Hi all,
sent this message while still composing it, I'm tying to get BCM4352 to work on 
my freebsd current machine.

here is some information about my machine and what I've been trying

uname -a
FreeBSD ant.firecrow.com 12.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 12.0-CURRENT #3: Wed Mar 21 
23:01:07 EDT 2018     

I'm working under the assumption that the broadcom chipset is compatible with 
an existing driver it just needs the pci information linked in, so I've tried 
to add the interfaces to if_bwn_pci.c

dmesg shows that it recognizes the device, but the usual information from a 
network device is not listed, as if the device is registered but not treated as 
a network device.
> dmesg | grep bwn

all help welcome
