+.Nd AT Real-Time Clock (RTC) driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+This driver is a mandatory part of i386/amd64 kernels.
+.Pp
+The following tunable is settable from the
+.Xr loader 8 :
+.Bl -ohang
+.It Va hint.atrtc. Ns Ar X Ns Va .clock
+controls event timers functionality support. Setting to 0, disables it.
+Default value is 1.
+.El
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+This driver uses RTC hardware to supply kernel with time-of-day clock
+with 1 second resolution and one event timer.
+This hardware uses base frequency of 32768Hz for advancing time-of-day clock
+and generating periodic interrupts.
+Interrupts could be generated with fixed number of frequencies, from 2Hz to
+8192Hz, obtained by dividing base frequency by one of supported power-of-2
+divisors.
+.Pp
+Event timer provided by the driver is irrelevant to CPU power states.
