+         The channel interface driver allows applications to communicate
+         with iLO/iLO2 management processors present on HP ProLiant
+         servers.  Upon loading, the driver creates /dev/hpilo/dXccbN files,
+         which can be used to gather data from the management processor,
+         via read and write system calls.
+
+         To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+         module will be called hpilo.
