+.Sh NAME
+.Nm bios
+.Nd a driver for PC Firmware, aka BIOS
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "bios0    at mainbus0 flags 0x0000"
+.Cd "apm0     at bios0 flags 0x0000"
+.Cd "pcibios0 at bios0 flags 0x0000"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Ox
+provides support for PC firmware, aka BIOS and some of its functions,
+currently: APM subsystem, BIOS32 extensions, PCI BIOS subsystem.
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver also identifies BIOS type (such as "AT/286+", which is
+almost always used in modern machines) and BIOS image date stamp,
+which is, presumably, the day the BIOS image was compiled by vendor
+and could be used as a crude BIOS version identification.
+The
+.Nm
+driver also scans the ISA memory hole at 640K-1M for optional
+ROM images and reserves the space from being used by various
+ISA devices, for example
+.Xr pcic 4 .
+.Pp
+Flags is a bit mask, each bit of which specifies which functions
+of the driver to disable.

+BIOS32 attachment.
+.Pp
+Do not probe or attach to BIOS32 extensions.
+BIOS32 is one of
+the interfaces to the PCI BIOS configuration tables.
+.It 0x0002
+PCI BIOS attachment.
+.Pp
+Do not probe or attach the
+.Xr pcibios 4
+device, which performs certain PCI configuration tasks.
+.It 0x0004
+Do not perform the scan for ROM images in the ISA memory hole
+(0xc0000 - 0xf0000 physical addresses).
+.It 0x0008
+SMBIOS attachment.
+.Pp
+Do not probe or attach to SMBIOS.
+SMBIOS provides greater detail about system hardware configuration
+and is required to attach
+.Xr ipmi 4
+on most systems.

+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+driver
+appeared in
+.Ox 2.2 .
+.Sh BUGS
+On some machines optional ROM images do not pass checksum check,
+but it's considered better to reserve space for those anyway,
+choosing lesser evil from many.
