经过一周多的奋战，终于把WiFi成功的移植到了android2.3,我的硬件平台是s3c6410处理器, android2.3的无线设置中 成功检测到无线网络，且连接到无线路由，可以使用自带的浏览器上网，祝贺一下，下面把移植过程给大家分享，免得大家走弯路。
先给大家推荐外国朋友写的一篇博客，我发现国内的软件研发人员好多都是翻译这篇文章，我给大家推荐看原版的，因为有的人翻译过来，可能误解了作者的原意，且原文章下面的讨论也非常的有意义，也是需要看看的，博客地址 http://blog.linuxconsulting.ro/2010/04/porting-wifi-drivers-to-android.html，国内用户直接打不开该网站，需要翻墙，

Porting WiFi drivers to Android
Update (11/08/2010): Updated patch to fix the loading of awext driver at run time.
Added STOP and RESTART commands.
For mini-box.com picoPC we want to support several USB and miniPCI WiFi dongles, this guide provides a step by step explanation of what's involved in adding a new wifi driver and making wifi work in a custom Android build (this guide was written for android 2.1 but should be applicable to previous android releases and hopefully future releases).
Contents
0. Understand how Android WiFi works.
1. Enable building of wpa_supplicant in your BoardConfig.mk
2. (Optional) Enable debug for wpa_supplicant.
3. Provide a proper wpa_supplicant.conf for your device
4. Have the correct paths and permissions created from init.rc
5. Make sure your wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd (optional) are starting from init.rc
6. Provide your driver either as a module or built in kernel and proper kernel support for it and modify Android source code accordingly.
7. Provide a firmware if your module needs it.
8. Make your driver work with Android custom wpa_supplicant commands and SIOCSIWPRIV ioctl
Now onto details.
0. Understand how Android WiFi works.
Android uses a modified wpa_supplicant ( external/wpa_supplicant ) daemon for wifi support which is controlled through a socket by hardware/libhardware_legacy/wifi/wifi.c (WiFiHW) that gets controlled from Android UI through android.net.wifi package from frameworks/base/wifi/java/android/net/wifi/and it's corresponding jni implementation in frameworks/base/core/jni/android_net_wifi_Wifi.cppHigher level network management is done in frameworks/base/core/java/android/net
1. Enable building of wpa_supplicant in your BoardConfig.mk
This is by simply adding: BOARD_WPA_SUPPLICANT_DRIVER := WEXT to your BoardConfig.mk . This will set WPA_BUILD_SUPPLICANT to true in external/wpa_supplicant/Android.mk enabling building ofdriver_wext.c
If you have a custom wpa_supplicant driver (like madwifi or my custom android private commands emulation - see last paragraph) you can replace WEXT with AWEXT or your driver name (MADWIFI, PRISM etc).
2. (Optional) Enable debug for wpa_supplicant.
By default wpa_supplicant is set to MSG_INFO that doesn't tell much.
To enable more messages:
2.1 modify common.c and set wpa_debug_level = MSG_DEBUG
2.2 modify common.h and change #define wpa_printf from if ((level) >= MSG_INFO) to if ((level) >= MSG_DEBUG)
3. Provide a proper wpa_supplicant.conf for your device
Providing a wpa_supplicant.conf it's important because the control socket for android is specified in this file (ctrl_interface= ). This file should be copied by your AndroidBoard.mk to $(TARGET_OUT_ETC)/wifi(usually /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf ). This location will be used on wpa_supplicant service from init.rc.
There are two different ways in which wpa_supplicant can be configured, one is to use a "private" socket in android namespace, created by socket_local_client_connect() function in wpa_ctrl.c and another is by using a standard unix socket.
Minimum required config options in wpa_supplicant.conf :
- Android private socket
ctrl_interface=wlan0
update_config=1
- Unix standard socket
ctrl_interface=DIR=/data/system/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wifi
update_config=1
Depending on your driver you might also want to add:
ap_scan=1
If you have AP association problems with should change to ap_scan=0 to let the driver do the association instead of wpa_supplicant.
If you want to let wpa_supplicant connect to non-WPA or open wireless networks (by default it skips these kind) add:
network={
key_mgmt=NONE
}
4. Have the correct permissions and paths created from init.rc
Incorrect permisions will result in wpa_supplicant not being able to create/open the control socket andlibhardware_legacy/wifi/wifi.c won't connect.
Since Google modified wpa_supplicant to run as wifi user/group the directory structure and file ownership should belong to wifi user/group (see os_program_init() function in wpa_supplicant/os_unix.c ).
Otherwise errors like:
E/WifiHW ( ): Unable to open connection to supplicant on "/data/system/wpa_supplicant/wlan0": No such file or directory will appear.
Also wpa_supplicant.conf should belong to wifi user/group because wpa_supplicant will want to modify this file. If your system has /system as read-only use a location like /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf and modify wpa_supplicant service in init.rc with new location.
Make sure the paths are correctly created in init.rc:
mkdir /system/etc/wifi 0770 wifi wifi
chmod 0770 /system/etc/wifi
chmod 0660 /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
chown wifi wifi /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
#wpa_supplicant control socket for android wifi.c (android private socket)
mkdir /data/misc/wifi 0770 wifi wifi
mkdir /data/misc/wifi/sockets 0770 wifi wifi
chmod 0770 /data/misc/wifi
chmod 0660 /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
chown wifi wifi /data/misc/wifi
chown wifi wifi /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
If you use a Unix standard socket in wpa_supplicant.conf (see above) add:
# wpa_supplicant socket (unix socket mode)
mkdir /data/system/wpa_supplicant 0771 wifi wifi
chmod 0771 /data/system/wpa_supplicant
chown wifi wifi /data/system/wpa_supplicant
Do not add these if you use Android private socket because it will make wpa_supplicant non-functional, becausehardware/libhardware_legacy/wifi/wifi.c check for existence of the/data/system/wpa_supplicant folder and will pass a wrong interface name to wpa_ctrl_open()function.
5. Make sure your wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd are starting from init.rc
For wpa_supplicant the init.rc startup like should be depending on which path you chosen:
- Android private socket:
service wpa_supplicant /system/bin/wpa_supplicant -dd -Dwext -iwlan0 -c /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
socket wpa_wlan0 dgram 660 wifi wifi
group system wifi inet
disabled
oneshot
- Unix standard socket:
service wpa_supplicant /system/bin/wpa_supplicant -dd -Dwext -iwlan0 -c /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
group system wifi inet
disabled
oneshot
If your wifi driver creates a wifi interface with other name than wlan0 you will have to modify the above line accordingly.
You also should have dhcpcd starting from init.rc
service dhcpcd /system/bin/dhcpcd wlan0
group system dhcp
disabled
oneshot
6. Provide your driver either as a module or built in kernel and proper kernel support for it.
First make sure that CONFIG_PACKET and CONFIG_NET_RADIO (wireless extensions) are enabled in your kernel. The driver can be built as module (default android way) or built in kernel (if you want to rely in kernel auto probing to support multiple driver eg. USB wifi) but will require source code modifications (see below).
- As kernel module:
Define in your BoardConfig.mk :
1. WIFI_DRIVER_MODULE_PATH := path to the module to be loaded
You need to specify module name in that path too, usually should look something like /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko
2. WIFI_DRIVER_MODULE_NAME:= the name of the network interface that the driver creates, for example wlan0
3. WIFI_DRIVER_MODULE_ARG:= any arguments that you want to pass to the driver on insmod, for example nohwcrypt
Make sure you copy your kernel module when building android to the correct location.
- As built in kernel:
- First init.rc needs to be modified to inform hardware/libhardware_legacy/wifi/wifi.c about the name of the interface, that the driver is already loaded and set the status of wpa_supplicant to running:
setprop wifi.interface "wlan0"
setprop wlan.driver.status "ok"
Do NOT add setprop init.svc.wpa_supplicant "running" as I previously mentioned as it will prevent wpa_supplicant from starting from init.
- Secondly hardware/libhardware_legacy/wifi/wifi.c need to be modified so the functions insmod()and rmmod() return 0 (simply add return 0; as the first line in functions since they are not needed when driver is built in kernel) and return before checking for /proc/modules in check_driver_loaded()function.
You might encounter problems with WifiHW module not being able to connect to wpa_supplicant socket even with the correct permisions. Try to turn off / turn on Wifi from the GUI.
7. Provide a firmware if your driver needs it
If your driver needs a firmware you will have to copy this firmware file to /etc/firmware on your android build. Android doesn't use a standard hotplug binary (although there is an implementation available on android-x86system/code/toolbox/hotplug.c ) instead the init process takes care of firmware events and loads the firmware file from /etc/firmware (see: system/core/init/devices.c handle_firmware_event()function).
Firmware file name is defined by the driver and might also contain a folder like: RTL8192SU/rtl8192sfw.bin, entire file path should be available in /etc/firmware
8. Make your driver work with Android custom wpa_supplicant commands and SIOCSIWPRIV ioctl.
Android uses SIOCSIWPRIV ioctl to send commands to modify driver behaviour and receive information like signal strength, mac address of the AP, link speed etc. This ioctl is usually not implemented in any known wireless drivers except bcm4329 which is in google msm kernel branch .
The errors from not having this ioctl implemented will look like:
E/wpa_supplicant( ): wpa_driver_priv_driver_cmd failed wpa_driver_priv_driver_cmd RSSI len = 4096
E/wpa_supplicant( ): wpa_driver_priv_driver_cmd failed
D/wpa_supplicant( ): wpa_driver_priv_driver_cmd LINKSPEED len = 4096
E/wpa_supplicant( ): wpa_driver_priv_driver_cmd failed
I/wpa_supplicant( ): CTRL-EVENT-DRIVER-STATE HANGED
After 4, WEXT_NUMBER_SEQUENTIAL_ERRORS errors, android will abort using the device.
To quickly test your wifi from interface you can disable error checking inexternal/wpa_supplicant/driver_wext.c by simply making ret = 0; inwpa_driver_priv_driver_cmd() function after the SIOCSIWPRIV ioctl call. This will make all access points in android UI appear without signal or MAC address.
To proper implement the ioctl you will need to modify your kernel driver to reply to SIOCSIWPRIV ioctl with RSSI (signal strength) and MACADDR commands being the most important.
A better way is to add a custom driver_xxx.c to google external/wpa_supplicant/ implementingwpa_driver_priv_driver_cmd() function that will take care of RSSI, MACADDR and others, through calls to SIOCGIWSTATS, SIOCGIFHWADDR ioctls, with the rest of the functions being called from driver_wext.c.
Below is a link to a patch for wpa_supplicant that I did for mini-box.com picoPC Android build. It creates a new driver awext which "emulates" android driver commands using wireless extensions ioctls.
How to use the new driver:
1. In your BoardConfig.mk define: BOARD_WPA_SUPPLICANT_DRIVER := AWEXT
2. Change init.rc wpa_supplicant service command line by replacind -Dwext with -Dawext
AWEXT driver patch download: android_wext_emulation_driver_awext.patch

Hi,
Was trying the same but have been facing some errors. E/WifiHW ( ): Unable to open connection to supplicant on "/data/system/wpa_supplicant/wlan0"
Even though i have added permissions as mentioned. Would like to compare my files with yours. Would you mind sharing a copy of the modified files ?
Thanks

Add a chown wifi wifi on the folders and verify with ls -l /data/system/ on console. I placed the files here:
At May 10, 2010 12:41 PM , panic said...
Also try to turnoff/turnon wifi, maybe wpa_supplicant hasn't yet created the socket. I've seen this on my build.
You should see something similar to this in logcat (if you enabled wpa_supplicant debug):

Should have read access to wifi user/group. Also specify -Dwext as driver.

Dear sir, I had setup my device with wpa_supplicant working good. But the message "ioctl[SIOCGIWRATE]: No such device" is showed after linkspeed command parsed by driver_awext.c. Would you please help me to figure out where to setup the correct interface in this situation? Thank you~
At May 12, 2010 2:36 PM , panic said...
@yonathana You have syntax errors on your dhcpcd line also check permissions for /system/etc/wifi
@Oramon Your driver doesn't support WRATE ioctl that means you will have no link speed information but wifi should be working without.

Hi
In Step6, building it as a module,
When you say:
"Make sure you copy your kernel module when building android to the correct location."
What is the correct location ? I built my driver on linux and copied the generated wl.ko file to the out/target/product/xxx/system/lib/modules/2.6.29-android-x86/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/wl/wl.ko
But, I get "Exec format error" when I try to do insmod wl.ko.
How do I include the module to be built by android ? Mine is a broadcom 4311 wireless card.
Regards
Sireesha.

Hi panic,
thanks for your work. It helped me a lot.
Here some improvements:
@ point 4
if you use dhcp in init.rc you should also add a working folder.
mkdir /data/misc/dhcp 0770 dhcp dhcp
chmod 0770 /data/misc/dhcp
@ point 5
you have to use the wpa_supplicant.conf in /data/misc/wifi because in /system/etc/wifi/ is only a template which is write protected. to save configured networks you need to have write access to the conf file.
@ point 8
your awext driver patch misses a small part.

Hi, I followed the steps to enable wifi on froyo. wifi is getting enabled but when tried to connect it is not setting system properties like dhcp.eth0.ipaddress and other. it is setting only dhcp.eth0.dns1, dhcp.eth0.dns2 and dns3. whether I need to configure or change to set all system properties?

Sorry but I haven't found any way to contact you. So, why your sis drivers aren't part of Xorg?
Is it updated?
Thank you.

Dear Sir
First, thank you for your shares, it really helps me a lot. Now I have a question of supporting multi-WiFi drivers at the same time. Is there any possibility not to init interface name(ex.wlan0,wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -c xxxxx......) in init.rc? Because different WiFi drivers have different interface names. Or could you provide any other suggestions for this purpose? My work-arounded solution is to modify the same interface name for different WiFi drivers in src code(ex.wlan0). Then modify wifi.c(hardware\libhardware_legacy\wifi) to load different WiFi modules base on VID/PID table, which I've added for this purpose. But I think it's not a good solution. I'd appreciate of your comments. Thank you for your kindly help again.
ps. my email is hoyushen@gmail.com
Sincerely, Kevin

proveyourselfthom:
No the X11 drivers are no longer updated, although Mandriva had picked up my driver and added fixes and updates. I think the driver name was sisimedia or something similar.
At March 22, 2011 5:20 PM , panic said...
hoyushen:
Might be possible with gingerbread, since I've seen that the wpa_supplicant and dhcp are now started from wifi.c in hardware_legacy/wifi
You will need to modify wifi.c to get the interface name from sysfs and build up the wpa_supplicant command.
/××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××/
呵呵，就是这样的，我使用的是内核集成驱动，没有使用模块形式加载。另外我使用 android私有socket ， driver_wext.c驱动，是android源代码带有的，在android 的 BoardConfig.mk文件里关于WiFi的配置：
BOARD_HAVE_LIBWIFI := true
BOARD_WPA_SUPPLICANT_DRIVER := WEXT
另外需要非常注意的一个地方是android中跟目录下面的 init.rc 文件，里面的
# we will start as root and wpa_supplicant will switch to user wifi
# after setting up the capabilities required for WEXT
service wpa_supplicant /system/bin/wpa_supplicant
-Dfawext -iwlan0 -c/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf -dd
# user wifi
# group wifi inet keystore
socket wpa_wlan0 dgram 660 wifi wifi
disabled
oneshot
wpa_supplicant 启动是需要root权限，否则如果你没有注释掉下面两行
# user wifi
# group wifi inet keystore
那么在android2.3 （我的tag-----Android 2.3.3_r1) 中无法成功启动wifi，我就是因为这个原因找了一周的时间，才发现是这里的问题，查找问题的关键是看logcat 的打印信息。
我的关于WiFi的其他配置，主要是(init.rc中)与作者的基本一样，你可以参考他的init.rc文件。
如果您在移植wifi，那么一定要静下心来读读上面那位外国朋友写的文章，受益非浅，感谢作者panic.
