Hi,

I've been working on updating sunxi-devel to include more
recent versions if your gmac patches, as well as adding support
for the wifi + bluetooth found on the cubietruck.

Here is my current work on this:

https://github.com/jwrdegoede/linux-sunxi/commits/sunxi-devel

It is close to working, but unfortunately it does not work,
here is what I get in dmesg when I modprove the module:

[   99.700889] brcmfmac_sdio mmc1:0001:1: device tree node not found

Can you enable debug logging in brcmfmac, ie. debug=0xd416 so I can have
a look.

I've captured a log with these flags until the first "Scanning already"
message, you can find it here:

Bedankt, Hans

Looking at the log it looks more or less ok. wpa_supplicant (assume you
use that) first does three regular scans which end with no APs found.
Not sure why that happens unless you are in a shielded room :-)

Actually it seems that wifi reception in my room, combined with the low
yield of the chip antenna on the cubietruck is actually so bad that
it is possible for the list to show up empty.

I've verified this with the android image on the cubietruck, and after
moving the cubietruck around a bit to get better reception I now have
things working :)

I do wonder about the brcmf_fil_cmd_data errors though, IMHO those should
be avoided if possible.

Regards,

Hans
