Subject: [PATCH RFC wireless-next 4/4] wifi: b43: enable the AC-PHY support
Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2026 18:56:56 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261112175656.40686-5-gonsolo@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261112175656.40686-1-gonsolo@gmail.com>

The AC-PHY now brings up a BCM4352/BCM4360 on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz and
transmits and receives with HT (20 MHz, 2.4 GHz) and VHT (80 MHz, 5 GHz),
the two that were tested. Remove the
dependency on BROKEN and say what is missing: no TX calibration, no TX
power control beyond the hardware loop, no hardware crypto and no power
save.
