.Sh NAME
.Nm acpi_wmi
.Nd "ACPI to WMI mapping driver"
.Sh SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel,
place the following line in your
kernel configuration file:
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
.Cd "device acpi_wmi"
.Ed
.Pp
Alternatively, to load the driver as a
module at boot time, place the following line in
.Xr loader.conf 5 :
.Bd -literal -offset indent
acpi_wmi_load="YES"
.Ed
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
driver provides an interface for vendor specific WMI implementations
(e.g. HP and Acer laptops).
It creates /dev/wmistat%d, which can be read to get
information about GUIDs found in the system.
.Sh FILES
.Bl -tag -width /dev/wmistat%d -compact
.It Pa /dev/wmistat%d
WMI status device.
.El
.Sh SYSCTLS
The following sysctl node is currently implemented:
.Bl -tag 
.It Va dev.acpi_wmi.%d.bmof
Managed Object Format (MOF) blob.
You can obtain human readable output by bmf2mof in bmfdec tool.
