EISA(4) OpenBSD Programmer's Manual EISA(4)NAME
eisa - introduction to EISA bus support
SYNOPSIS
Machine-dependent; depends on the bus topology and EISA bus interface of
your system. Typical EISA buses are either connected directly to the
main system bus, or via an PCI to EISA bridge. See the intro(4)
documentation for your system for details.
DESCRIPTION
OpenBSD includes a machine-independent EISA bus subsystem and several
machine-independent EISA device drivers.
OpenBSD provides support for the following devices. Note that not all
architectures support all devices.
Disk and tape controllers
cac(4) Compaq Smart ARRAY 2/3/4 SCSI RAID controller
dpt(4) DPT EATA SCSI RAID controller
SCSI interfaces
ahb(4) Adaptec 1742 SCSI interface
ahc(4) Adaptec VL/EISA/PCI SCSI interface
bha(4) Buslogic SCSI interface
uha(4) Ultrastor SCSI interface
Network interfaces
ep(4) 3Com EtherLink III and Fast EtherLink III 10/100
Ethernet device
fea(4) Digital DEFEA FDDI interfaces
Note that most or all EISA devices also have PCI or ISA equivalents.
These are listed in pci(4), isa(4), or isapnp(4), respectively. The
manual pages for each individual driver also lists the supported bus
variants.
SEE ALSOintro(4)HISTORY
The machine-independent EISA subsystem appeared in OpenBSD 1.2.
