.Sh NAME
.Nm ispfw
.Nd "Firmware for Qlogic based SPI 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 SPI 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Qlogic cards (to replace the usually out of date firmware on the cards).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.
