Unclear point about wifi_mod_para.conf description

[jun_1]

I Looked at the description of 88w8997 on wifi_mod_para.conf, I found there are SD8997_0 and SD8897_1 which have same contents inside parentheses.

My question is as follows.

If I connect 88w8997 to the host board (I am using 8Mmini EVK), and I run modprobe moal mod_para=nxp/wifi_mod_para.conf, which structure will be applied?

I asked because I need to add a patch file to limit 88w8997 output to one of the structures.

SD9098_0 = {

cfg80211_wext=0xf

max_vir_bss=1

cal_data_cfg=none

ps_mode=1

auto_ds=1

host_mlme=1

fw_name=nxp/sdiouart9098_combo_v1.bin

}

SD9098_1 = {

cfg80211_wext=0xf

max_vir_bss=1

cal_data_cfg=none

ps_mode=1

auto_ds=1

host_mlme=1

fw_name=nxp/sdiouart9098_combo_v1.bin

}

There was a typo in the question text.
The device I am trying to move is 88W9098, not 88W8997.

I was able to resolve the uncertainty while running the actual device, so I will close my question. Thank you for your response.

Hi,

If you are using 88W8997, the driver will get the values from the 8997 structure, not 8897 nor 9098.

For instance, when using 88W8997 driver and fw from tag lf-6.6.3_1.0.0, the following structure will be used.

SD8997 = {
	cfg80211_wext=0xf
	sta_name=wlan
	uap_name=wlan
	wfd_name=p2p
	max_vir_bss=1
	cal_data_cfg=none
	ps_mode=1
	auto_ds=1
	host_mlme=1
	fw_name=sdiouart8997_combo_v4.bin
}

This means you can modify or even delete all the structures that are not for 88W8997, because they won't affect.

Regards,

Daniel.
