Kernel panic with BCM4322 and 3.10.0-693.2.2.el7.x86_64

Hello all

I just executed an upgrade to 3.10.0-693.2.2.el7.x86_64, and my BCM4322 causes a kernel panic.

I followed instructions to generate a RPM from here: https://elrepo.org/tiki/wl-kmod which worked in the past.

0c:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Limited BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller (rev 01)

Any ideas on how to get the BCM4322 working on the latest kernel?

Thanks

Just to be clear, you rebuilt it for the current kernel?
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

Hello

Yes, I rebuilt for the new kernel, and that's when the problem started

An updated version of kmod-wl is now available for testing. Please see https://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=782 for details.
