Hi, You are using a very old driver if it throws an error of FW 8.9.*.*.58. There were two major driver updates since then, one for the WPA3 support and the other for a major issue we had with a PN drift. Bottom line, to take the latest FW, you would also need to implement all the driver patches. You can find those under https://git.ti.com/cgit/wilink8-wlan/build-utilites/log/?h=r8.9 Regards, Shlomi -----Original Message----- From: Fabio Estevam <festevam@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, February 29, 2024 1:32 PM To: Itzhak, Shlomi <shlomii@xxxxxx>; saurabhnarang@xxxxxx; Mishol, Guy <guym@xxxxxx>; Menon, Nishanth <nm@xxxxxx> Cc: linux-wireless <linux-wireless@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: wl18xx: Error when using the latest firmware Hi, I am running kernel 6.6.18 on an imx6dl board with the WL18XX Wifi chip. I tried using the most recent firmware (8.9.1.0.2) from the master branch of: https://git.ti.com/cgit/wilink8-wlan/wl18xx_fw/log/ but the following error is seen: wlcore: ERROR Your WiFi FW version (8.9.1.0.2) is invalid. Please use at least FW 8.9.*.*.58. Then I used FW 8.9.0.0.90 and this version is accepted. Should drivers/net/wireless/ti/wlcore/boot.c b be changed to allow running the latest 8.9.1.0.2? What is the recommended wl18xx firmware version when running a mainline kernel? Any suggestions? Thanks, Fabio Estevam
