32.Os
33.Sh NAME
34.Nm ncrsc
35.Nd NCR 53c710 SCSI I/O Processor
36.Sh SYNOPSIS
37.Cd "ncrsc0 at pcctwo? ipl 2"
38.Sh DESCRIPTION
39The
40.Nm
41driver provides an abstraction layer between the SCSI hardware
42fitted to
43.Tn Motorola
44MVME167 and MVME177 single board computers (NCR73C710),
45and the machine independent SCSI drivers described in
46.Xr scsibus 4 .
47.Pp
48In addition to sending the required SCSI commands to
49target devices on the SCSI bus, the
50.Nm
51driver deals with DMA, device interrupts, sync/async negotiation
52and target disconnects/reconnects.
53.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
54Too many to mention.
55.Sh SEE ALSO
56.Xr mvme68k/pcctwo 4 ,
57.Xr scsibus 4
58.Sh BUGS
59The current
60.Nm
61driver should be obsoleted and replaced with a machine independent
62version.
