We have to support the RF ( wifi and bluetooth ) type approval measurements in other words there has to be a interface where the RF test commands can be executed. In previous project we did use AT and HCI interfaces. Is there any documentation of wifi ( AT or similar )and bluetooth (HCI or similiar ) test commands available?
We are using Colibri iMX6ULL computer module and Yocto
I am installing this driver to our Yocto build, unfortunately I can’t find this file MFG-W8997-MF-LABTOOL-U14-1.1.0.164-A1-16.80.205.p164.zip from NXP
Unfortunately I haven’t been able to download these two files:
SD-WLAN-SD-BT-8997-U16-MMC-W16.68.10.p162-16.26.10.p162-C4X16693_V4-MGPL.zip and MFG-W8997-MF-LABTOOL-U14-1.1.0.164-A1-16.80.205.p164.zip
I believe that these two files are required in building process.
We have the company NDA but still I got this message:
More spesific here is listed the required software packages:
There are two files related to colibri-imx6ull which is our hardware.
SD-WLAN-SD-BT-8997-U16-MMC-W16.68.10.p162-16.26.10.p162-C4X16693_V4-MGPL.zip and MFG-W8997-MF-LABTOOL-U14-1.1.0.164-A1-16.80.205.p164.zip
I really do not know other packages which would be better to use, if there are better software packages available please send those instead… I just need to get this RF test image build up and running in order to get the RF test interface image for RF type approval tests.
1/2 OT. @henrique.tx, I wonder where from this strict “proprietary” term came regarding NXP Wi-Fi driver. Driver source code, which is accessible in linux-toradex tree here has been GPL since quite long ago with headers like this:
* This software file (the File) is distributed by NXP
* under the terms of the GNU General Public License Version 2, June 1991
Then on NXP’s source.codeaurora.org there are several driver versions. lf-5.15.32_2.0.0 is not only proprietary, but as well confidential…, but headers, among the scary confidential lines include these two:
Alternatively, this software may be distributed under the terms of GPL v2.
SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0
Older driver lf-5.15.5_1.0.0 seems being pure GPL. Isn’t it?
Hi, I am just wondering, you should have test image or you should be able to compile the image since you have done testing and this instructions how to built the image.
So if you could send me your already compiled RF test software image for our som module, that is enough and we can start our type approval measurement’s
Other option is to get these driver packages as soon as possible, today would be nice. Deadline for the measurement is approaching…
Same issue for me, registered on NXP, signed NDA, but still no files available.
I’ve opened a support case on NXP (case 00516086) where they pointed me to their CodeAurora driver sources and firmware files. I’m trying to test if those compile OK by modifing the meta-toradex-wifi recipes.
I managed to compile wifi driver (as there is no BT source) and test it with the firmware binary they provided. Unfortunately the binary is an SD_UART version and my module is strapped with SDIO only (iMX6ULL Colibri): with mwifiex vanilla driver and with mlan NXP driver WiFi works fine with newer firmware but BT cannot operate. So I’m stuck as I need concurrent WiFi/BT operation for my final application.
