Comment (by danboid):
Apart from the missing Makefile (which I suspect we don't need) this patch
applies cleanly against Haiku git.
I understand I need to update glue.c before I can build this with jam and
I suspect all that involves is adding the correct line into this section:
HAIKU_FIRMWARE_NAME_MAP(8) = {
{"iwn1000fw", "iwlwifi-1000-5.ucode"},
{"iwn4965fw", "iwlwifi-4965-2.ucode"},
{"iwn5000fw", "iwlwifi-5000-5.ucode"},
{"iwn5150fw", "iwlwifi-5150-2.ucode"},
{"iwn6000fw", "iwlwifi-6000-4.ucode"},
{"iwn6000g2afw", "iwlwifi-6000g2a-6.ucode"},
{"iwn6000g2bfw", "iwlwifi-6000g2b-6.ucode"},
{"iwn6050fw", "iwlwifi-6050-5.ucode"}
};
That raises 2 questions for a total Haiku dev newb like me:
1 - How do I know what the correct value is to enter in the left column?
My guess would be "iwn2030fw". Yes, my device is a 2230 and supposedly
thats what this patch adds support for but everything in the patch refers
to 2030.
2 - The firmware file is:
src/add-
ons/kernel/drivers/network/wlan/iprowifi4965/contrib/dev/iwn/iwlwifi-2030-18.168.6.1.fw.uu
Do I need to move that somewhere or just rename to something.ucode instead
of iwlwifi-2030-18.168.6.1.fw.uu?
