Hi all, I've uploaded a snapshot of the if_ath HAL which i've been working on. I've been refactoring out various bits of the AR5416 HAL into something that resembles the ath9k hardware MAC/PHY operations to make it easier to port further ath9k updates over. It also includes the AR9100 support (but it's missing a couple bits of glue needed to use it outside of my GIT tree.) Finally, it includes the probe/attach operations for the AR2427, but I haven't at all tested it yet (and i've explained why it isn't working in a previous email.) It's available for download at http://people.freebsd.org/~adrian/ath/ . There's a diff against src/sys/files/conf and a tarball that just replaces the ath device/module directory. Note you'll need to add "device if_ath_pci" to your kernel configuration file as the PCI bus glue is now not built by default in a static kernel in this HAL. (It's included in the module Makefile by default.) This was done to allow multiple backend bus types - now being PCI and "AHB" for the AR9100 SoC. I'd appreciate testing by AR5416/AR9160/AR9280/AR9285 users. I only currently have easy access to AR5416/AR9160. Please let me know immediately if something doesn't work with this which does work in -head. If you're an AR2427 user, I'd appreciate some brief testing with HAL_DEBUG_ATTACH/HAL_DEBUG_EEPROM enabled (sysctl hw.ath.hal.debug=0x8002.) I doubt it'll work but it should attach and then spit out some computetxtime errors. Let me know if that happens and I'll see about trying to fix that. Adrianhome | help
