+.Sh NAME
+.Nm nell
+.Nd sbus pcmcia bridge
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "nell* at sbus? slot ? offset ? flags 0"
+.Cd "pcmcia* at nell? controller ? socket ?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+is a pcmcia bridge for the sbus.
+It is also known as STP4020, the name
+of the chipset used to implement it, and has SUN part number 501-2367.
+.Pp
+The firmware assigns two interrupt levels to the nell, but the driver only
+needs a single interrupt.
+Depending on distribution of interrupt levels on your machine you might
+prefer the driver to use either the first (use flags value 0) or the second
+(use flags value 1).
+.Sh KERNEL THREAD
+Each
+.Nm
+instance creates a kernel thread, named like the instance.
+This thread is used to watch for card insertions and removals, and
+handling the attachment and initialization of the card's driver.
