Re: iwlwifi: ToF usage

Including some people I've seen mentioned in ToF-related e-mails...

This is what I've tried:


-- Responder --

* hostapd running, hostapd.conf:
	driver=nl80211
	interface=wlan1
	hw_mode=g
	channel=1
	wmm_enabled=1
	ssid=tof_test
	ftm_responder=1
	ftm_initiator=1

$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/iwlwifi/0000:06:00.0/iwlmvm/netdev:wlan1
$ echo channel_num=1 > tof_responder_params
$ echo bssid=bb:bb:bb:bb:bb:bb > tof_responder_params
$ echo rate=1 > tof_responder_params
$ echo ftm_per_burst=5 > tof_responder_params

$ echo send_responder_cfg=1 > tof_responder_params


-- Initiator --

$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/iwlwifi/0000:06:00.0/iwlmvm/netdev:wlan1
$ echo send_tof_cfg=1 > tof_enable
$ echo 'num_of_ap=1' > tof_range_request
$ echo 'ap=0 1 0 0 bb:bb:bb:bb:bb:bb 0 10 0 5 5 0 0 0 0 -40' \
	> tof_range_request

$ echo 'send_range_request=1' > tof_range_request

$ cat tof_range_response
request_id = 0
status = 2
last_in_batch = 1
num_of_aps = 0



(bb:bb:bb:bb:bb:bb is the responder's BSSID)

Am I even close? Fumbling in the dark here.

The 'status = 2' from tof_range_response comes directly from the FW, AFAICT. What do different values mean?


Cheers,
Joel

Hi,

Starting to play around with the FTM/ToF support in iwlwifi, but documentation is (understandably) scarce at this point. Using a pair of 8260:s I had lying around.

Can someone give me some hints on how to work the debugfs API for a successful measurement?

I've set up one card as AP with hostapd (with ftm_responder=1 and ftm_initiator=1 in hostapd.conf), the other as a STA.

From the STA, I've played with 'tof_range_request' in debugfs. Writing send_range_request=1, which it doesn't choke on or anything, but nothing seems to happen. Guess I need to set things up a bit first, but how?

If it's possible to get this to work at all at this stage, some hints on how to do it would be great.


Thanks,
Joel
