+.Sh NAME
+.Nm ispfw
+.Nd "Firmware Module for Qlogic based SCSI and FibreChannel SCSI Host Adapters"
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this driver into the kernel,
+place the following line in your
+kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "device ispfw"
+.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
+ispfw_load="YES"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+This trivial driver provides access to firmware sets for the Qlogic
+based SCSI and FibreChannel SCSI Host Adapters.
+It may either be
+statically linked into the kernel, or loaded as a module.
+In either
+case, the
+.Xr isp 4
+driver will notice that firmware is available to be downloaded onto
+Qlogic cards (to replace the usually out of date firmware on the cards).
+This will kick the f/w into getting unstuck.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr isp 4
+.Sh AUTHORS
+This driver was written by Matthew Jacob.
