[PATCH 05/13] staging: wfx: load the firmware faster

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

 



From: Jérôme Pouiller <jerome.pouiller@xxxxxxxxxx>

During the loading of the firmware, the WFX_DCA_GET register provide the
number available bytes in the receiving buffer. It is not necessary to
access to the WFX_DCA_GET after sent of each firmware fragment.

This patch allows to send the firmware:
  - in 64ms instead of 130ms using SDIO bus
  - in 78ms instead of 115ms using SPI bus
