Hello everyone.

----------------------------------------

kernel 3.14.52

i.MX6dl sabresd board

Ubuntu 14.04

YOCTO

----------------------------------------

I want to set wifi card on my board(i.mx6dl sabresd).

wifi card driver is ath10k(it is device of Atheros)

In my case set like below..

1. menuconfig set.

check [*]

Bus support -> PCI support,

Message Signaled Interrupts(MSi...MSI-x)

PCI Express port BUS support

PCI host controller drivers -> Freescale i.MX6 PCIe controller .

Device Driver -> Network device support --> Wireless LAN ->

Atheros Wireless Cards -> Atheros 802.11ac wireless cards support -> Atheros ath10k PCI support ..done.

2. package set

$build/conf/local.conf

Add text for wifi install like below...

IMAGE_INSTALL_append += " iw wpa-supplicant net-tools ethtool pciutils \
modutils-initscripts i2c-tools wireless-tools kernel-modules"

3. Compile and mount to target board(i.mx6dl sabresd)

4. copy firmware

cp firmware-2.bin_10.1.467.2-1 /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA988X/hw2.0/firmware-2.bin

and reboot.

But can not work wifi card.

Attached is the Linux 3.14.28 BSP Linux Reference Manual. Please read the Chapter 48 for the AR6003 Wifi driver details.

I think you can try to use Linux 3.14.28 BSP. You can download it here :

Hello jummychan.

Thank you for your reply.

But, In my case wifi card is PCIe type.it is different with AR6003.

I want confirm set configuration on YOCTO system for wifi card install.

Thank you.
