This driver is based on Linux 3.8 and a previous effort by kan@.
More informations about this project can be found on the FreeBSD wiki:
https://wiki.freebsd.org/AMD_GPU
The driver is split into:
sys/dev/drm2:
The driver sources.
sys/modules/drm2/radeonkmw:
The driver main kernel module's Makefile.
sys/modules/drm2/radeonkmsfw:
All firmware kernel module Makefiles. There's one directory and one
Makefile for each firmware.
sys/contrib/dev/drm2/radeonkmsfw:
All firmware binary sources.
tools/tools/drm/radeon
Tools to update firmwares or regenerate some headers.
Merging the driver to FreeBSD 9.x may be possible but not a priority for
now.

When building AR933x test images, I'd like to only build only the ar9300
HAL. To do this, it needs to supply an RF linker entry or it won't compile.
Tested:
* AR933x test builds
NICs which have bluetooth coexistence enabled.
The WB225 NIC has the common antenna switch configuration set to 0x0 which
disables all external switch bit setting. This obviously won't work when
doing coexistence.
This value is a magic value from the windows .inf files. It _looks_ right
but I haven't yet verified it - unfortunately my AR9285+AR3012 BT combo
has an earlier BT device which doesn't actually _have_ firmware on it.
So I have to fix ath3kfw to handle loading in firmware into the newer
NICs before I can finish testing this.
This may not hold true for CUS198, which is another custom AR9485 board.
The bluetooth setup code actually does a channel lookup during setup,
even though we haven't yet programmed in a channel. Sigh.
Tested:
* WB225 (AR9485) + bluetooth
The QCA9565 is a 1x1 2.4GHz 11n chip with integrated on-chip bluetooth.
The AR9300 HAL already has support for this chip; it just wasn't
included in the probe/attach path.
Tested:
* This commit brought to you over a QCA9565 wifi connection from
FreeBSD.
* .. ie, basic STA, pings, no iperf or antenna diversity checking just yet.
work in FreeBSD.
This is still heavily a work in progress but I'd rather it start
shipping in -HEAD sooner rather than later.
This doesn't (yet) link it into the build system either for a static
kernel or as a module; that will come later (after many, many make universe
tests.)
