I have an old netbook with a Broadcom bcm4312 802.11b/g lp-phy [14e4:4315] (rev 01) wifi device. This works up to and including the 4.16 kernel, but not with 4.17-rc5. The b43, mac80211, cfg80211, ssb and mmc_core modules are loaded OK, as is the firmware, and the wlan0 interface will come up, but any attempt to use the interface fails and it cannot (for example) scan. No useful error messages are given. The interface (wlan0) is just reported as not being ready. Chris
