Hi,

I've been working on updating sunxi-devel to include more
recent versions if your gmac patches, as well as adding support
for the wifi + bluetooth found on the cubietruck.

Here is my current work on this:

https://github.com/jwrdegoede/linux-sunxi/commits/sunxi-devel

It is close to working, but unfortunately it does not work,
here is what I get in dmesg when I modprove the module:

[   99.700889] brcmfmac_sdio mmc1:0001:1: device tree node not found

Can you enable debug logging in brcmfmac, ie. debug=0xd416 so I can have
a look.
I've captured a log with these flags until the first "Scanning already"
message, you can find it here:
Bedankt, Hans

Looking at the log it looks more or less ok. wpa_supplicant (assume you
use that) first does three regular scans which end with no APs found.
Not sure why that happens unless you are in a shielded room :-) After
those scans wpa_supplicant tries to tell the device to do a so-called
scheduled scan. Basically, it is a scan offload. However, the driver
still thinks there is a regular scan ongoing. This needs to be
investigated more.
Thanks for looking into this. I've nothing scheduled this entire Sunday
except working on hobby projects. If there is anything I can do to help,
you can find me in #linux-sunxi on freenode irc. My nick is hansg.

I would really like to get this working, so feel free to poke me to run
any tests / debug log gathering exercises you think will be helpful.

Regards,

Hans
