Regarding wlan0 not showing in ifconfig for imx8m mini evk

Hello team,

 

I am having imx8m mini evaluation board. I downloaded Linux pre built image L5.15.52_2.1.0_MX8MM and found imx-image-full-imx8mmevk.wic file in it. Then, I created SD card using command  "sudo dd if=imx-image-full-imx8mmevk.wic of=/dev/sdb bs=1M && sync" and booted imx8m mini evk with sdcard.

 

After successful boot, I observed that wlan0 or mlan0 is not showing in command "ifconfig -a". Also I tried to see if wlan0 driver is loaded or not using "dmesg | grep wlan" but it was not found. So, I tried manually to load driver using command "modprobe moal mod_para=nxp/wifi_mod_para.conf" output for this command is as below :

[ 1830.135808] mlan: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel.
[ 1830.177972] wlan: Loading MWLAN driver
[ 1830.182738] wlan: Register to Bus Driver...
[ 1830.187112] wlan: Register to Bus Driver Done
[ 1830.191555] wlan: Driver loaded successfully

 

Then also "ifconfig -a" is not showing anything related to wifi.

 

So, is there anything else need to be done for bringing up on chip wifi for imx8m mini evaluation board.

 

Regards,

Yash Takwani

I was using 8MMINILPD4-CPU revision in which there was Murata's Qualcom based chip. Due to this I moved to zeus 5.4 version and then able to see wlan0 in "ifconfig -a".
