I found some time at the weekend hooking it up on my raspberry pi.

The ADF7242 requires an add-on firmware for the automatic IEEE 802.15.4
operating modes. The firmware file is currently made available on the
ADF7242 wiki page here [1]

Just being curious here. Is there any way to get the firmware source
and/or compile your own? Its the first hardware for IEEE 802.15.4 I
have seen that have a special firmware for this which triggers my
curiosity. :)


Unfortunately No - We don't release the firmware assembly code.
Or the required compiler.


Fair enough.



Anyway, this has not that much to do with the driver review here as it
can obviously go in with the binary firmware. We just need to make
sure to also bring the firmware into the linux-firmware repo in time.

There are two firmware zip files listed:
ram_lab_7242_2_0_ieee15dot4_full_r5.zip
<https://wiki.analog.com/_media/resources/tools-software/linux-drivers/networking-mac802154/ram_lab_7242_2_0_ieee15dot4_full_r5.zip>

rom_ram_7242_2_0_ieee15dot4_full_r3.zip
<https://wiki.analog.com/_media/resources/tools-software/linux-drivers/networking-mac802154/rom_ram_7242_2_0_ieee15dot4_full_r3.zip>


Both contain a adf7242_firmware.bin file but also some different data
file. Which one is the correct one here? Some explanation would be helpful.

Please use the latest R5 release file. I'll remove the old one soon.
The older firmware had problems with the back-off exponent randomization.


OK

+Required properties:
+  - compatible:        should be "adi,adf7242"
+  - spi-max-frequency:    maximal bus speed (12.5 MHz)
+  - reg:        the chipselect index
+  - interrupts:        the interrupt generated by the device via pin
IRQ1.
+            IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH (4) or IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING (1)


IRQ1 would be pin7 on the interface connector, right? I'm using this one
but I have trouble when transmitting

Yes IRQ1 is Pin7 on the PMOD connector.


Good, so my wiring was ok.


adf7242 spi32766.0: Error xmit: Retry count exceeded Status=0x3


That's failure NOACK. Is there a node on the same channel/PAN which could response?
reading proc/interrupts should show some interrupts in this case...


Turns out it was a failure on the configuration side of the other node. :/
I had security enabled on the other node and my reset scripts did not catch this. Disabling it and rebooting the node made it work.

Which means I can confirm that IEEE 802.15.4 (wpan-ping) as well as 6LoWPAN (ping6) communication between a at86rf233 and the adf7242 works fine. Nice!
