Subject: Testing IRDA device driver
Hi All,
For the past few days I've been trying to test a driver that I've
written for DICE Fast IrDA controller. As per my requirements, I need to
use IrCOMM as the upper layer.
I'm using the same kernel image on the both the boards. When I run
irattach on either of the boards I can see discovery protocol being
initiated and completing successfully (cat /proc/net/irda/discovery
giving output with other ends's device's MAC address as the daddr) but
I'm struggling to test the driver further.
I've observed that the discovery request/response sequence goes on for 5
minutes. After this, the discovery process stops. On the master side, I
could see no IrLAP frame being sent/received and also the output of cat
/proc/net/irda/discovery is NULL. However, on the slave side, the cat
/proc/net/irda/discovery output shows the master side!!
If I run irattach on the slave side also, no DISCOVERY message is
exchanged and then, the output of slave side also doesn't show anything.
Sometimes, I start getting log "IrLAP, no activity on link!" and then
ircomm_close() API is called from within the stack.
If, I try to run getty on /dev/ircomm0, it does not work!
If I try to transfer data using
echo "1234567890" > /dev/ircomm0
on the master side, and
cat /dev/ircomm0
on the slave side, I can see SNRM command, UA response, RR command,
IrLMP connect/disconnect etc. However, the data transfer actually didn't
happen. I cannot see the string "1234567890" on the slave side.
Please suggest what I'm missing/doing wrong. I need to transfer data
from one device to another to complete the testing. I shall be very much
thankful for suggestions/advice.
Thanks n Regards
Amit Virdi
