Hi all,

Resently I deployed the prism54 driver for my embedded board running
uClinux. Whenever I  power on the board The driver is working absolutly
fine, without any problem, but when I do the reset or soft reset, the
wireless interface come up without MAC address and sometime never come up.
firmware loading seems fine.
Only after power on and off  the prism54 wireless driver works fine but not
on reset.
the following is the log messeges i got from the driver..

isl38xx_upload_firmware(0xc2000000, 0xf80000)
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 90
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 80
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 70
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 60
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 50
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 40
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 30
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 20
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 10
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 0
(eth1) has no SIOCGMIIPHY function of ioctl

and the o/p of  ifconfig shows :

# ifconfig eth1
eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
          inet addr:192.168.1.108  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST DEBUG RUNNING NOARP SLAVE  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 iB)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 iB)
          Interrupt:15

Could anybody point where is the problem in my driver? Why only power on/off
bring up the interface ?
why not on reset it works?
ANy suggesion is highly appriciated!!

Thanks & Rgds!!

Umesh

Yes, it was it! Now it works like a charm! :-))

Yes, it says /lib/firmware/.
In the future I'll try to discover myself :-)

Thank you a lot!
