.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The hal provides hardware support for wireless network adapters based on
|
|
the Atheros AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, AR5213, AR2413, AR2417, AR2425,
|
|
AR5413, AR5416, AR5418, AR5424, AR9130, AR9160, AR9220, AR9280, AR9285,
|
|
AR9287, AR9380, AR9390, AR9580, AR9590, AR9562 and QCA9565
|
|
chips (and companion RF/baseband parts).
|
|
This code is part of the
|
|
.Xr ath 4
|
|
driver but configured separately to allow fine-grained control
|
|
over the set of chips supported.
|
|
Selecting
|
|
.Nm
|
|
enables support for all PCI and Cardbus devices.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Some devices come in Cardbus/MiniPCI/PCI format.
|
|
Others (for example AR2413, AR2427, AR5418, AR9280, AR9285, AR9287) come in
|
|
PCIe, Mini-PCIe or ExpressCard format.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Historically this code has been released in a binary-only form
|
|
and packaged as a separate module.
|
|
With the release of source code for the hal this is no longer true
|
|
and the code is tightly integrated with the driver.
|
|
.Sh HARDWARE
