+.Sh NAME
+.Nm adw
+.Nd Advansys PCI 16bit SCSI Host adapter driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this driver into the kernel,
+place the following lines in your
+kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "device pci"
+.Cd "device scbus"
+.Cd "device adw"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+This driver provides access to the 16bit
+.Tn SCSI
+bus connected to the Advanced Systems Products, Inc.
+.Tn ASC3550 Ultra ,
+and
+.Tn ASC38C0800 Ultra2 ,
+SCSI Host Adapter chips.
+Both chips support, synchronous transfers
+(20MHz and 40MHz max respectively),
+16bit transfers, tagged queueing,
+and up to 253 concurrent SCSI transactions.
+.Pp
+Per target configuration performed in the
+.Tn AdvanceWare
+menu, which is accessible at boot,
+is honored by this driver.
+This includes synchronous/asynchronous transfers,
+maximum synchronous negotiation rate, wide transfers, disconnection,
+tagged queueing, and the host adapter's SCSI ID.
+The global setting for the maximum number of tagged transactions allowed
+per target is not honored as the CAM SCSI system will automatically determine
+the maximum number of tags a device can receive as well as guarantee fair
+resource allocation among devices.
+.Sh HARDWARE
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports SCSI controllers including:
