  FreeBSD src repository

  Modified files:
sys/modules/iwi Makefile sys/dev/iwi if_iwi.c if_iwireg.h if_iwivar.h Log: Load firmware images directly from the filesystem (looks into /etc/firmware directory by default) without requiring the user to load them by hand using
  e.g iwicontrol.  Get rid of the old ioctl crud.
  Updated iwi-firmware port coming soon.


Rather than hack individual drivers this should be done in a generic way.

Right, but such an approach won't work for storage drivers like isp(4). Couldn't you just generalize the approach used by ispfw(4)? It uses the kld module approach to get the firmware into kernel memory.
