Are we to understand that the default wireless device
of the Apple M1 is not functional yet with openbsd ?
I thought differently upon reading web "tutorials",
but now that I have successfully installed my blowfish
on the MacBook Air fw_update won't work (using bwfm).
Is there a detailed/specific set of instructions on
how to make the wifi work either using fw_update or else
or pre-emptively with the Avahi installer ?

While this listing shows
bwfm0 at pci1 dev 0 function 0 "Broadcom BCM4378" rev 0x03: msi
and it worked (I pkg_add-u'd the packages after the upgrade),
now I don't even have bwfm - with this same kernel, or with
an older /obsd (#31 of May's 7.5).
I blame the macOS upgrade to 15.0 (24A335) but I can't be sure.
Is it possible the macOS upgrade did something to the firmware?
OpenBSD has bwfm-firmware-20200316.1.3p3 installed.
OpenBSD/arm64 on Apple hardware doesn't use firmware from
bwfm-firmware,
there's some process to copy it from MacOS via the Asahi installer and
it's then picked up by the OpenBSD installer. (I'm not sure of all the
details, the only option for wifi on mine involves a chain of dongles).
But if it's not showing in dmesg at all, you're not at the point where
firmware would be used anyway.
dmesg might be useful if you've got some way to transport it (usb
stick,
usb ethernet, etc)
Also, I have lost hw.sensors.aplsmc,
not sure how that would happen ...
I'll try another upgrade once I get a USB-C stick I can use.
Worth a try.
