Hello Francois,

Francois WIBAUX said:

So, what are exactly the hardware and software versions, please?

I'm not sure I follow the question, can you please what is you require?

Francois WIBAUX said:

wlcore : wl18xx  HW : 183x or 180x, PG 2.2 (ROM 0x11)

This is the hardware version of the device.

Francois WIBAUX said:

wlcore: firmware booted (Rev 8.9.1.0.2)

This line describes the firmware version being used, which is the latest. This is the 'wl18xx-fw-4.bin'

Francois WIBAUX said:

wlcore: PHY firmware version: Rev 8.2.0.0.246

This PHY version gets packaged into the above firmware binary.

I'm using this SOM from ariscite:
  https://variscite.com/system-on-module-som/i-mx-6/var-som-solo-dual/

running Linux Yocto Scarthgap with TI driver for wl18xx.

I need these informations:

- Hardware release number for the TI wireless component

- Software release number for the driver

- Firmware release number 

I only have information from messages when linux is booting.
And I need to understand theses messages to answer previous questions.

So with messages displayed by kernel linux, could you help me to answer?

Thank you for your help.

Hi Francois.

Yes, understood.

It is indeed PG 2.2.

- Software release number for the driver

If you are using scarthgap, then we don't have a driver version because it has been upstreamed into linux kernel. You must use linux kernel version instead.
