移植wifi，显然必须了解wifi的基础结构，尤其在Android下的结构。

Software Porting

WLAN SW Blocks

The host communicates via SDIO to the WLAN device. On the device side, the WLAN MAC is responsiblefor the 802.11 MAC functions, and conveys WLAN packets from/to the external host to/from the FW.The MAC is responsible for the timing and the time critical decisions only. The PHY performs the 802.11PHY functions of encoding/decoding and modulation/demodulation, and is responsible for the RF functionsof up/down modulation to carrier frequency, filtering and amplification.

Board Initialization file

For each platform there is a board file inside the PSP where the initial board related software bringup is doneThe board file is located inside the linux kernel source tree under “arch/arm/mach-(omap2/davinci)/board-xxxx.cNote:This presentation is mostly based on board_am335x-evm.c located under “arch/arm/mach-omap2”, but similar initilization is needed for every new platform which is connecting to the same type of WiLink module.

hanson@hanson-desktop:~/x210_ics_rtm_v13/kernel/arch/arm/mach-s5pv210$ vim mach-x210.c

Initialization sequence

Inside the am335x-evm board file there is an initialization function called am335x_evm_setup(). This function is called when the Linux kernel boots.

For the standard am335x-evm this function is calling setup_general_purpose_evm() function which sets up all the peripherals that are in use.This function initiates calls to all the initialization functions which are located inside the gen_purp_evm_dev_cfg[] device configuration structure.The functions which are related to the connectivity parts are mmc2_wl12xx_init, uart1_wl12xx_init and wl12xx_init. These functions are descibed below.

MMC initialization

The WLAN subsystem is usually connected using a second MMC port of the host processor. The first MMC is normally used for SD card.

On the Aam335x-evm MMC3 is being used and an init function is provided for initializing this MMC structure data.Before we can use the SDIO pins they need to be muxed in the kernel for SDIO mode.

The SDIO related pin muxes are set in the structure below:

/* Module pin mux for wlan and bluetooth */static struct pinmux_config mmc2_wl12xx_pin_mux[] = {{"gpmc_a1.mmc2_dat0",OMAP_MUX_MODE3 | AM33XX_PIN_INPUT_PULLUP},<br>{"gpmc_a2.mmc2_dat1",OMAP_MUX_MODE3 | AM33XX_PIN_INPUT_PULLUP},{"gpmc_a3.mmc2_dat2",OMAP_MUX_MODE3 | AM33XX_PIN_INPUT_PULLUP},{"gpmc_ben1.mmc2_dat3",OMAP_MUX_MODE3 | AM33XX_PIN_INPUT_PULLUP},{"gpmc_csn3.mmc2_cmd",OMAP_MUX_MODE3 | AM33XX_PIN_INPUT_PULLUP},{"gpmc_clk.mmc2_clk",OMAP_MUX_MODE3 | AM33XX_PIN_INPUT_PULLUP},{NULL, 0},};

The below function is used for setting up this MMC interface. In this function the pin mux structure is being intialized and then the inteface is initilized as a non-removeable card working in 4-Bit mode.

static void mmc2_wl12xx_init(int evm_id, int profile){setup_pin_mux(mmc2_wl12xx_pin_mux);am335x_mmc[1].mmc =3;am335x_mmc[1].name ="wl1271";am335x_mmc[1].caps =MMC_CAP_4_BIT_DATA | MMC_CAP_POWER_OFF_CARD;am335x_mmc[1].nonremovable =true;am335x_mmc[1].gpio_cd =-EINVAL;am335x_mmc[1].gpio_wp =-EINVAL;am335x_mmc[1].ocr_mask =MMC_VDD_32_33 | MMC_VDD_33_34; /* 3V3 *//* mmc will be initialized when mmc0_init is called */return;}

Themmc2_wl12xx_init()function is placed inside the board configuration structure seen below and when it is called during board startup a second mmc interface is created in the kernel (mmc1) which is used for communicating with the WLAN sub-system.

/* General Purpose EVM */static struct evm_dev_cfg gen_purp_evm_dev_cfg[] = {{enable_ecap0,DEV_ON_DGHTR_BRD, (PROFILE_0 | PROFILE_1 | PROFILE_2 | PROFILE_7) },{lcdc_init,DEV_ON_DGHTR_BRD, (PROFILE_0 | PROFILE_1 | PROFILE_2 | PROFILE_7) },......{mmc1_init,DEV_ON_DGHTR_BRD, PROFILE_2},{mmc2_wl12xx_init,DEV_ON_BASEBOARD, (PROFILE_0 | PROFILE_3 | PROFILE_5)},{mmc0_init,DEV_ON_BASEBOARD, (PROFILE_ALL & ~PROFILE_5)},{mmc0_no_cd_init,DEV_ON_BASEBOARD, PROFILE_5},{spi0_init,DEV_ON_DGHTR_BRD, PROFILE_2},{uart1_wl12xx_init,DEV_ON_BASEBOARD, (PROFILE_0 | PROFILE_3 | PROFILE_5)},{wl12xx_init,DEV_ON_BASEBOARD, (PROFILE_0 | PROFILE_3 | PROFILE_5)},......{haptics_init,DEV_ON_DGHTR_BRD, (PROFILE_4)},{NULL, 0, 0},};

GPIO Pins Configuration

In addition to the MMC, UART intefcaes, the WiLink module needs three additional GPIO lines: WLAN Enable (GPIO1_16): Set as an output pinWLAN Irq (GPIO3_17): Set as a GPIO input pinBT/GPS Enable (GPIO3_21): Set as a GPIO output pin with pull-up enabled. The pullup is needed for keeping the chip enabled when system is suspending so we would not need to releoad the firmware after each suspend/resume cycle.

The strucure below is used for setting the muxing of these pins:

static struct pinmux_config wl12xx_pin_mux[] = {{"gpmc_a0.gpio1_16", OMAP_MUX_MODE7 | AM33XX_PIN_OUTPUT},{"mcasp0_ahclkr.gpio3_17", OMAP_MUX_MODE7 | AM33XX_PIN_INPUT},{"mcasp0_ahclkx.gpio3_21", OMAP_MUX_MODE7 | AM33XX_PIN_OUTPUT_PULLUP},{NULL, 0},};
