Hi, Seems that we have different hardware, so the first question is first the most interesting thing: how much does the hw actually differ, especially do they require different device trees? Can you provide me a photo of your hardware? Or is it a Shine 3?

It uses the brcmfmac driver on mainline and the . bcmdhd in the vendor kernel Output on the vendor kernel: bcmsdh_register: Linux Kernel SDIO/MMC Driver [bcm_wlan_get_oob_irq-43] gpio 127, irq 383 dhd_conf_set_hw_oob_intr: Enable HW OOB for 43362 F1 signature OK, socitype:0x1 chip:0xa962 rev:0x1 pkg:0x9 DHD: dongle ram size is set to 245760(orig 245760) at 0x0 dhdsdio_probe: Disable prop_txstatus dhd_conf_set_fw_name_by_chip: firmware_path=/system/lib/firmware/wc121/fw_bcm40181a2.bin wl_create_event_handler(): thread:wl_event_handler:92d started tsk Enter, tsk = 0xdb501304 p2p0: P2P Interface Registered dhd_attach(): thread:dhd_watchdog_thread:932 started dhd_attach(): thread:dhd_dpc:933 started dhd_attach(): thread:dhd_sysioc:934 started On mainline: [ 11.686469] brcmfmac: brcmf_fw_alloc_request: using brcm/brcmfmac43362-sdio for chip BCM43362/1 [ 12.282783] brcmfmac: brcmf_fw_alloc_request: using brcm/brcmfmac43362-sdio for chip BCM43362/1 [ 12.387000] brcmfmac: brcmf_c_process_clm_blob: no clm_blob available (err=-11), device may have limited channels available [ 12.479403] brcmfmac: brcmf_c_preinit_dcmds: Firmware: BCM43362/1 wl0: May 16 2018 23:42:49 version 5.90.244 FWID 01-0 > I guess the SDIO setup can deal with different chips (like Broadcom vs. > Realtek) as long as the board has been designed to always use the same > reset/power/etc. lines.

The question is just how much our devices differ. Regards, Andreas
