Do you know help me for my Broadcom Wifi ?

V: 14e4

D: 4365

Theoretically it is posible. I need to know where do you have your WiFi at your DSDT.

I think you should use AirPortBrcm4331 and edid plist. Perhaps to do bin-patch as well(3143->6543). And correct your DSDT.

This is example of my DSDT.

before

			 OperationRegion (PXCS, PCI_Config, 0x40, 0xC0)
			 Field (PXCS, AnyAcc, NoLock, WriteAsZeros)
			 {

					 , 30,
				 HPEX, 1,
				 PMEX, 1,

			 }

				 })
			 }
			 Method (_PRT, 0, NotSerialized)
			 {
				 If (PICM)
				 {
					 Return (AR04 ())
				 }
				 Return (PR04 ())
			 }
		 }

without amending DSDT, my wifi didn't work.

I think it's the final version. Drivers supports 15 models. I can do nothing more. Driver became twice or four times stable.

A month of testing my BCM5722D stops only two time. But now it stops not at one. While those cessation I could't go to the internet through the Google Chrome, but my uTorrent was working although it lost part of speed.

But nevertheless BCM5722D became really more stable as I can download 10Gb and more. Before it had stopped three or four times.

I think that it was even more better we should study data-sheets and influence of it on chipset. And it already is hard problem.

Hi Alex,

 

First of all, thank you for your work.

I use your driver for my Dell T3500 network card (BCM5761) - it is not in the list, so I add PID to the kext manually (0x1681).

It has freezes on early version, but now it works perfectly.

Except one thing: if I try to connect to AFP file share, I have a kernel panic with IONetworkingFamily.kext appearing on the screen less than for a second, and then reboot. SMB works okay. System is Mountain Lion.

What are you think about this?

Thank you that you told me BCM5761 works with this driver.
I added your model to the code.
Do Appstore and iCloud work on your computer?
Was Ethernet-card detected as "Built-In"?
I recommend to made some cosmetic to DSDT as well.

What are you think about this?

If I won't be able to help you in the letter. You can write about your problem here.
Maybe apianti will help us to improve driver to a greater extent else.

Is your card Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, or System Gigabit Ethernet maybe we should edit Register.h a little.
Eh. If adlan came back, it would be cool!

Thank you that you told me BCM5761 works with this driver. I added your model to the code.

 

Thanks, no need to insert id manually, cool :)

 

Do Appstore and iCloud work on your computer?

 

Yes, full working, and I use them. iMessage also activated and working.

 

Was Ethernet-card detected as "Built-In"?

 

Seems to be no - in PCI Cards I have only videoadapter, and in Ethernet Cards there is not built-in string. But Time Machine is working and I enable LAN fix in clover (I attached my config.plist, FixDsdtMask=0x2087, bit 13 set to 1). I do not use custom dsdt, only Clover fixes.

 

Is your card Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, or System Gigabit Ethernet maybe we should edit Register.h a little.

 

Yes, it is Gigabit Ethernet. Whan should I edit and where? I have XCode installed so I can try to compile it on my machine and send you any diagnostic information you need. Also feel free to contact me on email, Skype or ICQ (or in this thread, of course) at any time.

 

Upd. Yep, it compiles succesfully on xCode 4.4

Year. This is a hard problem.

We need to do driver over as our cards are not technically supported wholly by driver.

To amend it we need dig the broadcom's instruction for developers. http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/open_source.php

And each of these are about 660 pages. I'm know programming a little. And it will took me for several mounths to try to solve it.

And nothig can guarantee that it will be sucsefful. But I don't give up from it.

Does kernel panic occur during the connection or transmission of some files?

Does uttrent stops at the time of intense traffic?

Please, describe your problem here as well.

http://www.projectosx.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=2665&pid=29702&mode=threaded&start=#entry29702

Apianti can give me a hint how to solve this problem as it was in the case of problem of inttence traffic.

I understand how it can be difficult. May be kext can be debugged into an XCode? May be I can somehow trace it and locate the problem?

Upd: Seems to be kernel debugging is too complicated for me and required working network. Anyway, I can try add Log, use kextload, and see log messages in system.log after reboot.

It occurs when I connecting to the AFP file share - sometimes immediately, sometimes after opening volume, folder - no downloading required to reproduce.

Done.

Year debug version can help what part of code consist error.

And I also replaced Stall to Dropped in BCM5722D.cpp Maybe it will help.

Hi!

I've tried an old Version of adlan's kext on SL and got it working by adding device PID 1680 to Info.plist.

 

On ML that doesn't work!

I got failed to load kext message after a while.

 

So could you please be so kind and add BCM5761E with device ID 1680 to the ML define kext?

 

Refering to Moritron's post I think that should work, because it is close to BCM5761.

 

Thanks for your efforts!

Ok, please try this one. It's debug version. If it works, I'll made a release version that does not spam kernel log

Hi Alex!

 

First of all I want to thank you for your great work on the kext and your quick reply.

 

I've tried the debug version and now I don't get any error that the kext can't load when I place it in /S/L/E.

 

When I boot up in verbose-mode I see "BCM5722D..." but I can't see something like "link established, 100M, full duplex" like I saw it in SL.

 

When I look into the systeminfo under the point Ethernet I can't see my card.

 

Do you have any idea how I should go on from now?

 

 

Thank You!

For example, I have this at verbose mode

I understand so that you don't see correct information in systeminfo.

Mine is

If you have problems with that I think you should do some cosmetics

Hi!

 

I had some time now to try to patch my dsdt.

 

I got "Can't find Method DTGP" than, so I copied it from this thread: http://www.insanelym...vice-id-eg-usb/

I got it compiled than, but I still can't see my ethernet device.

 

6hg6qdy7.png

 

In verbose mode I see

BCM5722D (Build date/time: Jun 7 2013 13:26:07)

 

but I can't see

my_name_adlan_BCM5722D: Model: BCM5761E NetLink (TM) Gigabit Ethernet
my_name_adlan_BCM5722D: Loaded successfully

 

For a better overview I've attached a screenshot of my devices in my Dell Latitude E5500 I made with a programm called System Info:

xeeclzuz.png

 

I'll upload my original and patched dsdt file too, so maybe someone can take a look at it and say what might be wrong.

 

 

Thank you for your help!

Message for everybody. Unfortunately driver still stops during working of torrents. But not so often how it was in the past.

I think it is problem with queue of pakets and we should create extra condition. Namely restaring queue in the case of stalling

}

 

if (dirty_tx != ldirty_tx)

{

DLog("R1000TxInterrupt cleaned up %d Tx packets\n", ldirty_tx - dirty_tx);

dirty_tx = ldirty_tx;

// restart transmit queue in case we had been stalled

transmitQueue->start();

}

}

https://github.com/paxswill/RealtekR1000SL/...ltekR1000SL.cpp

I took this part of code from here.

But I don't know how to make it correctly for BCM5722D.cpp. What should dirty_tx and inirty_tx be for the case of BCM5722D.

Later I'll try to solve it or maybe apianti will help me if he is not so busy.

I´m using this driver for my BCM5761, it´s working but i have still the same problem then on the old versions.

 

If i have to restart, i´ve to wait 10 - 30 seconds until i power on the machine again.

If i restart without waiting, the kext will not detect a mac address for this device and the networkcard will not work.

 

It would be really great if someone can have a look on this problem.

 

Thanks....

Hello Alex,

 

please try the attached code. As I don't have access to the hardware the code is completely untested. Therefore I would like you to run some tests for me with the debug build and report back.

 

  1. Check if the kext loads properly and that the adapter gets assigned an IP address.
  2. Ping to another machine in your LAN to verify basic operation.
  3. Use iperf to another machine in your LAN to verify that TCP and UDP are working.

While running the tests keep an eye on the network statistics using Network Utility. Please send me your complete kernel log after the tests so that I can check if everything is working as expected or in case of problems to give me some hints in order to track down the issue. Instead of posting them in the forum you can mail them directly to me. My mail address can be found in the source code of my Realtek driver. I guess you have already noticed that.

 

Good luck!

 

Mieze

Thank you so much! I seems that driver doesn't stop as it was before.

I made a debug version and use L2TP connection as my ethernet has 70M/bit of speed. And I've downloaded torrent which size was 11GB and velosity was 8MB/sec(Mbite)

But to be sure I must test driver over one week at least that It discontinued stopping.

Later I will make kexts for ML,L, and SL when driver will be ready.

 

In order to achieve 100% stable operation we will have to add a watchdog that resets the chip in case of randomly occurring transmitter deadlocks. We also need some synchronization between transmitter and receiver to prevent outputPacket() from accessing the hardware while the NIC gets reset to recover from a deadlock.

 

Another point is that there is still some room for improvement left. As far as I can see all NICs of the BCM5722 series, with exception of the 5906(M), also support checksum offload for TCP/IPv6 and UDP/IPv6 and it shouldn't be a big deal to implement that. TCP segmentation offload would also be a nice feature.  :)

Would it be possible to have a look on my problem.

I´ve to wait after a shutdown about 10 - 30 Seconds until i can restart the computer, otherwise the driver doesn´t detects the MAC Address of the network card. ( a restart is not possible if i want to have a working network)

It is necessary mull over deeply why does it happen?. Do you have BIOS or UEFI?

And try last debug version for ML, maybe it will give a hint.

Look at kernel.log and Kernel boot messages
