Series | ath10k: Add support to configure BB timing for external FEM | expand |
Hi you write that "microsemi-lx5586", "sky85703-11" and "sky85803" is supported, but you just check for microsemi-lx5586 in part 3 Am 03.12.2018 um 18:33 schrieb Bhagavathi Perumal S: > This adds new dt entry ext-fem-name, it is used by ath10k driver > to select correct timing parameters and configure it in target wifi hardware. > The Front End Module(FEM) normally includes tx power amplifier(PA) and > rx low noise amplifier(LNA).

"Valid FEM names are >> + "microsemi-lx5586", "sky85703-11" and "sky85803" etc." etc. inidicate you could put whatever here. where does the actual code resides that manages different FEM ?

These are some valid fem names which I added for example. But currently driver support is added only for "microsemi-lx5586", since it required different timing settings for proper DFS radar detection. Others use default settings from firmware if driver doesn't send any settings to firmware. Driver support will be extended in future, if different settings applicable for other fems. I think, I should mention like "Valid FEM names for example: "microsemi-lx5586", "sky85703-11" and "sky85803" etc.". I will change it.

This adds new dt entry ext-fem-name, it is used by ath10k driver to select correct timing parameters and configure it in target wifi hardware. The Front End Module(FEM) normally includes tx power amplifier(PA) and rx low noise amplifier(LNA). The default timing parameters like tx end to PA off timing values were fine tuned for internal FEM used in reference design. And these timing values can not be same if ODM modifies hardware design with different external FEM. This DT entry helps to choose correct timing values in driver if different external FEM hardware used.
