Hi, I just realised I forgot to announce this here!
I've been working on open sourcing the QCA 10.x mainline AR9380 HAL. It's passed legal approval (well, last week!) and you can now find it online: https://github.com/qca/qcamain_open_hal_public Now, the 30 second FAQ: * It's from Nov 27, 2012 - which means there are a few things that have changed since then - so don't use it as an authoritative reference compared to ath9k without doing much more digging! ; * It's missing certain things - including but not limited to EEPROM/OTP write, TX beamforming, spectral scan (but this will change later), fast channel change, various calibration and debug modes which are used for manufacturing; * It (mostly) compiles and runs as-is, if you're a FreeBSD user and have a HAL framework to compile it against. I've done this so open source developers can see a known good and working version of the chipset support for the AR9380 and later. If you check out my personal git fork: https://github.com/erikarn/qcamain_open_hal_public You'll see that I have a branch (local/freebsd) which contains the (mostly mechanical!) changes to FreeBSD in order to use it. And yes, this branch does compile and run in FreeBSD, giving me AR9380 and later chipset support. I have an update underway to bring it up to the latest code (well, as of March 13, 2013) and I'll send out another announcement once that's done. I'll also work with legal and engineering teams to get further features opened up. Thanks and enjoy!
