>Description:
The MCS9835 is a PCI based dual-channel UART with enhanced bi-directional
parallel controller.

The datasheet is available here:
<http://www.moschip.com/data/products/NM9835/Data%20Sheet_9835.pdf>

The UART is currently unsupported by sio(4).
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
To get the PCI UART supported by sio(4) apply the following patch to RELENG_6_2. This enables the first of the two serial ports. The parallel port remains unsupported.
