JODY-W2 UAP0 HOSTAPD FAIL

elton — Fri, 27 Dec 2024 03:30:14 GMT

Good day!

I am currently developing with below configuration.

SOM: Toradex Colibri i.MX6ULL 512MB IT
OS: Yocto (kirkstone)
Kernel: 6.1.22
WiFi Module: JODY-W2 88W8987
Driver: lf-6.1.22_2.0.0

We experience some problems during boot-up where uap0 is not configured properly - IP address is not set. When comparing the journal logs of successful/failed boot-up, we found out that during a failed boot, below debug messages are shown.

uap0: Skip change virtual intf type on uap: from 3 to 2
uap0: Skip change virtual intf type on uap: from 2 to 3

We already checked the driver's source code and it is executed when changing virtual interface types. Below is a snippet of moal_cfg80211.c.

if ((priv->bss_type == MLAN_BSS_TYPE_UAP) && (priv->bss_index > 0)) {
PRINTM(MMSG,
"%s: Skip change virtual intf type on uap: from %d to %d\n",
dev->name, priv->wdev->iftype, type);
priv->wdev->iftype = type;
goto done;
}

Can anyone explain why and what triggers the function call?

Regards,

Elton
