.Sh NAME
.Nm atkbdc
.Nd
the AT keyboard controller interface
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd "options" \&"KBD_RESETDELAY=N\&"
.Cd "options" \&"KBD_MAXWAIT=N\&"
.Cd "options" \&"KBDIO_DEBUG=N\&"
.Cd "controller atkbdc0 at isa? port IO_KBD tty"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The keyboard controller
.Nm
provides I/O services for the AT keyboard and PS/2 mouse style
pointing devices.
This controller is required for the keyboard driver
.Nm atkbd
and the PS/2 pointing device driver
.Nm psm
to operate.
.Pp
There can be only one
.Nm
device in the system.
.Sh DRIVER CONFIGURATION
.Ss Kernel Configuration Options
There are following kernel configuration options to control the
.Nm
driver.
They may be set in the kernel configuration file
.Pq see Xr config 8 .
.Bl -tag -width MOUSE
.It Em KBD_RESETDELAY=X, KBD_MAXWAIT=Y
The keyboard driver
.Nm atkbd
and the pointing device driver
.Nm psm
may ask the
.Nm
driver to reset devices during the boot process.
It sometimes takes a long while before these devices will respond to
the reset command.
These options control how long the
.Nm
driver should
wait before it eventually gives up waiting. The driver will wait
.Fa X
*
.Fa Y
msecs at most. If the drivers seem unable to detect
devices, you may want to increase these values. The default values are
200 msec for
.Fa X
and 5
for
.Fa Y .
.It Em KBDIO_DEBUG=N
Sets the debug level to
.Fa N .
The default debug level is zero.
