2015-11-18brcm80211: move under broadcom vendor directoryKalle Valo
Part of reorganising wireless drivers directory and Kconfig. Note that I had to edit Makefiles from subdirectories to use the new location. Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>
2015-10-21brcmfmac: rename firmware_path to alternative_fw_pathFranky Lin
In brcmfmac the module parameter "firmware_path" is used as an alternative relative path under the search path used by firmware_class or ueventhelper. Rename the parameter to alternative_fw_path to avoid confusion.

2015-08-25brcmfmac: Add support for host platform NVRAM loading.Hante Meuleman
Host platforms such as routers supported by OpenWRT can support NVRAM reading directly from internal NVRAM store. With this patch the nvram load routines will fall back to this method when there is no nvram file and support is available in the kernel.

2015-06-08brcmfmac: use direct data pointer in NVRAM parser structRafał Miłecki
As we plan to add support for platform NVRAM we should store direct data pointer without the extra struct firmware layer. This will allow us to support other sources with the only requirement being u8 buffer.

2015-06-08brcmfmac: support NVRAMs containing pci devpaths (instead of pcie)Rafał Miłecki
Recently Broadcom added support for NVRAMs with entries for multiple PCIe devices. One of the supported formats is based on prefixes defined like: devpath0=pcie/1/4/ and entries like 0:foo=bar 0:baz=qux etc. Unfortunately there are also a bit older devices using different way of defining prefixes, e.g. SmartRG SR400ac (2 x BCM43602) with entries: devpath0=pci/1/1/ devpath1=pci/2/1 Broadcom stated this old format will never be used/supported by brcmfmac but given the simplicity of this patch I'll insist on supporting it.

2015-05-28brcmfmac: allow NVRAM values to contain spacesRafał Miłecki
Platform NVRAMs often contain values with spaces. Even if right now most firmware-supported entries are simple values, we shouldn't reject these with spaces. It was semi-confirmed by Broadcom in the early patch adding support for platform NVRAMs. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com> Acked-by: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>
2015-05-28brcmfmac: treat \0 as end of comment when parsing NVRAMRafał Miłecki
This fixes brcmfmac dealing with NVRAM coming from platform e.g. from a flash MTD partition. In such cases entries are separated by \0 instead of \n which caused ignoring whole content after the first "comment". While platform NVRAM doesn't usually contain comments, we switch to COMMENT state after e.g. finding an unexpected char in key name.

2015-05-28brcmfmac: simplify check finding NVRAM v1 device pathRafał Miłecki
With a simple use of snprintf and small buffer we can compare NVRAM entry value with a full string. This way we avoid checking random chars at magic offsets. Tested on BCM43602 with NVRAM hacked to use v1 format. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>
2015-05-28brcmfmac: simplify check stripping v2 NVRAMRafał Miłecki
Comparing NVRAM entry with a full filtering string is simpler than comparing it with a short prefix and then checking random chars at magic offsets. The cost of snprintf relatively low, we execute it just once. Tested on BCM43602 with NVRAM hacked to use V2 format.

2015-05-09brcmfmac: Add support for multiple PCIE devices in nvram.Hante Meuleman
With PCIE it is possible to support multiple devices with the same device type. They all load the same nvram file. In order to support this the nvram can specify which part of the nvram is for which pcie device. This patch adds support for these new types of nvram files.

2015-01-29brcmfmac: fix nvram processingArend van Spriel
The nvram file can hold a key=value combination in which the value may have spaces, ie. 'RAW1=80 02 fe ff'. The parsing functionality did not deal with this so it gives an error message: [621746.311635] brcmfmac: brcmf_nvram_handle_key warning: ln=90:col=11: '=' expected, skip invalid key entry because RAW1=80 is being considerd as key=value pair and it expects '=' sign after '02' for next key=value pair. This entry can be completely ignored as firmware does not need it.

2014-05-29brcmfmac: introduce asynchronous firmware loadingArend van Spriel
The driver needs firmware to be loaded to the device, which is done through the firmware class API. The synchronous call request_firmware() need root filesystem to be mounted and/or user-mode helper. These may not be avaliable on the moment it is called. Instead use request_firmware_nowait().
