+.Sh NAME
+.Nm cxgb
+.Nd "Chelsio T3 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter driver"
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this driver into the kernel,
+place the following lines in your
+kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "device firmware"
+.Cd "device cxgb"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+To load the driver as a
+module at boot time, place the following line in
+.Xr loader.conf 5 :
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+if_cxgb_load="YES"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports Transmit/Receive checksum offload,
+Jumbo Frames, TCP segmentation offload (TSO), Large Receive Offload (LRO),
+VLAN hardware insertion / extraction, and VLAN checksum offload.
+For further hardware information, see
+.Pa http://www.chelsio.com/ .
+.Pp
+For questions related to hardware requirements,
+refer to the documentation supplied with your Chelsio T3 adapter.
+All hardware requirements listed apply to use with
+.Fx .
+.Pp
+Support for Jumbo Frames is provided via the interface MTU setting.
+Selecting an MTU larger than 1500 bytes with the
+.Xr ifconfig 8
+utility configures the adapter to receive and transmit Jumbo Frames.
+The maximum MTU size for Jumbo Frames is 9000.
+.Pp
+For more information on configuring this device, see
+.Xr ifconfig 8 .
+.Sh HARDWARE
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports 10 Gigabit and 1 Gigabit Ethernet adapters based on the T3 and T3B chipset:

+.Sh LOADER TUNABLES
+Tunables can be set at the
+.Xr loader 8
+prompt before booting the kernel or stored in
+.Xr loader.conf 5 .
+.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
+.Bl -diag
+.It "cxgb%d: Unable to allocate bus resource: memory"
+A fatal initialization error has occurred.
+.It "cxgb%d: Unable to allocate bus resource: interrupt"
+A fatal initialization error has occurred.
+.It "cxgb%d: Could not find firmware image %s"
+The appropriate firmware kld module was not installed.
