Problem in compilation of wifi drivers

[bandarulavanya]

Hi All,

I am trying to compile wl18xx build-utilities with arm-poky-linux-gnueabi- from yocto-1.7 i am facing the below problems, can any one knows how to solve it.

when i am using ./build_wl18xx.sh update R8.6_SP1 i am facing the below errors.

If i given like #define __ARM_PCS_VFP then i am getting errors like below

Hi Lavanya,

Check you set the environment or not?

=>  source setup-environment build

And one more thing, you need to do.

Hello Lavanya,

I haven’t tired the WL188xx but since the driver is provided by the manufacturer I would recommend looking on the software documentation or in the manufacturer’s forums.

There is some information in this community, but it may not help in this specific scenario as it’s not very up-to-date.
