37.Sh NAME
38.Nm kg
39.Nd
40.Tn KL-11 Ns / Tn DL-11W
41line clock
42.Sh SYNOPSIS
43.Cd "device kg0 at uba0 csr 0176500 vector kglock"
44.Sh DESCRIPTION
45A
46.Tn KL-11
47or
48.Tn DL-11W
49can be used as an alternate real
50time clock
51source.  When configured, certain system
52statistics and, optionally, system profiling work
53will be collected each time the clock interrupts.  For
54optimum accuracy in profiling, the
55.Tn DL-11W
56should be
57configured to interrupt at the highest possible priority
58level.  The
59.Nm kg
60device driver automatically calibrates itself to the
61line clock frequency.
