Re: b43 will need a firmware upgrade soon
Hallo Hendrik, Hendrik Sattler [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Am Montag 07 Januar 2008 schrieb Michael Buesch: What's the problem with all of this? Other drivers change firmware to incompatible versions on a regular basis. Look at ipw2200. There was a time when they changed the firmware basically on every kernel release. That wasn't a problem. Why would it be a problem here? Modprobe cannot use different configs for different kernel versions, so the fwpostfix option doesn't help in userspace. Why not? Put something like this in your modprobe.conf install b43 case $(uname -r) in 2.6.25*) /sbin/insmod b43 fwprefix=new;; /sbin/insmod b43;; esac It's not tested. It should only illustrate the idea!

b43 Injection?
Hello, I've started tinkering with a patch for the b43 driver to allow injection. I just wondered if anyone else has done this yet? And if there is some pointers to the differences between bcm43xx and b43 because I'm not finding it that easy so far ;) Cheers, DanBUK. ___ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list Bcm43xx-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
Re: b43 Injection?
Hello Again, I guess what is stumping me at the moment is where the struct ieee80211_tx_control *ctl comes from that is passed to b43_dma/pio_tx comes from? I have grep'ed through b43 / ssb and not come up with where it is initialised. Any pointers?

Re: b43 Injection?
Hello Ehud, Sorry I meant each function b43_dma_tx b43_pio_tx. c-box b43 # grep -Hnr b43_dma_tx * dma.c:1201:int b43_dma_tx(struct b43_wldev *dev, c-box b43 # grep -Hnr b43_pio_tx * pio.c:428:int b43_pio_tx(struct b43_wldev *dev, I am trying to convert the injection patch from bcm43xx which is found here: http://atros.org/bcm43xx-injection-linux-2.6.22.patch The issue is the newer b43 is using mac80211 therefore has more surrounding it, which I am not finding well docuemented. I have started reading http://johannes.sipsolutions.net/files/mac80211/ but it's not complete. I am now thinking that it might be possible to use b43_pio_txpacket and possibly dma_tx_fragment Cheers, Dan. ___ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list Bcm43xx-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
