Hi Johannes, I'm currently involved in a project that requires to change a few mac timings and other stuff: this is the reason I'm very interested in decoding the Broadcom firmware, it could be a good development platform without having to buy code and sign NDAs.
I spent a couple of day trying to collect all documents about what Broadcom has acquired before 1999 and that could have been implemented into AirForce Mac Processors. I didn't find anything that was explicitly saying "we are using this core". I have now a few conjectures about the library used to build the chip, let's say a few candidate: - E14 firepath - Trimedia CPU64 - A kind of ARM core mixed with a FPGA lib I discovered some patents talking about wifi network and the CPUs of above. Do you have any idea? I also discovered this url http://www.arm.com/iqonline/news/ partnernews/15399.html check it out for future drivers. And I would very be pleased to know how did you pointed out the meaning of the opcode in the website. Thank you very much for your time, cheers, FG %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Francesco Gringoli, PhD - Assistant Professor Dept. of Electrical Engineering for Automation University of Brescia via Branze, 38 25123 Brescia ITALY Ph: ++39.030.3715843 FAX: ++39.030.380014 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
