NAME
     ath_hal --	Atheros	Hardware Access	Layer (HAL)

     device ath_hal
     or
     device ath_ar5210

DESCRIPTION
     The hal provides hardware support for wireless network adapters based on
     the Atheros AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, AR5213, AR2413, AR2417, AR2425,
     AR5413, AR5416, AR5418, AR5424, AR9130, AR9160, AR9220, AR9280, AR9285,
     AR9287, AR9380, AR9390, AR9580, AR9590, AR9562 and	QCA9565	chips (and
     companion RF/baseband parts).  This code is part of the ath(4) driver but
     configured	separately to allow fine-grained control over the set of chips
     supported.	 Selecting ath_hal enables support for all PCI and Cardbus de-
     vices.

     Some devices come in Cardbus/MiniPCI/PCI format.  Others (for example
     AR2413, AR2427, AR5418, AR9280, AR9285, AR9287) come in PCIe, Mini-PCIe
     or	ExpressCard format.

     Historically this code has	been released in a binary-only form and	pack-
     aged as a separate	module.	 With the release of source code for the hal
     this is no	longer true and	the code is tightly integrated with the
     driver.
