But for ti-connectivity/wl127x-fw-5-sr.bin, ti-connectivity/wl127x-fw-5-plt.bin and ti-connectivity/wl128x-fw-5-sr.bin this means the version is now *lower* than before. For ti-connectivity/wl128x-fw-5-plt.bin the version is incremented to end in 2.133, but this is contrary to the commit message. Are some of these firmware images being downgraded? Should the version numbers really end in 2.133 or 0.133? Ben.

The second last value is not incremental, it specifies a project. 0 is the multichannel support project. The driver was changed a while back to take this version structure into consideration. Take a look at this patch: af4e94c wlcore: change way of checking the firmware version I hope this clarifies. -- Cheers, Luca. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

But I think it would be helpful to change that project code to be non-numeric, to avoid such confusion. Ben.

I'll talk with the firmware team to see if they can change the project code, as you suggested. -- Cheers, Luca. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Hi Ben, Here are some updates to our wireless firmwares. Updated the firmwares for WiLink 6 and 7 and added a new version of the firmware for WiLink 8 and a binary configuration file. Also updated the WHENCE file accordingly. Please let me know if there are any more problems.
