NAME
     ispfw — Firmware for Qlogic based SPI and 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 based SPI and 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     usually out of date firmware on the cards).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.
