qca9377 wifibt module support on android 11

[zhangjunsheng]

Hi Guys:

     I noticed on imx8mm-evk board, qca9377 wifibt module is supported for android 10 (imx-android-10.0.0_1.0.0.tar.gz) while not supported in android 11(imx-android-11.0.0_2.4.0.tar.gz) or androd 12(imx-android-12.0.0_1.0.0.tar.gz).

     I have a board basing on imx8mm soc and qca9377 wifibt module and would like to bring up the qca9377 wifibt module function under android 11 and android 12.

     I have tried to port qca9377 wifi driver(qcacld-2.0) for android 10 (imx-android-10.0.0_1.0.0.tar.gz) to android 11 (imx-android-11.0.0_2.4.0.tar.gz), but there is a lot of buid errors caused by kernel upgraded. the changes I see so far are related to kernel core such as power management functions, time functions and DMA functions. I abandoned the effort as I see some change are critical and can not find the corresponding usages in new kernel API.

     Can NXP render the support to qca9377 wifibt module in android 11/12 and higher android verson in future? Or where I can get the support from?

Best regards.

Hi @zhangjunsheng,

Could you please check with the vendor if they can provide you with the support for porting over Android 11 or Android 12?

And also, kindly check the Android Vendor HAL Guide for further information.

Thank you.

Best Regards,
Dhruvit.
