+.Sh NAME
+.Nm bcma
+.Nd Broadcom AMBA Backplane driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this driver into the kernel, add the following lines to the
+kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "device bhnd"
+.Cd "device bcma"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+To load the driver as a module at boot, add this line to
+.Xr loader.conf 5 :
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+bcma_load="YES"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides
+.Xr bhnd 4
+support for devices using the ARM AMBA-based backplane architecture found
+in later Broadcom Home Networking Division's network chipsets and embedded
+systems.
+.Pp
+A common interconnect connects all of the backplane's functional
+blocks.
+These functional blocks, known as cores, use the ARM AMBA AXI or
+APB interface to communicate with devices attached to the interconnect.
+.Pp
+The IP cores used in
+.Xr siba 4
+devices were adapted by Broadcom for compatibility with the new
+interconnect.
+.Sh SEE ALSO

+The
+.Nm
+device driver first appeared in
