Re: Would Raspberry Pi 3's wifi be supported by NetBSD arm port?



The first question is if the device itself will work. As with its
predecessor, I´m not able to find a datasheet of the BCM2837.

I wonder what has changed, e.g. with respect to timers and the
interrupt controller. Anyone having a clue?
