Re: wpi (Intel 3945) driver

Hi all,

Is anybody actively developing this driver?

I've been debugging it for the last day or two and am now at the point where it's pretty stable for me (at least, I no longer get deadlocks and the issue of the firmware getting confused seems resolved). I have a load of other changes I intend to make, and a few bits which would be nice to merge in from the OpenBSD driver, but obviously I don't want to continue doing this if somebody else has done any work on it.

If nobody has, then I'm happy to take up the job of centrally co-ordinating patches, with a view to getting the driver to the point where it could be merged into the main FreeBSD tree. I'm already keeping my changes in my local CVS repo...

Hello,


I don't have the knowledge to work on it, but I'd like to test your version. I always had allocation issues with a wpi driver that was flying over and over threads and could never get it to work, so I really would like to test your one if you could upload it somewhere. Or I can make a mirror if you don't have the opportunity.

Regards,
Gabor
