+.Sh NAME
+.Nm glxiic
+.Nd Geode LX CS5536 I2C controller 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 pci"
+.Cd "device isa"
+.Cd "device glxiic"
+.Cd "device iicbus"
+.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
+glxiic_load="YES"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports the System Management Bus controller of the Geode LX
+series CS5536 Companion Device. The Geode LX is a member of the AMD
+Geode family of integrated x86 system chips.
+.Pp
+Although AMD refers to this device as a System Management Bus (SMBus)
+controller, it is really an I2C controller (it lacks SMBus ALERT# and
+Alert Response support).
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports both I2C master and slave mode.
+.Sh SYSCTL VARIABLE
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports the following variable as both
+.Xr sysctl 8
+and
+.Xr loader 8
+tunable:
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Va dev.glxiic.0.timeout
+This variable controls the I2C bus timeout in milliseconds. The
+default timeout is 35 milliseconds. A value of zero disables the
+timeout.
+.El
+.Sh CAVEAT
+The
+.Nm
+driver uses the interrupt line number configured by the board firmware
+by default. If no interrupt line number has been configured by the
+board firmware (or to override the interrupt line number configured by
+board firmware), place the following line in
+.Xr device.hints 5 :
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+hint.glxiic.0.irq="10"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The interrupt line number must be between 1 and 15.
