you also need to set _always_ the default phy value after reset in the
wpan_phy struct.
Example:
/* sets default transmit_power */
foobar->hw->phy->transmit_power = 4;
otherwise the phy layer doesn't know the initial txpower. In cc2520
there is also a missing initial value for the CCA mode. There must be
running some CCA mode which also stands in the datasheet (I doesn't
looked into that now).
Example:
foobar->hw->phy->cca.mode = NL802154_CCA_ENERGY_CARRIER;
btw:
We have also there a lack of support because this describes energy
above threshold. Currently we have not implemented to get this threshold
from the phy. (We also need support for that, in case of at86rf230 the
default value is used).
