John and Michael,

I have good news regarding the driver mentioned in the subject. It is now 
working on my BCM4311 with 
performance that is nearly as good as for the softmac driver.

My approach has been to take the PHY and radio parts of the softmac driver and 
use them with as much 
of the bcm43xx-mac80211 code as possible. It therefore uses the SSB driver as 
part of the front end.

My plan is to clean up the code, check it with my BCM4306 and BCM4318 devices, 
and then make it 
available as a patch against the mainline source for more general testing. At 
the same time, I will 
publish the results of my performance testing of all 3 models. Once it is shown 
to be reliable, a 
decision can be made regarding its inclusion in mainline and if it should 
support B and G devices, 
or be restricted to B-only devices. The A-PHY code has been stripped out.

Larry
