.Sh NAME
.Nm acpi ,
.Nm acpiac ,
.Nm acpibat ,
.Nm acpiec ,
.Nm acpihpet ,
.Nm acpitimer ,
.Nm acpitz
.Nd Advanced Configuration and Power Interface
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd "acpi0 at mainbus?"
.Cd "acpiac* at acpi?"
.Cd "acpibat* at acpi?"
.Cd "acpiec* at acpi?"
.Cd "acpihpet* at acpi?"
.Cd "acpitimer* at acpi?"
.Cd "acpitz* at acpi?"
.Pp
.Cd "option ACPIVERBOSE"
.Cd "option ACPI_ENABLE"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
driver provides basic support for ACPI including loading ACPI tables from
the firmware, parsing and interpreting AML code, event handling,
suspending and powering off, and attaching device drivers.
.Pp
The
.Nm acpiec
driver provides access to ACPI Embedded Controllers for other ACPI devices.
AC power source status is updated every 10 seconds.
.Pp
The
.Nm acpibat
driver supports the ACPI Control Method Battery interface between the
battery and the host.
Information about the battery, such as capacity, recharge rate, voltage,
and serial number, is available through this driver.
Battery status is updated every 10 seconds.
.Pp
The
.Nm acpiec
driver supports ACPI Embedded Controllers.
It provides embedded controller access for other ACPI devices.
On many systems
which have an
.Nm acpiec
device, other ACPI devices such as
.Nm acpiac ,
.Nm acpibat ,
and
.Nm acpitz
implicitly depend on the
.Nm acpiec
device.
.Pp
The
.Nm acpihpet
driver provides support for the high precision event timer to be used
as a timecounter for the
.Xr tc_init 9
framework.
.Pp
The
.Nm acpitimer
driver allows access to a power management timer through the ACPI.
The timer is used as a timecounter for the
.Xr tc_init 9
framework.
.Pp
The
.Nm acpitz
driver supports ACPI Thermal Zones.
Temperature information is available through this driver as a sensor
which is updated every 10 seconds.
.\" If the temperature exceeds the
.\" .Sq critical
.\" temperature threshold, the system will be shut down.
.Pp
If the configuration option
.Dq Dv ACPIVERBOSE
is set, information about all detected ACPI devices will be displayed
on boot.
.Pp
If the configuration option
.Dq Dv ACPI_ENABLE
is set, the
.Nm
driver will take control of ACPI from the firmware (BIOS).
WARNING: this may cause an overheating on some machines since
.Nm
doesn't provide any thermal or cooling control.
.Pp
Some devices, such as
.Nm acpiac ,
provide hardware information via sensors
that can be monitored using
.Xr sysctl 8
or
.Xr sensorsd 8 .

The
.Nm acpi ,
.Nm acpiac ,
.Nm acpibat ,
.Nm acpiec ,
.Nm acpihpet ,
.Nm acpitimer ,
and
.Nm acpitz
drivers first appeared in
.Ox 3.8 .
