Re: Droid 4 WiFi firmware loading error

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

WTF :(

Right now the BT driver and the WiFi driver are no aware of
each other. Actually the kernel is not even aware, that both
drivers are using the same chip. Unfortunately this will be
tricky to solve properly. Since a system may have two WiLink
devices, the only solution coming to my mind would be adding
a link from the BT device to the WiFi device in device tree.
Additionally we would need something in the WiLink driver to
check if driver has been initialized properly for a given DT
node.
