ACPI_WMI(4)	       BSD/i386 Kernel Interfaces Manual	   ACPI_WMI(4)

NAME
     acpi_wmi — ACPI to WMI mapping driver

SYNOPSIS
     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your
     kernel configuration file:

	   device acpi_wmi

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
     following line in loader.conf(5):

	   acpi_wmi_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
     The acpi_wmi driver provides an interface for vendor specific WMI imple‐
     mentations (e.g. HP and Acer laptops).  It creates /dev/wmistat, which
     can be read to get information about GUIDs found in the system.

     /dev/wmistat  WMI status device.
