Another possibility would be to stay at the netdev level and only use the device's L2 capabilities. For that we probably need some netdev extensions for handling the setup of a WiFi network (e.g., search for networks, join & set credentials, ...). Apart from that, WiFi behaves very similar to ethernet. No need to limit this to GNRC, and moreso, no need to go with the vendor IP stack.

Re: [riot-devel] Support for cc3200
Just few considerations, I hope they are useful I implemented the WLAN support using the Texas Instrument simplelink driver. It is something I never shared because it worked fine for me but it was not a state of the art piece of software, it lacks review and clean up ... My approach was to implements a RIOT module that manages the communication with the cc3200 network wifi processor. Just to render the idea, this is the .h interface module: https://gist.github.com/attdona/b9f2169b4adf5e71e03406b91d4c78e6 Greetings Attilio On Fri, May 19, 2017 at 8:00 AM, Härtinger Markus wrote: > Hi > > We are currently developing an WIFI support in RIOT-OS for the CPU cc3200. > > Our implementation is based on the code of Attilio Donà and the vendor > libraries of Texas Instruments. > > > > After the first hardware support for this CPU currently we try to > implement the WLAN support. > > For this goal we have some questions: > > - Is there already an implementation for any WLAN IEEE-802.11 > CPU in RIOT-OS > > - Is there an IPv4 support or only IPv6 > > - Is it correct that it is only necessary to wirte the > cc3200_netdev.c-File. > > > > Thanks for your help and tips. > > > > > > Best Regards > > > > Markus Härtinger > > > > ___ > devel mailing list > devel@riot-os.org > https://lists.riot-os.org/mailman/listinfo/devel > > ___ devel mailing list devel@riot-os.org https://lists.riot-os.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
