NAME
ispfw - Firmware for Qlogic FibreChannel SCSI Host Adapters
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your
kernel configuration file:
device ispfw
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
following line in loader.conf(5):
ispfw_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
This trivial driver provides access to firmware sets for the Qlogic
FibreChannel SCSI Host Adapters. It may either be statically linked into
the kernel, or loaded as a module. In either case, the isp(4) driver
will notice that firmware is available to be downloaded onto Qlogic cards
(to replace the usually out of date firmware on the cards). This will
kick the f/w into getting unstuck.

AUTHORS
This driver was written by Matthew Jacob. Later improvement was done by
Alexander Motin <mav@FreeBSD.org>.
BUGS
Only firmware for the 24xx and 25xx based cards is included in ispfw.
