WL1831MOD: WL1831MODGI

Hi Satya,

In order to use the latest FW on kernel 6.6 you will need some patches to update the wlcore driver as well. Can you try using the patches within the attached tarball and then build your kernel and test again?

Hi Team,

Thanks for the patch shared.

I could integrate those patches into the build, i have loaded the image on the SOM and here are the observations:

-------------------------

I see the interface is detected and also the Firmware is loaded correctly with out any error.

But this time ended up with the scan command. Please let me know the fix for this ASAP.

Main issue: 

wlcore: ERROR 2.4GHz PROBE request template failed
wlcore: down

Hi Satya,

Instead of using "iwlist", do you have "iw"? Do you get the same error with "iw wlan0 scan"?

Also, is this a debian or Yocto/buildroot system?

Hi, 

When used iw wlan0 scan; ended up with the same error.

By the way this is Yocto system built for kernel 6.6.

In parallel, could you please let me know the Firmware version that is latest to 8.9.0.0.246, as it is from R8 release. Any release that could be suggested from R9 release.

I request you to please consider this as a Critical Highest Priority item and help us fix this ASAP. 

Hi Sabeeh, 

This is a Gentle reminder!!!

Could you please provide an update on the issue? As mentioned earlier, we are looking forward to a fix as soon as possible.

Thanks,

Satya.

Hi Satya,

I have just tried myself. I applied the same patches I attached in the tarball above to my linux kernel 6.6 and was able to boot successfully and scan as well. See logs here:

This is the firmware version I am using, which is the latest:

Do you happen to be using the FIPS version of the FW?

Hi Sabeeh,

We are also using the same Firmware, which is the latest. 

Hope you are also using SDIO based WiFi connections; could you also plz share the dts changes as well.

Thanks,

Satya. 

Hi Satya,

There are no changes to the devicetree in order to change the firmware on WL18x. You could share your devicetree for me to review in any case.

Were you able to use the older firmware/kernel fine before requiring to update the wl18xx firmware?

Hi Sabeeh,

1. We have connected the Wifi module over the USB lane and the data is received on the SDIO lines, so this what the dts changes looks like:

2. There was no issue with the older kernel (6.1), we were able to load the driver and also scan the SSID. This issue is only observed with kernel 6.6.

Thanks,

Satya

Hi Satya,

Understood. I believe this is an issue with how SDIO is being used with the 6.6 kernel on your imx9 host. Just as an attempt, can you try removing pinctrl 1,2, and 3, but leave pinctrl-0. And also modify pinctrl-names to the following:

pinctrl-names = "default"; 

Hi Sabeeh,

I have tried the above mentioned work around, but ended up with the same error and it is still blocked.

Could you please help us with the issue- why is it failing to scan the SSID's.

Thanks,

Satya.

Hi Sabeeh, 

I would like to inform you that a call was held with Luke from your organization regarding the WL1835 driver integration, along with another discussion related to a different Wi-Fi driver. Additionally, Luke requested us to share some logs using the gLogger tool from a Windows PC.

Could you please let me know how to install the gLogger tool on Windows 11, and also what commands or details are required to collect the necessary logs? This will help us provide the appropriate information for better debugging.

Thanks,

Satya.

Hi Sabeeh,

I could install the gLogger tool succesfully and also connected with the UART settings and could see connection information as shown in the snapshot attached.

But, the main issue is that we could not take the Debug pin (WL_UART_DBG) out from the existing Board. So looks like the exercise cannot me pulled any more than this.

Could you please suggest any other way to ge the necessary logs.

Hi Team,

I apologize for the subject of this ticket, but the ticket is raised for the WL1837MOD on imx95 with Linux Kernel 6.6.

Thanks,

Satya.

Hi Satya,

Satya Sampath Kumar Pendela said:

But, the main issue is that we could not take the Debug pin (WL_UART_DBG) out from the existing Board.

Just to be clear, you are saying that you do not have access to this DBG pin?

Without the FW logs we can not really confirm, but It looks like there is an issue with the SDIO driver on the imx95 side with kernel 6.6. I would suggest to try with kernel 6.12 or older kernel like 6.1 to see if there are other kernel versions where this issue exists. 

Hi Sabeeh,

We could tapout the WL_UART_DBG pin from the WL1837 module and could get some logs when we tried to execute the scan command: "sudo iw dev wlan0 scan | grep SSID". Please find the screen shot and also the same xl sheet attached below.

Hello Satya,

Good to hear you're able to access the logger pin now. However it seems like there was an issue while taking the logs. Are you using the same firmware (8.9.1.0.2) loaded into the glogger in the parser? Is the baudrate set correctly (3M)? 

Hi Sabeeh, 

I have used - firmware 8.2.0.0.246 both in the device and also in the gLogger tool. Baud rate used is 152000. I will downgrade the firmware to 8.9.1.0.2 and regenerate the logs and share it with you.

Please let me know if any more corrections to be done.

In parallel, could you please share the link for the firmware (8.9.1.0.2) for my reference so that i can make sure that the correct firmware is used.

Thanks,

Satya.

Hi Satya,

Again, please ensure the baudrate is 3000000 (3M). 

Here is the 8.9.1.0.2 FW:
https://git.ti.com/cgit/wilink8-wlan/wl18xx_fw/commit/wl18xx-fw-4.bin?id=685097375c6530c98ce052fcd160001abaa1b256 

Hi Sabeeh,

Thanks for the response with the needed Firmware link.

I have now loaded the firmware (8.9.1.0.2) into gLogger parser and executed the same scan command - "sudo iw dev wlan0 scan | grep SSID" on the terminal and collected the logs from the gLogger tool respectively.

Please find the attachment.

Thanks,

Satya.

Hello Satya,

Thank you for providing this, I can see the logs clearly now. 

I don't see any strange behavior here. At the top of the log the scan is received, executed, and results are returned to the host. But for some reason the host doesn't detect 

Out of curiosity, could you try changing the interrupt type from EDGE_RISING to LEVEL_HIGH? Is this IRQ type supported on imx95? I'm wondering if interrupts are getting missed by the linux host.

Just reviewing some earlier messages, can you further clarify what you meant by this?

Satya Sampath Kumar Pendela said:

We have connected the Wifi module over the USB lane and the data is received on the SDIO lines

In addition to the above, could you try again (with either the EDGE_RISING or LEVEL_HIGH) but enable more debug prints in your kernel log?

You can do this by setting wl12xx_debug_level to "DEBUG_ALL": this value is set here in link below:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/tree/drivers/net/wireless/ti/wlcore/main.c?h=linux-6.6.y#n6780 

What I'm looking for is a reason the driver stops communicating with the chip and requires FW reset.

This is the expectation from the HW team over the schematics. So the intension was to get the wifi data over sdio lines. This is the calrity for the dts changes made.

Hi Satya,

Understood. Please let me know if you can provide the debug logs and try the DTS changes I've mentioned above. 

Hi Sabeeh,

Even in the initial changes, it is set as EDGE_RISING only as shown below:

----------------

&usdhc2 {
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_usdhc2>, <&pinctrl_usdhc2_gpio>;
//pinctrl-1 = <&pinctrl_usdhc2_100mhz>, <&pinctrl_usdhc2_gpio>;
//pinctrl-2 = <&pinctrl_usdhc2_200mhz>, <&pinctrl_usdhc2_gpio>;
//pinctrl-3 = <&pinctrl_usdhc2>, <&pinctrl_usdhc2_gpio>;
//cd-gpios = <&gpio3 00 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
//fsl,cd-gpio-wakeup-disable;
vmmc-supply = <&wlan_en_reg>;

wlcore: wlcore@0 {
compatible = "ti,wl1835";
reg = <2>;
interrupt-parent = <&gpio3>;
interrupts = <7 IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_RISING>;
};
};

--------------

Could you please let me know any other things to be done.

Regarding the wl12xx_debug_level to "DEBUG_ALL"; i will update you with the logs.

Thanks,

Satya.

Hi Satya,

I believe I am able to see a similar issue as to what you are reporting. I booted up my imx93 board with a wl18xx device and see something similar:

Let me try to investigate further and I will report back.

Hi Satya,

When I look at my TI MPU platforms, I clearly see the interrupt handler getting called from the kernel logs:

[  132.831260] wlcore: IRQ work
[  132.831263] wlcore: wakeup time: 12 ms
[  132.838051] wlcore: intr: 0x20 (fw_rx_counter = 0, drv_rx_counter = 0, tx_results_counter = 0)
[  132.846673] wlcore: WL1271_ACX_INTR_HW_AVAILABLE
[  132.913816] wlcore: chip to elp

However I don't see similar logs in my i.mx93 setup. So this is clearly the issue. I'm still investigating why this IRQ routine isn't getting triggered however. 

Hi Satya,

Could you try changing the interrupt type from EDGE_RISING to LEVEL_HIGH?
