imx6slevk - WL18xx Build Problems

[nigelevans]

Hi,

I have been unable to build the sources to get Wifi working on my evk6sl board due to the follwing errors:

Can anybody shed some light on where the error may be?

Many Thanks.

Hi nigel

I believe special wl18xx scripts for buidling should be used as described below

WL18xx Linux Wireless Architecture - Texas Instruments Wiki

WiLink8 WLAN Demo: Linux - Texas Instruments Wiki

Hi Igor,

Thanks for the links, but they don't seem to have any relevance to compiling the code.

I followed the instructions here to compile, but it fails with the previous stated errors:

WL18xx First Time Getting Started Guide (IMX6) - Texas Instruments Wiki

Best Regards,

Nigel
