Hi,
I am trying to get a SD8887 based SDIO card to work with my Renesas H3
Salvator-X board. The card is either a u-blox emmy-w1-evk or a ZComax AC-180M,
I am evaluating both. I really prefer to run the upstream driver instead of the
paperwork protected and surprisingly old custom ones.
However, for both cards, I run into an error I cannot parse:
[ 4.028588] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: mwifiex_process_cmdresp: cmd 0x242 failed during initialization
I use a v4.9-rc2 based tree called 'renesas-drives' [1] which has a few Renesas
specific patches on top but nothing mwifiex related AFAICT. I use the firmware from
the linux-firmware tree.
Any further use of the interface mlan0 or reading eeprom via debugfs will result in a timeout.
[ 18.146710] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: mwifiex_cmd_timeout_func: Timeout cmd id = 0x10, act = 0x1
I assume this is a follow-up problem so I skip the logs for these timeouts (can
easily send them, of course, in case they are interesting). I'll attach a full
debug output from mwifiex from insertion until the initial 0x242 error.
For full disclaimer, I am the maintainer of the underlying Renesas SD driver
and I want to use this setup to create a test scenario for SDIO with UHS
speeds. So, if there is something wrong in the SD part, I'll happily hack on
that.
But for now, I simply would need a starting point :) 0x242 is
"HostCmd_CMD_CHAN_REGION_CFG". Could this mean it cannot load configuration
data? I did search around but couldn't find anything useful.
Thanks,
Wolfram

Is the same true for 0x10f?
mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: CMD_RESP: cmd 0x10f error, result=0x2
Otherwise I can connect to the network and run performance tests now.

0x242 command failure is expected for sd8887, as It's not supported. Driver shouldn't abort initialization in this case. You can try below change. I will prepare a patch to send this command based on firmware version/capability.

Thanks for the heads up. If you CC me on the patch, I'll happily ack it.
Meanwhile, I nailed my problem down to some SDIO IRQ delivery issue.
Thanks again.

Yes. Error code 2 here means command not supported by firmware.

Error code 2 from firmware is unsupported command. You can ignore this and earlier
error seen for 0x242 command. They aren't harmful.

Hi All,
I'm also using sd8887 and I'm trying to make it work in adhoc mode and
encrypt the channel with wpa-none, but I got some trouble.
If I make the same specific test with from the driver from marvel
intranet, is working (maybe because the firmware is more recent ?) but
anyway the general stability with the driver is poor, I get frequent
kernel crash, I see at [1] that this driver is based on android and
I've personally to admit that mwifiex driver solved the stability side
but unfortunately introduce a regression on wpa-none.
With mwifiex backport driver of Linux 4.1 is not working, I mean the
link seems to be established always even when the password is wrong.
I saw on older thread on linux wireless with similar issue but more
related to fix ibss-rns, but with my test ibss-rns never worked with
mwifiex as with intranet one, so I think will be more important fix
the regression with wpa-none.
