Hi ,
I have my custom board that is close to beaglebone rev A3 , I'm trying to get WLAN working on this system. The host processor talks to the WL1271 chip over an SDIO interface , i I've configured the pin mux according to my board.
I've recompiled the ti-sdk kernel, and I've compile the modules as built in also as modules in my fileystem wl12xx.ko, mac80211.ko, cfg80211.ko, rfkill.ko.
I have installed wl12xx firmware in /lib/firmware/ti-connectivity folder in filesystem.
when i am inserting my modules by using command
modprobe wl12xx_sdio.ko
i got the following logs after doing dmesg

modules got inserted without any error but dmesg is not showing any insertion...
and when i did lsmod showing me
Module Size Used by
wl12xx_sdio 4612 0
wl12xx 160111 1 wl12xx_sdio
mac80211 172459 1 wl12xx
cfg80211 155658 2 wl12xx,mac80211
my ifconfig not showing me wlan0....i have some questions
who is fetching the firmware?kernel or driver...? my firmware is getting installled or not?
if driver getting insert without error then why my ifconfig not showing me wlan0 device.
is there any thing i am missing here?
