30.Sh NAME
31.Nm chromebook_platform
32.Nd support driver for hardware on various Chromebook models
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines into
35the kernel configuration file:
36.Bd -ragged -offset indent
37.Cd "device chromebook_platform"
38.Ed
39.Pp
40Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in
41.Xr loader.conf 5 :
42.Bd -literal -offset indent
43chromebook_platform_load="YES"
44.Ed
45.Sh DESCRIPTION
46The
47.Nm
48driver provides automatic configuration for devices that cannot be enumerated
49or safely probed.
50In particular, I2C peripherals are different from model to model.
51.Nm
52has a model-specific information about the I2C peripherals, their drivers,
53their bus attachments and slave addresses.
54.Pp
55Note that
56.Nm
57does not load driver modules for the peripherals.
58Those have to be compiled into the kernel or loaded separately.
