|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm iwlwifi
|
|
.Nd Intel IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax wireless network driver
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
The driver will auto-load without any user interaction using
|
|
.Xr devmatch 8
|
|
if enabled in
|
|
.Xr rc.conf 5 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Only if auto-loading is explicitly disabled, place the following
|
|
lines in
|
|
.Xr rc.conf 5
|
|
to manually load the driver as a module at boot time:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
kld_list="${kld_list} if_iwlwifi"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The driver should automatically load any
|
|
.Xr iwlwififw 4
|
|
firmware needed for the particular chipset.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
It is discouraged to load the driver from
|
|
.Xr loader 8 .
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver is derived from Intel's Linux iwlwifi driver and provides support for
|
|
all chipsets supported by the
|
|
.Em mvm
|
|
part of that driver.

will be a successor to
|
|
.Xr iwm 4
|
|
and may supersede that driver in the future.
|
|
It still complements the
|
|
.Xr iwn 4
|
|
driver which supports older chipsets.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The driver uses the
|
|
.\" No LinuxKPI man pages so no .Xr here.
|
|
.Em linuxkpi_wlan
|
|
and
|
|
.Em linuxkpi
|
|

|
|
native

.Fx
|
|
driver code as well as to the native
|
|
.Xr net80211 4
|
|
wireless stack.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
While
|
|
.Nm
|
|
supports all 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax
|
|
the compatibility code currently only supports 802.11 a/b/g modes.
|
|
Support for 802.11 n/ac is to come. 802.11ax and 6Ghz support are planned.
