* wil6210: boot loaderVladimir Kondratiev2015-02-271-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce boot loader. Instead of the operational firmware, very small boot loader is burned to the on-board flash. Boot loader initializes hardware upon reset, and prepares for low power mode. Boot loader reports MAC address and detects radio chip connected. Driver loads firmware only when bringing up interface. All information required to set up network interface, most important is MAC address, reported by the boot loader The firmware composed of 2 files: - wil6210.fw - firmware itself (compiled code + data) - wil6210.board - board file (various board and radio dependent calibrations and parameters) Signed-off-by: Vladimir Kondratiev <qca_vkondrat@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>
* wil6210: remove wil_to_pcie_dev()Vladimir Kondratiev2014-12-011-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There is no need to obtain physical device through wil->pdev->dev path, as it is done by this macro. The same device already stored as wiphy's device, thus wil_to_dev() returns the same device as wil_to_pcie_dev() Remove unnecessary macros, this allows to drop dependency by pci.h in the firmware download code.

* wil6210: firmware downloadVladimir Kondratiev2014-09-111-0/+45
Firmware download implemented but is still experimental feature; flag controlling it added, no_fw_load. It is true by default, use no_fw_load=N to activate feature. Reset flows also got some adjustment for the fw download to work Signed-off-by: Vladimir Kondratiev <qca_vkondrat@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
