Table of PCIs, chipsets, etc. on b43 wiki page

[Rafał Miłecki]

I'd like to propose little (nothing big) reogranisation of b43 hardware table:
http://wireless.kernel.org/Zajec?action=recall&rev=4

Changed columns support/supported and driver/alternatives.

Are you fine with that? Can we use colored one?

I like the colored one.

Some small changes:

I would eliminate the second 14e4:4312 line and move the wl entry to the first
one. I don't know if wl supports 5 GHz on that chip. I don't have mine any longer.

On the 4315, make it "(PIO mode for some systems)". I have two of them and both
work fine with DMA mode in b43.

The entry for 14e4:4324 is out of numerical order.

To champion the open-source cause, I would put brcm80211 ahead of wl whenever
both drive a particular chip.

Do you know anything about that duplicated ID? Is that true at all?
Why we don't support device with that duplicated ID? Why do you want
to remove it?

I'm not sure that there really is an 802.11b/g device with ID 14e4:4312. There
are two flavors of BCM4312, one that is 802.11a/b/g (14e4:4312), and an
802.11b/g device with ID 14e4:4315, which is the LP PHY. I suspect that the
confusion over the two BCM4312 items led to the duplicate entry in this table.

The device with PCI ID 0x4312 is called BCM4311 (dual-band) - check
Broadcom's official brochure on BCM4311 (has a single-band and a
dual-band version). Same for 0x4319 - it's actually BCM4318 dual-band
(for example, the BCM94318MPAGH has this ID). The only BCM4312 is
0x4315 (also, there exists no "BCM4315", and while BCM4310 might
indeed be real, it has nothing to do with PCI ID 0x4315). Apparently
the correlation between PCI ID and chip ID only exists for pure G-PHY
cards.

A look into a recent bcmdevs.h agrees with this. But the correlation
seems to be true for only a few devices, and one is a dualband chip

It doesn't seem to be complete though; I have a 2G BCM4322 on
a BCM6358 board that uses the PCI ID 14e4:4322.

Can you double check that your 14e4:4322 is BCM4322, check it's PHY
version (plus revision) and add entry for it in table:

The proprietary broadcom driver identifies it as a BCM4322, as does b43:

b43-phy0: Broadcom 4322 WLAN found (core revision 16)
b43-phy0 ERROR: FOUND UNSUPPORTED PHY (Analog 8, Type 4, Revision 4)

Will do. I assume the r<number> means the PHY revision?

Please recheck the PCI ID for this one. That Revision 4 N PHY (type 4) with a
Revision 16 802.11 core looks to be the same as my device with ID 14e4:432b.

This 14e4:4312 is BCM4311 according to our logs and driver loads
b0g0initvals5, so it is G-PHY.

I meant "lie" of course. I also Googled for:
"14e4:4312" "Broadcom 4312 wlan found"
and then for:
"14e4:4312" "Broadcom 4311 wlan found"
the first one won't give you any real, non-false, results.

According to http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/14e4/4312 john.s.gustafsson
submitted name for this PCI ID containing "BCM4312". He probably
though PCI ID is in direct relation with Broadcom chipset used on
card.

john.s.gustafsson referred to link:
https://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/bcm43xx-dev/2007-March/004312.html
that does not work. I searched mails from March 2007, but didn't find
anything related.

We really need to treat this as mistake and fix table and pci database.

I've submitted "fix" to database as discussion at:
https://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/14e4/4312?action=list

Is that correct way of doing that? This site seems a little... weird.

I've received mail about approving my change. Big confusion finally
explained and corrected :)

Hm, it was actually you who added that entry:

Looks good. We could remove "PIO-only" references from LPPHY devs. That seems outdated.
