Procedure for donating hardware to b43 project
Hello,
I am interested in donating a Broadcom BCM94228HMB Mini-PCIe card for the purpose of open source driver development. The card has the PCI ID 14e4:4359 This device is listed as not tested on the b43 driver website
[1] and upon binding the pci device to the bcma driver and force loading b43 in kernel version 3.3.6 I get the following output.
[13174.301451] bcma: Core 0 found: ChipCommon (manuf 0x4BF, id 0x800, rev 0x25, class 0x0) [13174.301475] bcma: Core 1 found: IEEE 802.11 (manuf 0x4BF, id 0x812, rev 0x1E, class 0x0) [13174.301526] bcma: Core 2 found: PCIe (manuf 0x4BF, id 0x820, rev 0x12, class 0x0) [13174.301548] bcma: Core 3 found: SDIO Device (manuf 0x4BF, id 0x829, rev 0x07, class 0x0) [13174.301667] bcma: PLL init unknown for device 0xA8DC [13174.301669] bcma: PMU resource config unknown for device 0xA8DC [13174.301671] bcma: PMU switch/regulators init unknown for device 0xA8DC [13174.301672] bcma: Workarounds unknown for device 0xA8DC [13174.308903] bcma: No SPROM available [13174.308995] bcma: Bus registered [13174.327537] b43-phy0: Broadcom 43228 WLAN found (core revision 30) [13174.327953] b43-phy0 ERROR: FOUND UNSUPPORTED PHY (Analog 9, Type 9, Revision 0) [13174.327958] b43: probe of bcma0:1 failed with error -95 [13174.327968] Broadcom 43xx driver loaded [ Features: PMNLS ]
Incidentally the card seems to have a Bluetooth component as well, but this does not show up at all under linux.
So what would be the procedure to donate this card to someone who knows a more about the b43 driver and devices so this device can be supported in the future?
Thanks and regards.

Does anyone want this piece of hardware?

I have been holding back in case someone spoke up, but as no one has, I would be happy to add it to my collection.
I will send you my mailing address in a separate post.
Thanks,
