good morning

i got the new image from oleg(balbes150) 20200518 RC5Â and some more feedback

with my patch and oleg RC5 hotstart(shutdown now)Â do not work with my box ( wlan goes back to sleep mode always)

with my patch chance 1 of 5 till 1 of 3 that my wlan is up and not sleep from cold start

with oleg chance 1 of 2 till 1of 3 from cold start that wlan is up . (maybe because of phandle order?)

i thing there is maybe a timming problem between wlan dis , sdio data and host wake up wlan .

it could be that GPIOAO_6 is the host wake up wlan ? is it possible to change the activation order for the gpio pins by change it in dts ?

hi martin

i activate your patch ; wlan works ; also with only edit GPIOX_11 wlan
works

its now GPIO-402 out high ACTIVE_LOW ( 3.3V on pin12)
great, thank you for doing the research!

did you find out if GPIOAO_6 is needed at all?
the 3.10 kernel enables it and sets it to HIGH. my understanding is
that you didn't change this one so the output is still LOW.
so I'm wondering if it is needed at all (I wouldn't be surprised if it
was not needed, these 3.10 kernel .dts files seem to be copy&pasted
from various vendors and do not necessarily reflect the actual
hardware setup inside the box)

i also attached the performance infos Wlan0->Router and RAM->SDHC
that's pretty good, great to see that it works fine for you :-)
