31.Dt PDCIDE 4
32.Os
33.Sh NAME
34.Nm pdcide
35.Nd Promise IDE disk controllers driver
36.Sh SYNOPSIS
37.Cd "pdcide* at pci? dev ? function ? flags 0x0000"
38.Sh DESCRIPTION
39The
40.Nm
41driver supports the Promise Ultra33, Ultra66, Ultra100, Ultra100TX2,
42Ultra100TX2v2, Ultra133, Ultra133TX2, Ultra133TX2v2, Fasttrak133 and
43Serial ATA/150 IDE controllers, and provides the
44interface with the hardware for the
45.Xr ata 4
46driver.
47.Pp
48The 0x0002 flag forces the
49.Nm
50driver to disable DMA on chipsets for which DMA would normally be
51enabled.
52This can be used as a debugging aid, or to work around
53problems where the IDE controller is wired up to the system incorrectly.

61.Xr wdc 4
62.Sh BUGS
63The timings used for the PIO and DMA modes for controllers listed above
64are for a PCI bus running at 30 or 33 MHz.
65This driver may not work properly on overclocked systems.
66.Pp
67The
68.Nm
69driver does NOT function correctly on
70.Nx Ns /sparc64 .
