29.Sh NAME
30.Nm smartpqi
31.Nd Microsemi smartpqi SCSI driver for PQI controllers
32.Sh SYNOPSIS
33To compile this driver into the kernel,
34place the following lines in your
35kernel configuration file:
36.Bd -ragged -offset indent
37.Cd device pci
38.Cd device scbus
39.Cd device smartpqi
40.Ed
41.Pp
42Alternatively, to load the driver as a
43module at boot time, place the following line in
44.Xr loader.conf 5 :
45.Bd -literal -offset indent
46smartpqi_load="YES"
47.Ed
48.Sh DESCRIPTION
49The
50.Nm
51SCSI driver provides support for the new generation of PQI controllers from
52Microsemi.
53The
54.Nm
55driver is the first SCSI driver to implement the PQI queuing model.
56.Pp
57The
58.Nm
59driver will replace the aacraid driver for Adaptec Series 9 controllers.
60.Pp
61The
62.Pa /dev/smartpqi?
63device nodes provide access to the management interface of the controller.
64One node exists per installed card.
