+.Cd "hpc0 at gio0 addr 0x1fb80000"
+.Cd "hpc1 at gio0 addr 0x1fb00000"

+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Nm
+interfaces the peripherals connected to it to the
+.Xr gio 4
+bus.
+.Nm
+is found on the Indigo, Indy, Challenge S, Challenge M,
+and Indigo2 machines.
+.Pp
+There are three different numerical revisions of the
+.Nm
+controller.
+Revisions 1 and 1.5 exist on Indigo machines,
+as well as GIO32bis expansion cards such as the E++ SEEQ-based
+Ethernet adapter.
+Revision 1.5 supports bi-endian operation.
+Revision 3 exists on Indy, Challenge S, Indigo2, and Challenge M systems.
+It is possible to have an on-board HPC3 as well as HPC1.5-based
+GIO32bis adapters in the Indy and Challenge S systems.
+Additionally, the Challenge S may have a secondary HPC3 if the IOPLUS
+(a.k.a. ''mezzanine'') board is installed.

+.Sh BUGS
+.Nm
+Revisions 1 and 1.5 support DMA buffer pointers of only 28 bits
+and may therefore only address 256 megabytes of memory.
+The R4k Indigo and Indy are the only systems that support sufficient
+memory to illustrate this drawback.
+A software workaround is not currently implemented.
+Revision 3, with 32 bit pointers, does not have this limitation.
