I forwarded this email to tech-kern, because I don't get any response until know
and want to see somthing happening before the patch starting to rot.

.Os
.Sh NAME
.Nm piixpcib
.Nd Intel PIIX4 PCI-ISA bridge with SpeedStep
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd "piixpcib* at pci? dev ? function ?"
.Cd "isa* at piipcib?"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
driver provides support for the Intel PIIX and compatible PCI-ISA Bridge
with Intel's first generation SpeedStep.
.Pp
Frequncy scaling is supported on Pentium III with two voltage modes,
used by SpeedStep as power state low and high. 
The driver will switch into low power state by reduceing voltage 
and frequency of the CPU. The factor depends on the processor itself, but
will always reduce power consumtion about 1/2.
.Pp
The user can manually control CPU frequncy with the
.Xr sysctl 8
program accessible through:
.Bl -tag -width usscanner -offset indent
.It machdep.speedstep = [0/1]
.El
.Sh SEE ALSO
.Xr cpu 4 ,
.Xr isa 4 ,
.Xr pci 4 ,
.Xr apmd 8 ,
.Xr sysctl 8
.Sh HISTORY
The
.Nm
driver first appeared in
.Fx 5.5 and then in
.Nx 4.0 .
.Sh AUTHORS
.An -nosplit
The current
.Nm
driver was written by
.An Bruno Ducrot.
It was ported to
.Nx
by
.An Jared D. McNeill Aq jmcneill@netbsd.org .
