Topic: Freescale P1020 WLAN support???

The content of this topic has been archived on 27 Apr 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

I saw some activity in my google searchs on this topic that took place some time in March of 2012. However, when I get 'trunk' there is no mention of P1020 RDB or WLAN in the file:

target/linux/mpc85xx/image/Makefile

The only 'target' seems to be

mpc8648cds

And the patches-3.3 folder only seems to have patches associated with that platform.

In the linux-3.3.8 kernel hierarchy, there are configurations for the P1020 RDB as well as several other mpc85xx platforms.

The question is... where, if they exist, are the configurations and pataches for the p1020.

I attempted to access:

https://dev.openwrt.org/wiki/GetSource

And I get a '502 Bad Gateway' html error page.

The Freescale supplied 'ltib' package has an ancient kernel version, 2.6.32, and relative to my needs for Atheros support, way out of date.

the mailing list seems to be the best place to find those patches, it doesn't seem that they were included into trunk.

How does one 'apply' these patches. The page on 'patching' refers to a tool called 'quilt' but most of the examples seem to be for setting up the 'patches' in the 'patches' directory...

I've only used 'patch' with diff'd file input...

enter your trunk dir and do

patch -p1 < /pathtopatchfile/patchfile 

for each patch.

The discussion might have continued from here.
