Subject: brcmsmac features/TODO?


Hi.

Referring to:
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/brcm80211

I was wondering if there is a roadmap/plan to implement 40MHz channels
and powersave for the brcmsmac driver in the not too distant future.

brcmsmac is by far the single most powerhungry device in my MBA, if
powertop is to be trusted. Would be great to have that fixed. I guess
enabling hw encryption will contribute positively in this regard as well.

Not asking for hard commitments, just wondering if the Broadcom guys
have a plan...

Brett? Arend? Franky?


Thanks,

Dag B.
