Justin T. Gibbs 3cddb2a3e2 John Aycock's BSD copyrighted sequencer assembler and sequencer code. This
is identical to the older version, just the copyright has changed.  Many
thanks go to Dean Gehnert of the Linux camp who went the extra mile to make
this happen.

Other changes:

Update assembler man page to include the -v and -D options

Merge in Dean's latest changes to the assembler

Have the sequencer do a MSG_REJECT when the negotiated syncronous rate
is lower than the adapter supports.  This forces asyncronous mode which
is faster at these rates anyway.

This code will be moved shortly to the non-gpld portion of the tree.

.Sh NAME
.Nm aic7xxx_asm
.Nd Assembler for the Adaptec aic7xxx family of asics
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Nm aic7xxx_asm
.Op Fl d
.Op Fl D Ar variable=value
.Op Fl v
.Op Fl o Ar file
.Ar source-file
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The Adaptec aic7xxx family of asics are single chip SCSI controllers with a
RISC like command processor. This assembler parses the language outlined
in the Adaptec technical document
.%T "AIC-7770 (EISA/ISA Bus Master Single-Chip SCSI Host Adaptor) Data Book"
and produces ascii output intended for a C byte array.
.Pp
The aic7xxx assembler is required to compile kernels with aic7xxx SCSI
adaptor support (AHA-274x, AHA-284x, AHA-294x controllers) and is compiled,
installed, and used automatically in the kernel compile directory when
necessary.
.Pp
The options are as follows:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Fl D Ar variable=value
Define
.Ar variable
to be
.Ar value
in the global context
.It Fl d
Turn on debugging
.It Fl v
Print version information
.It Fl o Ar file
Redirect assembler output to
.Ar file
.Pp
.Sh AUTHOR
This aic7770 assembler was written by
