Same here, from last update of kernel (5.4 to 5.8) the controller for BCM4352 doesnt't work. I fix it reinstalling the package bcmwl-kernel- source from http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/restricted/b/bcmwl /bcmwl-kernel-source_6.30.223.271+bdcom-0ubuntu7_amd64.deb
Hope future updates will be fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bcmwl in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1910555 Title: Driver build error on kernel 5.8, but works on 5.4 Status in bcmwl package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Recently kernel was updated on Focal from 5.4 to 5.8. From that moment on WiFi doesn't work anymore. After a try rebuild (reconfigure) the result is: --------------------------------------------------- # dpkg-reconfigure bcmwl-kernel-source Removing all DKMS Modules Done.

Seems something is going wrong with missing function declaration - function "ioremap_nocache", as could be seen in attached make.log. I'm guessing, driver code may need be updated according to the new kernel headers.
