Linux/WL1835MOD: Problems with WL18xx System Build Scripts

Steve Appling
Prodigy 50 points
Part Number: WL1835MOD

Tool/software: Linux

I am working with the  Beaglebone Black Wıreless board and believe that I need a newer version of the wpa_supplicant to support the mesh features.  When I run the wpa_supplicant I receive errors such as:

Line 5: unknown global field 'max_peer_links=10'.
Line 5: Invalid configuration line 'max_peer_links=10'.

The wpa_supplicant that is on the current Beaglebone Black Wireless appears to be 2.4.  In another thread, it was suggested that I needed to use >= 2.6 for the mesh options to work.

I am attempting to build a more recent version of the wpa_supplicant, but I'm having issues.

I tried to follow the instructions from here.  On Step 3, when I run "./build_wl18xx.sh init", I get a bunch of "No such file or directory" errors.  I'm using the PROCESSOR-SDK-LINUX-AM335X  05_02_00_10.

I traced the "No such file or directory" error to the ti-processor-sdk-linux-am335x-evm-05.02.00.10/linux-devkit/sysroots/x86_64-arago-linux/usr/bin/git script.  It sets the GIT_EXEC_PATH to ti-processor-sdk-linux-am335x-evm-05.02.00.10/linux-devkit/sysroots/x86_64-arago-linux/usr/bin/../libexec/git-core.  There is, however, no git-core directory in usr/libexec, it only contains subdirectories of awk and gcc.

I'm not able to get a build to run and would appreciate any help.

    Can, you provide the build console log.. Our WiFi expert will review and get back..

    Thanks

    With the original scripts the result was a bunch of "No such file or directory" messages like this:

Wifi Package Build Successful

    I traced the errors down, but don't know how to resolve.  In the biuld_wl18xx.sh script's setup_environment function, the path is changed to prepend TOOLCHAIN_PATH.  Then in the setup_repositories function, it calls git.  This results in calling the git from the toolkit in ~/ti-processor-sdk-linux-am335x-evm-05.02.00.10/linux-devkit/sysroots/x86_64-arago-linux/usr/bin/git.  This is a shell script that sets up the following variables then calls git.real:

    GIT_EXEC_PATH = /home/user/ti-processor-sdk-linux-am335x-evm-05.02.00.10/linux-devkit/sysroots/x86_64-arago-linux/usr/bin/../libexec/git-core

    GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR =/home/user/ti-processor-sdk-linux-am335x-evm-05.02.00.10/linux-devkit/sysroots/x86_64-arago-linux/usr/bin/../share/git-core/templates

    I the "No such file or directory" messages are coming when running git.real because the locations in GIT_EXEC_PATH and GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR do not exist.  If Iook in /home/user/ti-processor-sdk-linux-am335x-evm-05.02.00.10/linux-devkit/sysroots/x86_64-arago-linux/usr/libexec, it does not have git-core.  The GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR is missing too.

    Are these folders supposed to be in the toolkit?

    I found the cause of my troubles. Apparently when I was installing the processor SDK, the VM ran out of disk space. The SDK installed with no errors, but apparently didn't extract all of the files. After re-running the SDK install, all the files are there and the build completes. This resolved my issue.
