nono, don't. SSB is still in heavy development and this would
slow it down by magnitudes.
The reason it's in wireless-dev is, because b44-ssb is simply just
a "sideeffect" of ssb. ssb is mainly written for bcm43xx. That
b44 also has a ssb bus is cool, so it can re-use the code. But
there's _no_ reason to get ssb mainline without bcm43xx going
mainline, too. b44-mainline does not depend on ssb. Current mainline
has the ssb code built into b44. The b44 port in wireless-dev just rips
that code out and uses the ssb subsystem (so it also adds
a few features to b44. For example the ability to dump and write
the EEPROM).

It's really helpful to have the development of b44-ssb in
wireless-dev, because there still are heavy changes in ssb.
Being required to merge a ssb change through mainline before
I can implement a new feature (or fix a bug) in bcm43xx-dev is just
not acceptable.

The _final_ merging is another story. I think a few days before
wireless-dev is merged mainline ssb and b44-ssb should be merged
mainline seperately. Just to make it clear that these are not
wireless related. (ssb is not wireless related, too. Strictly said).

Short: "totally unrelated wireless changes" is a false statement ;)

Btw, what's the reason this is in wireless-dev?  Could we please merge
this code into mainline soonish (aka 2.6.22) instead of interwinding
it with totally unrelated wireless changes?

Sorry for this stupid bug. I'm to blame. :)
The SSB config is already selected by B44. B44_PCI is for
adding the PCI support routines.

The following patch is the right one to fix the issue
completely.

It depends on B44, which selects SSB.

This also requires a depends or select on SSB.

FWIW, this is coming from the port of b44 to use the SSB bus which
I'm carrying in the wireless-dev tree.

SSB (i.e. "Sonics Silicon Backplane") is a bus used in Broadcom SoCs
including the b44 and bcm43xx hardware.  The SSB bus driver and the
b44 port to SSB is being developed by Michael Buesch, the maintainer of
the bcm43xx driver.  I've been carrying the b44 SSB port in my tree for
Michael's convenience.  Just an FYI for those wondering what SSB is...

SSB/b44 build failure

Hi,

In 2.6.21-rc3-mm2, with CONFIG_SSB=y but all other SSB kconfig
symbols disabled, I get this (on x86_64):

drivers/built-in.o: In function `b44_init':
b44.c:(.init.text+0x6e04): undefined reference to `ssb_pcihost_register'
b44.c:(.init.text+0x6e2c): undefined reference to `ssb_pcihost_unregister'
