The bcm4329 is using the SSB interconnect. That surprised me, interesting. I've never dig into brcmfmac code. This still should be possible to adopt brcmfmac to use ssb, right? A first random ssb-related function: dhdsdio_chip_resetcore. It duplicates ssb code. I'm still willing to help in brcmfmac development. -- Rafał _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
