Can't build itlwm #20

Closed 1Revenger1 closed 4 years ago

1Revenger1 commented 4 years ago

Issues aren't enabled over there, so hopefully this is fine.

I can't build itlwm without errors due to FwBinary.cpp. It gives me errors with a few lines, specifically...

const unsigned char *[] = {};
const long int *size = sizeof(*);

{IWL_FW("*", *, *_size)};

I for some reason can't remove these lines, as FwBinary will revert back to it's original state whenever I build. The most I can do is remove the file from the itlwm target and instead put fwNumber and FwDesc in another header. This builds fine and loads fine, but for some reason whenever Black80211 tries to attach, it errors out when calling createInterface. Here is the log: black80211.txt

The latest built artifact (and my local copy) also has linking errors on getPHYMode and getFirmwareVersion in itlwm.kext. I had to set them = 0 in Interop.hpp in order to get itlwm.kext to load.

FwBinary is autogenerated from firmware files by fwgen build target. I didn't change anything there. Of course, without the firmware nothing will work. CreateInterface fails because before the firmware is loaded the MAC address can't be retrieved.

I forgot to push some changes in itlwm but pushed Black80211. Now I've pushed them and published a new binary release.

ah, that'd be why the file reverts then, and also explains other issues. Makes sense.

Running fwgen just leaves the file empty though for me. If I pull itlwm from openintelwireless, the file is filled once I run fwgen, so I do wonder what is going on there.

Oh, figured it out. If the repo is buried somewhere where a folder has a space, then it breaks the script. Oops.

Edit: Some quotes around paths should fix that I think.
