WLAN Development Guidelines

The WLAN driver is developed based on the HDF and PAL. It provides a unified driver model for WLAN modules of different vendors regardless of the operating system (OS) and system on a chip (SoC).

Limitations and Constraints

None

How to Develop

1. Configure hardware parameters such as module (different features) and chip in the wifi_config.hcs file.
2. Parse the wifi_config.hcs file and generate a structure with the configured parameters.
3. Initialize and create a module.
4. Mount and initialize the chip.
5. Initialize the bus.
6. Mount the upper-layer WPA service.

NOTE: Some of the above adaptation steps have been provided. For details, see the third part Development Example. The steps waiting to be performed by developers include modifying configuration parameters based on hardware parameters, adapting and mounting a module, and performing tests and verification.
