[Linux-zigbee-devel] Hardware support for 6LoWPAN
Hello! I was looking forward about supported hardwares and I found the wiki page ( http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/linux-zigbee/wiki/HardwareSupport [http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/linux-zigbee/wiki/HardwareSupport] ) about this. In the table of 'Mainline Kernel' AT86RF231 is present. I would like to know whether AT86RF232B is supported? (http://www.atmel.com/devices/AT86RF212B.aspx [http://www.atmel.com/devices/AT86RF212B.aspx]) It is a transceiver and it seems like it supports 6LoWPAN quite good. So my question is AT86RF212B planned to be supported or it is out of the scope? What about MSP430 family from TI and SI1014 from Silicon labs? Another point of view: may I contribute to the IEEE802.15.4 and 6LoWPAN Stack for Linux in the case I have a working implementation for the hardwares mentioned above?

Dear Tamas, Linux-zigbee is not a commercial project, no one pays to developers for their work. There are a couple of enthusiastic engineers who keep project alive by contributing (many thanks to they). But I doubt if somebody has clear development product plan. I guess there is only one reason why you can't contribute Linux, you tried to commit crap several times and kernel janitors banned you. So, please, feel free to send your code to this mail-list.

Re: [Linux-zigbee-devel] Hardware support for 6LoWPAN
Dear Alex, I would like to use this for my undergraduate thesis and my options for hardware are those 3. I'm doing research at the moment, no code was written, yet. My thesis main topic is hardware related and I would like to work with software as less as possible. However, it seems it won't happen. :) Thanks for your comment, anyway ;) Tamas On 2013.08.30. 14:52:18, Alexander Smirnov wrote: Dear Tamas, Linux-zigbee is not a commercial project, no one pays to developers for their work.

As far as I remember rf212, main difference was in channel setup registers. So you would have to: 1) Add a case to switch (lp->part) in at86rf230_probe() function 2) Change at86rf230_channel to differentiate behavior depending on lp->part value (current code works for rf230/1, you need to add code for rf212). As far as I remember this should be enough. >> So my question is AT86RF212B planned to be supported or >> or it is out of the scope? > > As Alexander has hinted, the scope of the project is mainly > determined by what people contribute :-) So please don't forget a patch/questions to this ML, enabling support for additional chips would be easy topic and good contribution. -- With best wishes Dmitry -- Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!
