SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
The stuirda driver provides support for SigmaTels USB-IrDA bridges that nearly follow the bridge specification:
SigmaTel ST4116
SigmaTel ST4210
SigmaTel ST4220
Access to the IrDA device is through the irframe(4) driver. Before accessing it, a firmware patch must be downloaded. At the time of writ-
ing this, it can be found at: http://www.sigmatel.com/documents/stir4210_4220_4116_patch_files.tar.gz
Unpack the archive with
tar -C /libdata/firmware/stuirda/ -xzf stir4210_4220_4116_patch_files.tar.gz

irframe(4), usb(4)
HISTORY
The stuirda driver appeared in NetBSD 5.0.
BUGS
stuirda needs the firmware for configuration, so it can't be loaded at kernel startup time. As a workaround, you can plug in the USB-IrDA-
bridge after booting.
