I received the following and could use some help. Do we need kernel 4.19 or later?
We have a WiLink8 Linux product we were attempting to get through the SVD testing and are having some failures. Our software is currently at the following:
Kernel drivers: We are at based on ti-lsk-linux-4.4.y (https://git.ti.com/cgit/ti-linux-kernel/ti-linux-kernel)
- WiFi Firmware: 8.9.0.0.88 (git://git.ti.com/wilink8-wlan/wl18xx_fw bda5304cc86e9c4029f8101394d2a8b39c640f53)
- WPA Supplicant: R8.8 (git://git.ti.com/wilink8-wlan/hostap c0d9b775e285e0a5ad3c4b7cfe2c5ad7f5adb319)
We recently received an updated firmware to account for a Bluetooth Classic / Wi-Fi coexistence issue, and I’m assuming that firmware had support for the SVD issues since those were patched so long ago.
My current speculation is that there is something in the kernel drivers which are required to pass the testing. 4.4.y was a while ago. But after cloning that repo I am unable to see any files. Git is complaining about some missing files so maybe the git repo is currently broken?
D:\mypath\ti-linux-kernel>git checkout ti-linux-4.4.y
error: invalid path 'drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/i2c/aux.c'
error: invalid path 'drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/i2c/aux.h'
Anyways, I was wondering if you could verify that the supplicant and firmware do indeed have patches for SVD and whether or not the kernel drivers need an update? Without being able to see that repo I’m unable to help out the team much.
