Package: firmware-brcm80211 Version: 20200918-1~bop10+1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, Steps to reproduce: 1. flash latest tested Raspberry Pi 4 image and boot 2. update all packages 3. install hostapd 4. configure the onboard wlan device as an 802.11n AP Expected results: AP works Actual results: hostapd claims the AP is enabled, but it's actually not Work-around: 1. apt purge firmware-brcm80211 2. cp /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43455.* from a current stable Raspbian install - this appears to work even despite the fact that Raspbian is 32-bit - the driver still throws a warning about a missing brcmfmac43455-sdio.raspberrypi,4-model-b.txt file, but this file is not included with stable Raspbian, and its absence doesn't appear to cause any problems beyond the warning The brcmfmac43455 firmware in firmware-brcm80211 appears to be much older than what Raspbian stable is currently shipping -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.7 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'stable-updates') Architecture: arm64 (aarch64) Kernel: Linux 5.9.0-0.bpo.2-arm64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_CRAP Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled firmware-brcm80211 depends on no packages. firmware-brcm80211 recommends no packages. Versions of packages firmware-brcm80211 suggests: ii initramfs-tools 0.133+deb10u1

Version: 20210208-4 Thanks latest upstream version in unstable is known to work with hostapd. (attention current -3 testing version is known to *not* work on RPi4) if the original issues are still reproducible with 20210208-4, please let us know together with relevant hostapd.conf. thank you. -- maksAttachment: signature.asc
