Title:
Upgrade Redpine WLAN/BT driver to ver. 1.2 (production release)
Status in HWE Next:
In Progress
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
Upgrade the Redpine WLAN/BT RS9113 driver in Ubuntu Xenial kernel to
ver. 1.2. This version is supposed to be a production release.
This is the latest version of the driver provided by Redpine. For now,
this driver is enabled only on x86, x86_64 architectures. The impact
is restricted to { SDIO_DEVICE(0x041B, 0x9330) } for SDIO based WiFi-
BT modules and on USB bus, this driver binds only to RS9113, lets
upstream kernel driver handle other RSI chipsets.
Fixes since previous release(see lp: #1694607)
Other fixes:
- Redpine vendor driver - Switching to AP mode causes kernel panic (lp:
#1700941)
- ubuntu/rsi driver has several issues as picked up by static analysis (lp:
#1694733)
