28.Os
29.Sh NAME
30.Nm wd
31.Nd WD100x compatible hard disk driver
32.Sh SYNOPSIS
33.Cd "wd* at wdc? channel ? drive ? flags 0x0000"
34.Cd "wd* at pciide? channel ? drive ? flags 0x0000"
35.Sh DESCRIPTION
36The
37.Nm wd
38driver supports hard disk which emulate the Western
39Digital WD100x.  This includes standard MFM, RLL, ESDI, IDE and EIDE
40drives.
41.Pp
42The flags are used only with controllers that support DMA operations and
43mode settings (like some pciide controllers).
44The lowest order nibble (rightmost digit) of the flags define the PIO mode
45to use, the next set of four bits the DMA mode and the third nibble the
46UltraDMA mode.
47For each set of four bits, the 3 lower bits define the mode to use
48and the last bit must be set to 1 for this setting to be used.
49For DMA and UDMA, 0xf (1111) means 'disable'.
50For example, a flags value of 0x0fac (1111 1010 1100)
51means 'use PIO mode 4, DMA mode 2, disable UltraDMA'.
520x0000 means "use whatever the drive claims to support.
