Just out of curiosity what is the blocker for the built in radio chip on the Raspberry Pi 3/3+?
Looking for a port of the ath11k driver
Good evening! I am in the process of porting FreeBSD to the Windows 2023 Dev Kit (Project Volterra). This is a somewhat affordable high performance ARM system and as such an interesting FreeBSD target. The system comes with a Qualcomm QCNFA765 802.11ax card, apparently supported through the ath11k driver on Linux. This driver is BSD3CLAUSE licensed and might perhaps be portable to FreeBSD. It would be great to have support for this card. Is there anybody who is interested in writing a driver / porting this driver to FreeBSD?

Hi Bjoern, This sounds phantastic! Please keep me posted on your efforts! Let me know if there is anything (such as testing) I can assist with.

Thank you for your response. While it would be great if that worked, I don't know enough about these kernel subsystems to add the mising bits and pieces myself. I'll try a different adapter in the meanwhile. Yours, Robert Clausecker -- () ascii ribbon campaign - for an encoding-agnostic world /\ - against html email - against proprietary attachments

Yes, the package is installed.

Is the ASUS USB-AC53 WLAN adapter supported?
I have just purchased an ASUS USB-AC53 USB WLAN adapter.
This adapter identifies itself as follows:
ugen0.2: at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH (480Mbps)
pwr=ON (500mA)
bLength = 0x0012
bDescriptorType = 0x0001
bcdUSB = 0x0210
bDeviceClass = 0x
bDeviceSubClass = 0x
bDeviceProtocol = 0x
bMaxPacketSize0 = 0x0040
idVendor = 0x0b05
idProduct = 0x184c
bcdDevice = 0x0210
iManufacturer = 0x0001
iProduct = 0x0002 <802.11ac NIC>
iSerialNumber = 0x0003 <123456>
bNumConfigurations = 0x0001
There's a match for this driver in /usr/src/sys/contrib/dev/rtw88/rtw8822bu.c:
{ USB_DEVICE_AND_INTERFACE_INFO(0x0b05, 0x184c, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff),
.driver_info = (kernel_ulong_t)&(rtw8822b_hw_spec) }, /* ASUS U2 */
but if I load rtw88, nothing happens.
Is there any step I'm missing to make this adapter work?

Driver for Qualcomm QCNFA765?
Greetings! I just obtained a Lenovo Thinkpad T16 AMD Gen2 with a Qualcomm QNFA765 WLAN module. Is support for this module present or planned for FreeBSD? If not, what other options do I have?
