Hi Hector


Is the CYW89459 just a rebrand of the BCM4355, or just a subset? If it
is a rebrand, it's okay if we call our Apple firmware
brcmfmac89459-pcie* (note that we use per-board firmware names, so it
wouldn't conflict with a generic one). However, if CYW89459 only refers
to specific variants, I think the firmware should be named after the
overall bcm4355 family.

I'm guessing you intend to ship firmware for this. Would that firmware
work for all 4355 variants, or only the CYW one? If only the CYW one, is
it possible to differentiate between them based on PCI revision ID? Note
that our 4355 has revision ID 12, and Apple specifically calls it 4355C1
(different chip revisions have different firmware builds, which is why I
named our firmware brcmfmac4355c1-pcie). If the CYW variant uses other
revision IDs that do not overlap, maybe we should have different
firmware entries for them with different masks.


Can we make a separate table for the OTP Apple chips, something like here :-

I do not understand from this email thread why you would need separate tables. Can you explain?
