+.Cd "cpu AIM"
+.Cd "options OFWCONS_POLL_HZ=N"
+.Pp
+.Cd "options KDB"
+.Cd "options DDB"
+.Cd "options ALT_BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides a simple text console,
+using the Open Firmware services for input and output.
+It will use the Open Firmware console devices set via the
+.Va input-device
+and
+.Va output-device
+variables.
+.Pp
+This driver is deprecated and only provided as a fallback console mechanism
+if the real console hardware can not be driven by
+.Fx .
+.Pp
+In case the
+.Nm
+console appears to work too slowly, its responsiveness probably can be improved
+by including
+.Cd "options OFWCONS_POLL_HZ=N" .
+When omitted,
+.Dv OFWCONS_POLL_HZ
+defaults to 4.
+For example, on
+.Tn Sun Ultra 2
+a value of 20 or higher works best.
+Too high values, on the other hand, can cause
+.Nm
+to unnecessarily consume CPU.

+driver was written by

+.Sh CAVEATS
+Since the Open Firmware will handle BREAK
+(or Stop-A)
+sequences before
+.Nm ,
+the preferred way to enter
+.Xr ddb 4
+when using
+.Nm
+is to include
+.Cd "options ALT_BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER"

+(RETURN TILDE CTRL-b).

+.Sh NAME
+.Nm openfirm
+.Nd "Open Firmware interface"
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In sys/types.h
+.In sys/ioctl.h
+.In dev/ofw/openfirmio.h
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Pa /dev/openfirm
+device is an interface to the
+.Tn Open Firmware
+device tree.
+This interface is highly stylized.
+It uses
+.Xr ioctl 2
+calls for all operations.
+These calls refer to the nodes in the
+.Tn Open Firmware
+device tree.
+The nodes are represented by package handles,
+which are simply integer values describing data areas.
+Occasionally a package handle of 0 may be used or returned instead,
+as described below.
+.Pp
+The calls that only take and/or return the package handle of a node
+use a pointer to a
+.Vt phandle_t
+for this purpose.
+The others use a pointer to a
+.Vt "struct ofiocdesc"
+descriptor,
+which has the following definition:
+.Bd -literal
+struct ofiocdesc {
+ phandle_t of_nodeid;
+ int of_namelen;
+ const char *of_name;
+ int of_buflen;
+ char *of_buf;
+};
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The
+.Va of_nodeid
+member is the package handle of the node that is passed in or returned.
+Strings are passed in via the
+.Va of_name
+member of
+.Va of_namelen
+length.
+The maximum accepted length of
+.Va of_name
+is
+.Dv OFIOCMAXNAME .
+The
+.Va of_buf
+member is used to return strings except for the
+.Dv OFIOCSET
+call where it is also used to pass in a string.
+In the latter case the maximum accepted length of
+.Va of_buf
+is
+.Dv OFIOCMAXVALUE .
+Generally,
+.Va of_buf
+works in a value-result fashion.
+At entry to the
+.Xr ioctl 2
+call,
+.Va of_buflen
+is expected to reflect the buffer size.
+On return,
+.Va of_buflen
+is updated to reflect the buffer contents.
+.Pp
+The following
+.Xr ioctl 2
+calls are supported:
+.Bl -tag -width ".Dv OFIOCGETOPTNODE"
+.It Dv OFIOCGETOPTNODE
+Uses a
+.Vt phandle_t .
+Takes nothing and returns the package handle of the
+.Pa /options
+node.
+.It Dv OFIOCGETNEXT
+Uses a
+.Vt phandle_t .
+Takes the package handle of a node and returns the package handle of the next
+node in the
+.Tn Open Firmware
+device tree.
+The node following the last node has a package handle of 0.
+The node following the node with the package handle of 0 is the first node.
+.It Dv OFIOCGETCHILD
+Uses a
+.Vt phandle_t .
+Takes the package handle of a node and returns the package handle of the first
+child of that node.
+This child may have siblings.
+These can be determined by using
+.Dv OFIOCGETNEXT .
+If the node does not have a child,
+a package handle of 0 is returned.
+.It Dv OFIOCGET
+Uses a
+.Vt "struct ofiocdesc" .
+Takes the package handle of a node and the name of a property.
+Returns the property value and its length.
+If no such property is associated with that node,
+the length of the value is set to \-1.
+If the named property exists but has no value,
+the length of the value is set to 0.
+.It Dv OFIOCGETPROPLEN
+Uses a
+.Vt "struct ofiocdesc" .
+Takes the package handle of a node and the name of a property.
+Returns the length of the property value.
+This call is the same as
+.Dv OFIOCGET
+except that only the length of the property value is returned.
+It can be used to determine whether a node has a particular property or whether
+a property has a value without the need to provide memory for storing the value.
+.It Dv OFIOCSET
+Uses a
+.Vt "struct ofiocdesc" .
+Takes the package handle of a node,
+the name of a property and a property value.
+Returns the property value and the length that actually have been written.
+The
+.Tn Open Firmware
+may choose to truncate the value if it is too long or write a valid value
+instead if the given value is invalid for the particular property.
+Therefore the returned value should be checked.
+The
+.Tn Open Firmware
+may also completely refuse to write the given value to the property.
+In this case
+.Er EINVAL
+is returned.
+.It Dv OFIOCNEXTPROP
+Uses a
+.Vt "struct ofiocdesc" .
+Takes the package handle of a node and the name of a property.
+Returns the name and the length of the next property of the node.
+If the property referenced by the given name is the last property of the node,
+.Er ENOENT
+is returned.
+.It Dv OFIOCFINDDEVICE
+Uses a
+.Vt "struct ofiocdesc" .
+Takes the name or alias name of a device node.
+Returns package handle of the node.
+If no matching node is found,
+.Er ENOENT
+is returned.

+version to include it was
+.Fx 5.0 .
+.Sh AUTHORS
+.An -nosplit
+The
+.Nm
+interface was ported to
+.Fx
+by
+.An Thomas Moestl Aq Mt tmm@FreeBSD.org .
+This manual page was written by
+.An Marius Strobl Aq Mt marius@FreeBSD.org
+based on the
+.Ox
+manual page for
+.Xr openprom 4 .
+.Sh CAVEATS
+Due to limitations within
+.Tn Open Firmware
+itself,
+these functions run at elevated priority and may adversely affect system
+performance.
+.Pp
+For at least the
+.Pa /options
+node the property value passed in to the
+.Dv OFIOCSET
+call has to be null-terminated and the value length passed in has to include
+the terminating
+.Ql \e0 .
+However, as with the
+.Dv OFIOCGET
+call,
+the returned value length does not include the terminating
+.Ql \e0 .
