tpudrv12.h: FCDEV3B goes back to being itself A while back we had the idea of a FreeCalypso modem family whereby our current fcdev3b target would some day morph into fcmodem, with multiple FC modem family products, potentially either triband or quadband, being firmware-compatible with each other and with our original FCDEV3B. But in light of the discovery of Tango modules that earlier idea is now being withdrawn: instead the already existing Tango hw is being adopted into our FreeCalypso family. Tango cannot be firmware-compatible with triband OM/FCDEV3B targets because the original quadband RFFE on Tango modules is wired in TI's original Leonardo arrangement. Because this Leonardo/Tango way is now becoming the official FreeCalypso way of driving quadband RFFEs thanks to the adoption of Tango into our FC family, our earlier idea of extending FIC's triband RFFE control signals with TSPACT5 no longer makes much sense - we will probably never produce any new hardware with that once-proposed arrangement. Therefore, that triband-or-quadband FCFAM provision is being removed from the code base, and FCDEV3B goes back to being treated the same way as CONFIG_TARGET_GTAMODEM for RFFE control purposes.

8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	57 code are unclear. We (FreeCalypso) have repeatedly reached out to TI over the
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	58 years, explaining in our letters to TI exactly what we are doing with their old
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	59 code and asking for licensing clarification, but never received any response.
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	60
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	61 In the absence of any communication from TI telling us otherwise, we operate on
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	62 the assumption that the license terms applicable to the code we are using from
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	63 TI are the same as customary in the semiconductor device industry as a whole.
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	64 It is customary in the industry for makers of many complex integrated circuit
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	65 (IC) chips to also produce specialized firmware that is required in order to
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	66 use these chips effectively; if any given semiconductor device company X is
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	67 primarily in the business of making and selling IC chips and provides firmware
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	68 solely as an accessory to those chips rather than as a product in its own right,
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	69 then the following license terms are generally customary for all such firmware
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	70 articles throughout the industry:
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	71
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	72 * Because the firmware is a required accessory for making use of the chips and
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	73 because the chips rather than the firmware are the revenue-generating product,
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	74 IC chip makers almost universally license their firmware under terms that
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	75 allow unlimited use of the firmware FOR AS LONG AS that firmware is used
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	76 together with chips bought from the company, and not otherwise.
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	77
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	78 * It is generally considered severe misuse and likely copyright infringement or
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	79 IP theft to take some company's firmware and use it WITHOUT buying the
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	80 original chips for which that firmware was made.
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	81
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	82 Back to FreeCalypso and TI, we (FreeCalypso) use TI's code ONLY by way of
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	83 running it on genuine TI-made Calypso chips which we buy on various IC surplus
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	84 markets. Even though these chips were originally made by TI decades ago and TI
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	85 has likely lost all institutional memory of them, the fact remains that at some
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	86 point in the distant past these chips were legitimately sold by and bought from
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	87 TI, with all subsequent transfers of ownership falling under the first-sale
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	88 doctrine. When these chips were first sold by TI decades ago, they were
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	89 accompanied by a license for the associated firmware to be used together with
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	90 the chips, and we make the argument that because the firmware is a required
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	91 accessory for using the chips and has been so from the beginning, as the
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	92 ownership of our TI-made chips passed down the chain, the license to the
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	93 associated firmware rides along with the physical chips, following the same
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	94 first-sale doctrine.
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	95
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	96 We (FreeCalypso) absolutely do not condone or encourage anyone to use TI's
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	97 firmware without TI-made chips, and we never engage in any such misuse
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	98 ourselves. Anyone who attempts to port TI's firmware to some non-TI chipset
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	99 platform or otherwise use it without TI-made chips will very likely be
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	100 infringing on TI's copyright, as TI had developed the firmware solely for use
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	101 together with their chips, and use without TI-made chips would constitute theft
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	102 of their work. We shall not provide any assistance whatsoever to anyone
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	103 seeking to port the present firmware to a non-TI chipset or to an SDR setup or

8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	105 as doing so would almost certainly go against TI's reasonable rights.

8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	108 chips, in the absence of TI telling us otherwise, we have every good reason to
8c74c177e914 LICENSE: new terms Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 613 diff changeset	109 believe that our manner of using TI's firmware code is fully consistent with
