.Sh NAME
.Nm nandsim
.Nd NAND Flash simulator driver
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd "device nand"
.Cd "device nandsim"
.Cd "options ALQ"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
is part of the
.Fx
NAND framework
.Xr nand 4
and can be characterized with the following highlights:
.Bl -bullet
.It
plugs into the
.Xr nand 4
framework APIs as if it were a hardware controller (hanging on the nexus bus)
with real NAND chips connected to it
.It
physically part of the kernel code (either statically linked into the kernel
image or built as a module)
.It
controlled with a user space program
.Xr nandsim 8
.El
.Pp
From the user perspective, the
.Nm
allows for imitating ONFI-compliant NAND Flash devices as if they were
attached to the system via a virtual controller.
.Pp
Some
.Nm
features rely on the ability to log contents to a file, which is achieved
through the
.Xr alq 9
facility.
.Sh SEE ALSO
.Xr nand 4 ,
.Xr nandsim.conf 5 ,
.Xr nandsim 8
.Sh STANDARDS

.Pq Vt ONFI .
.Sh HISTORY
The
.Nm
support first appeared in
.Fx 10.0 .
.Sh AUTHORS
.An -nosplit
The
.Nm
kernel driver was developed by
