babbelal.patel1 · November 18, 2021, 1:45pm

Hi Team,

I am unable to building & loading WFM200SS22XNN3R WiFi driver in Linux kernel 4.9.
I have put three questions Please reply for all questions.

Q1) I have build wfx-linux-driver-master wifi driver on running nano jetson board. I am getting lot of error when load .ko file.
How can resolved it ?

Q3) I have try to static build ?
How can resolved it ?

Thanks,

Rather than looking at all of those individual errors, I’ll ask about the part which usually causes problems: Initial configuration prior to starting the build.

Note: You should always build the kernel Image target before building other targets even if you don’t need the Image. You could build just modules if you’ve propagated configuration with the “make prepare”. I say this because it is an “acid test” of sorts. If you can build “Image”, then you know build correctly propagated all configurations to each component. You’ll also see a number of configuration errors which might block building the Image which might not be as clear when building only modules.

Before you build any kernel you need to have a starting configuration which matches your running system. For a default system the make target of “tegra_defconfig” (described in the docs under kernel customization) creates a configuration which matches the configuration a Jetson ships with, with one exception. If you copy a running system’s “/proc/config.gz”, then gunzip the file and rename it as “.config”, and place it at the correct location, then this will match the running system’s configuration as a starting point (you wouldn’t use both the “/proc/config.gz” and “tegra_defconfig”…you’d use one or the other).

The exception is that you will (either way) need to set “CONFIG_LOCALVERSION”. There is more than one way to set this, but the gist is that it is based on the suffix to the command “uname -r” when run on the system you are configuring for. If for example you see “4.9.140-tegra”, then the suffix is “-tegra”. The config would be something like this:
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="-tegra"

The reason for this is so that the existing kernel Image can find modules at:
/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel
(and modules know they belong at that location)

Once you have this in place you can use your config editor, e.g., menuconfig, and make any change you are interested in.

Note that if you make a change by adding a module, then it is trivial to install a module. If you have to use “=y” to integrate a feature into the kernel, then things get more complicated. Can you elaborate on how you initially configured, and then if you built the “Image” target before any modules (which is the order it should go in)?

Hi ,

I have Cross build the driver in my Linux PC for jetson nano and create .ko file.
But i am getting error when load it in running board.

The above error, combined with this, indicates a bad starting configuration, and perhaps an incorrect install:

This reinforces the probability that configuration or install was not valid:

Below is a long URL with extended information on configuration and install:
https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/problem-smb-jetson-nano/193640/11

In that URL it does offer a “recipe” for native compile, but this would also apply to cross-compile if arguments and environment setup for cross-compile is merged in.

Some tips about cross-compile versus native compile:

Cross-compile uses the “ARCH=arm64”, but never use this for native build.
If you need to know about “uname -r”, then always use the one from the Jetson, not the host PC.
The “CROSS_COMPILE” environment variable is only used for cross-compile…don’t use this in native build, but do add this to each build line for cross-compile.
If you use the “/boot/config.gz”, then this is the one from the Jetson.
In both cases it is a very common mistake to fail to correctly set the “CONFIG_LOCALVERSION” to “-tegra”. This will lead to 100% failure of modules in most cases.

Note that if you just added a module (the “.ko” file), then I would not expect all of the other modules to fail. It is possible that if you added a module which was missing its own chain of dependencies, then this would occur, but I see this, which indicates “wxo.ko” was never added (and thus could not trigger a chain of dependencies):

Look carefully at that URL for how to configure prior to starting the build. Something in the configuration was incomplete before you started the build.

Here is a URL with further explaination related to build and install of kernels:
