As I am interested in developing a driver for this platform, I would like to inquire as to the state of the remaining bits to merge. As it stands now, the code merged into mainline is rather broken and incomplete. I'll be happy to grab the code myself and get the patches in proper merging order for mainline if nobody else is working / has time for it at the moment, so I'm asking first. I have a BCM63xx router and will be testing whatever I work on, both compiling and running. My current reference is the OpenWRT patchset, which is against an older kernel but seems to be working pretty well on the actual hardware. I've also seen the linux-bcm63xx.git tree. Between these I should be able to put together a decent set of commits that cleanly apply onto current mainline. Please let me know what your thoughts are, and whether I should proceed and work on this myself or whether you have other plans. -- Hector Martin (hector@marcansoft.com) Public Key: http://www.marcansoft.com/marcan.asc
