Hi everyone,
we are trying to bring up the wlan on a custom i.mx6ul based board equipped with TI Wilink module WL1807MODGIMOCR.
we are using the SDK version 8.6_SP1 for wl18xx driver and firmware.
currently the state is that we are able to bring the wlan up when we boot the board using the usb ethernet dongle but when the board is booted with either usb mass storage or micro sd card the it fails we received the message "ERROR firmware boot failed despite 3 retries"
Following are the device tree nodes.
/ {
regulators {
compatible = "simple-bus";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
wlan_en: fixedregulator@100 {
compatible = "regulator-fixed";
regulator-name = "wlan_en";
regulator-min-microvolt = <3300000>;
regulator-max-microvolt = <3300000>;
gpio = <&gpio1 8 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
startup-delay-us = <70000>;
};
};
};
&iomuxc {

};

};
};
Following are the boot logs with both successful and unsuccessful wlan init.
