32 .Nd "Firmware Module for Qlogic based SCSI and FibreChannel SCSI Host Adapters"
36 This trivial driver provides access to firmware sets for the Qlogic
37 based SCSI and FibreChannel SCSI Host Adapters. It may either be
38 statically linked into the kernel, or loaded as a module. In either
41 driver will notice that firmware is available to be downloaded onto
42 Qlogic cards (to replace the usually out of date firmware on the cards).
43 This will kick the f/w into getting unstuck.
47 This driver was written by Matthew Jacob.
