+.Sh NAME
+.Nm armv8crypto
+.Nd "driver for the AES accelerator on ARM CPUs"
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this driver into the kernel,
+place the following lines in your
+kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "device crypto"
+.Cd "device armv8crypto"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Alternatively, to load the driver as a
+module at boot time, place the following line in
+.Xr loader.conf 5 :
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+armv8crypto_load="YES"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+Starting with the ARMv8 architecture ARM Limited has added optional
+cryptography instructions to accelerate AES, SHA-1, SHA-2, and
+finite field arithmetic.
+.Pp
+The processor capability is reported as AES in the Instruction Set
+Attributes 0 line at boot.
+The
+.Nm
+driver does not attach on systems that lack the required CPU capability.
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver registers itself to accelerate AES operations for
+.Xr crypto 4 .
