Hi Henry,

Broadcom would like to announce the initial release of a
fully-open Linux driver for it's latest generation of 11n
chipsets. The driver, while still a work in progress, is
released as full source and uses the native mac80211 stack. It
supports multiple current chips (BCM4313, BCM43224, BCM43225) as
well as providing a framework for supporting additional chips in
the future, including mac80211-aware embedded chips. The README
and TODO files included with the sources provide more details
about the current feature set, known issues, and plans for
improving the driver.
The driver is currently available in staging-next git tree,
available at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging-next-2.6.git
in the drivers/staging/brcm80211 directory.
Are there any plans to support BCM4319 and BCM4329 SDIO chipsets?
I think those are supported by the broadcom driver in the android
kernel trees, right?
I know the BCM4329 is, it's in the Nexus One.
If so, yes, there are plans for merging them into the main kernel
tree, and any help you can provide would be appreciated.
I'm currently working through the checkpatch issues for staging/brcm80211/*, so far, I've done:
ERROR: "foo * bar" should be "foo *bar"
ERROR: open brace '{' following function dec...
ERROR: return is not a function, paren...
ERROR: do not use assignment in if condition
ERROR: trailing statements should be on next line
ERROR: that open brace { ... prev line
ERROR: while should follow close brace '}'
ERROR: do not initialise globals to 0 or NULL
ERROR: do not initialise statics to 0 or NULL
ERROR: Macros w/ complex values ... parenthesis
ERROR: Macros w/ mult. statements ... do - while loop
The only remaining errors are whitespace, then I'll move on to warnings.
Since this is my first large (arguably trivial ;-) ) patchset, do you want them one by one as I finish them, or the whole thing in one shot?
btw, each "ERROR: ..." line above is one commit.
thx,
Jason.
