* The default kernel and options won't build the GPL PHY bits;
* bwn(4) defaults to building as a module anyway!;
* If BWN_GPL_PHY is specified in the config file, and you uncomment
the GPL PHY bits in the module Makefile, you'll get a working
N-PHY.
This is specifically designed to be obtuse for now, as I don't want
to flip it on by default. It's easy enough for people to flip on
and build, and it's a module so the default GENERIC kernel won't be
GPL tainted.
I'll have to add an actual HAL layer that allows the GPL PHY to be loaded
before if_bwn so it can be "magic", but that'll come later.
Tested:
* BCM4321 11abg NIC, STA mode
* Break out the 'g' phy code;
* Break out the debugging bits into a separate source file, since
some debugging prints are done in the phy code;
* Make some more chip methods in if_bwn.c public.
This brings the size of if_bwn.c down to 6,805 lines which is now
approaching managable.
This (and eventually migrating the other PHY code out) is in preparation
for adding the 11n PHY. No, the 11ac PHY (for the BCM4260 softmac part) isn't
yet open source, so we can't grow that. Yet.
This trims ~3,700 lines of code from if_bwn.c, bringing it down to a slightly
less crazy sounding 10,446 lines of code.
CWARNFALGS.$file centrally so we don't have to have it in all the
places. Remove a few warning flags that are no longer needed.
Also, always use -Wno-unknown-pragma to (hopefully temporarily) work
around #pragma ident in debug.h in the opensolaris code. Remove some
stale warning suppression that's no longer necessary.
o uses v4 firmware instead of v3. A port will be committed to create
the bwn firmware module.
o supports B/G and LP(low power) PHYs.
o supports 32 / 64 bits DMA operations.
o tested on big / little endian machines so should work on all
architectures.
It'd not connected to the build until the firmware port is committed.
