The only Broadcom SoC that OpenBSD supports is the one found in the Raspberry Pi, which is almost certainly completely unrelated to the Soc in your router. Broadcom doesn't publically release documentation for their SoCs. If the SoC is supported in Linux you might learn enough about it to add support for it. This isn't going to be an easy job. > My first goal is to add UART support. So I can communicate via the > serial console. > >
