+.Sh NAME

+.Nd Cyclades Cyclom-{4, 8, 16}Y asynchronous comms board device driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "cy0 at isa? iomem 0xd4000 irq 12"
+.Cd "cy* at pci?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+This driver provides an interface to Cyclades Cyclom-4Y, Cyclom-8Y and
+Cyclom-16Y asynchronous multiport serial boards.
+These boards are based around Cirrus Logic CD1400 communication controllers.
+.Pp
+The device minor numbers for this driver are encoded as follows:
+.Bd -literal
+ d c c u u u u u - bits in the minor device number
+
+ bits meaning
+ ---- -------
+ uuuuu physical serial line (i.e., unit) to use
+ 0-7 on a cyclom-8Y, 0-15 on a cyclom-16Y
+
+ cc card number
+
+ d dial-out flag
+.Ed
+.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
+.Bl -diag
+.It "cy0: port 0 ibuf overrun"
+Incoming characters have been discarded due to a buffer overflow.
+.It "cy0: port 0 fifo overrun"
+Incoming characters have been discarded due to a CD1400 channel overrun.
+This is caused by interrupts not being serviced sufficiently quickly to prevent
+the 12 byte receive FIFO on a serial channel from overflowing.
+Reducing the value of the
+.Dv RX_FIFO_THRESHOLD
+#define from 6 to something smaller may help slow machines avoid this problem.

+.Sh HISTORY
+Some ideas for the architecture of this driver's two-layer processing model
+were derived from the fas 2.10 driver by
+.An Uwe Doering Aq Mt gemini@geminix.in-berlin.de
+and the high-performance com driver by
+.An Bruce Evans Aq Mt bde@kralizec.zeta.org.au .
+.Pp
+This work was made possible through the donation of a Cyclom-8Y board by the
+manufacturer, Cyclades Corporation.
+However, neither Cyclades nor the author make any warranties regarding
+this software, nor guarantees of support.
+.Sh AUTHORS
+The driver was written by
+.An Andrew Herbert Aq Mt andrew@werple.apana.org.au .
+.Sh BUGS
+There is currently no BREAK handling - breaks are ignored.
+There is no support for bad-character reporting, except via PARMRK.
+The Cyclom-[48]Y boards do not listen to the RTS signal for receiver flow
+control.
+FIFO overruns are only logged when the termios IGNPAR setting is enabled.
