Package: firmware-brcm80211
Version: 20210315-3
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: cqu...@arcor.de

I have installed pure Debian on a Raspberry Pi 4 and the kernel shows
this error messages at boot:

jul 06 11:57:25 alcatraz kernel: brcmfmac mmc0:0001:1: firmware: failed to load brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.Raspberry Pi Foundation-Raspberry Pi 4 Model B.txt (-2)
jul 06 11:57:25 alcatraz kernel: firmware_class: See https://wiki.debian.org/Firmware for information about missing firmware
jul 06 11:57:25 alcatraz kernel: brcmfmac mmc0:0001:1: firmware: failed to load brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.txt (-2)
jul 06 11:57:26 alcatraz kernel: brcmfmac: brcmf_sdio_htclk: HT Avail timeout (1000000): clkctl 0x50

The package firmware-brcm80211 does provide a file
brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.bin but not a .txt file. I have not seen any
hardware issue, but I am not using wifi and indeed "ip a" does not
show a wifi device, so I guess that for those users using WIFI in
a Raspberry Pi 4 this would be critical.

This should be resolved with the above mentioned version, uploaded to
unstable. As the bug reported seems to only use Stable, I'm not marking it as
'done' (yet). I'll leave that up to the maintainer.

Hi,
As a though on it: As the BTS can track multiple versions and mark a
bug done in multiple versions in the sense of housekeeping cleanup the
bugs it would rather close it (it can be closed a second time if the
bug get fixed as well in stable with a respective backported version).

Regards,
Salvatore
