[Madwifi-users] MADWIFI Port to ecos mips-be-32 platform with Atheros5212-2413 based Atheros chipset

[Rajesh K. S, N. <s.r...@hc...>]

Hi,

    I am trying to port the atheros HAL for device Atheros5212 - 2413,
on ECOS + mips-be-32 platform.	I am able to attach the hal successfully
with the device, refer function _ath_hal_attach in if_ath.c, and proceed
on to rest of the initialization until the point when the hardware
transmit queues are setup. I am getting error "unable to setup a beacon
xmit queue!" when invoking ath_beaconq_setup.=20

	I will appreciate if some pointers can be provided to resolve
the given issue.

	Also note that I have not setup DMA in "ath_desc_alloc" till
this point of time, as, I understand the same is not required at this
point of time and would be required to be set up before the actual
transmission. However, could that be a cause for the problem currently
faced by me. I have not setup the DMA as I am facing some issues setting
up the DMA on the given ecos platform. Is there an alternate to set up
the transmit buffers if the DMA is not available.
