frames.
-.Pp
-The driver works both in infrastructure mode and in adhoc (independent
-BSS) mode.
-.Pp
-In infrastructure mode, it communicates with an Access Point
-which serves as a link-layer bridge between an Ethernet and
-the wireless network. An access point also provides roaming capability
-which allows wireless node to move between access points.
-.Pp
-In adhoc mode, it communicates peer to peer.
-Though it is more efficient to communicate between wireless nodes,
-the coverage is limited spatially due to lack of roaming capability.
-.Pp
-In addition to these two mode in IEEE 802.11 specification, the
-.Nm
-driver also supports a variant of adhoc mode out of spec, which makes
-possible to communicate with adhoc mode of
-.Xr wi 8
-driver. The NWID doesn't affect in this mode.
-.Pp
-For more information on configuring this device, see
-.Xr ifconfig 8
-and
-.Xr ifmedia 4 .
-.Sh HARDWARE
-Cards supported by the
-.Nm
-driver include:
-.Pp
-.Bl -tag -width BayStack_650x -offset indent
-.It BayStack 650
-1Mbps Frequency Hopping PCCARD adapter
-.It BayStack 660
-2Mbps Direct Sequence PCCARD adapter
-.It Icom SL-200
-2Mbps Direct Sequence PCCARD adapter
-.It Melco WLI-PCM
-2Mbps Direct Sequence PCCARD adapter
-.It NEL SSMagic
-2Mbps Direct Sequence PCCARD adapter
-.It Netwave AirSurfer Plus
-1Mbps Frequency Hopping PCCARD adapter
-.It Netwave AirSurfer Pro
-2Mbps Direct Sequence PCCARD adapter
-.El
-.Pp
-The original Xircom Netwave AirSurfer is supported by the
-.Xr cnw 4
-driver.
-.Sh MEDIA SELECTION
-The DS cards support
-.Em DS1
-and
-.Em DS2
-media types, while the FH cards support
-.Em FH1
-media type. For each media type,
-.Em adhoc
-mediaopt can be used to indicate the driver to operate in adhoc mode.
-Also,
-.Em adhoc,flag0
-mediaopt can be used for
-.Xr wi 4
-compatible adhoc mode.
-.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
-.Bl -diag
-.It "awi0: unable to allocate memory space; using i/o only"
-Indicates that the driver was not able to allocate 32kb of PCMCIA bus
-address space into which to map the device; the driver will use the
-(slightly slower) i/o-space only access methods to read and write to
-the shared memory. Since by default, NetBSD, only allocates 16kb of
-address space per PCMCIA controller, this message is in some sense to
-be expected and should not be a cause for alarm.
-See
-.Xr pcmcia 4
-for information on how to increase the memory available to the PCMCIA
-controller.
-.It "awi0: failed to complete selftest (%s)"
-The device failed to complete its self test.
-.It "awi0: synced with %s ssid %s at chanset %d"
-.It "awi0: associated with %s ssid %s channel %d signal %d"
-The device has successfully synchronized with the identified Access
-Point and is ready to relay traffic.
-.It "awi0: authentication failed (reason %d)"
-.It "awi0: association failed (reason %d)"
-The access point refuses the association request from the device.
-.It "awi0: no recent beacons from %s; rescanning"
-The device has not heard a beacon from its currently associated Access
-Point recently, and is looking for a new access point.
-.It "awi0: transmit timeout"
-The device failed to generate an interrupt to acknowledge a
-transmitted packet.
-.It "awi0: failed to lock interrupt"
-The system was unable to obtain the lock to access shared memory.
-.It "awi0: command %d failed %x"
-The device failed to complete the request from the system.
-.El

-The
-.Nm
-device driver first appeared in
-.Nx 1.5 .
-.Sh AUTHOR
-The initial version of the
-.Nm
-driver was written by
