History

Florian Grandel b309822e8e samples: net: wpanusb: document endianness The WPAN-USB sample did not document endianness of some user space variables. As the IEEE 802.15.4 stack uses attributes in several different encodings, the endianness should be documented. Signed-off-by: Florian Grandel <jerico.dev@gmail.com>		2022-10-12 18:40:59 +02:00

wpanusb sample
##############

Overview
********

This application exports ieee802154 radio over USB to be used in
other OSes such as Linux.  For Linux, the ieee802154 stack would be
implemented using the Linux SoftMAC driver.
This sample can be found under :zephyr_file:`samples/net/wpanusb` in the
Zephyr project tree.

Requirements
************

- a Zephyr board with supported 802.15.4 radio and supported USB driver
  (such as the :ref:`nrf52840dk_nrf52840` or :ref:`atsamr21_xpro`)
  connected via USB to a Linux host
- wpanusb Linux kernel driver (in the process of being open sourced)
- wpan-tools (available for all Linux distributions)

Building and Running
********************

There are configuration files for various setups in the
``samples/net/wpanusb`` directory:

- :file:`prj.conf`
    This is the standard default config.  This can be used by itself for
    hardware which has native 802.15.4 support.

- :file:`overlay-cc2520.conf`
    This overlay config enables support for CC2520

Build the wpanusb sample for a board:

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/net/wpanusb
   :board: <board to use>
   :gen-args: -DOVERLAY_CONFIG=<overlay file to use>
   :goals: build
   :compact:

Example building for the Nordic nRF52840 Development Kit:

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/net/wpanusb
   :board: nrf52840dk_nrf52840
   :goals: build
   :compact:

When connected to Linux with wpanusb kernel driver, it is recognized as:

.. code-block:: console

   ...
   T:  Bus=01 Lev=02 Prnt=02 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#=  3 Spd=12  MxCh= 0
   D:  Ver= 1.10 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs=  1
   P:  Vendor=2fe3 ProdID=000d Rev=01.00
   C:  #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=c0 MxPwr=100mA
   I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=wpanusb
   ...

The following script enables the network interface in Linux
(uses iwpan tool from above):

.. code-block:: console

    #!/bin/sh
    PHY=`iwpan phy | grep wpan_phy | cut -d' ' -f2`
    echo 'Using phy' $PHY
    iwpan dev wpan0 set pan_id 0xabcd
    iwpan dev wpan0 set short_addr 0xbeef
    iwpan phy $PHY set channel 0 26
    ip link add link wpan0 name lowpan0 type lowpan
    ip link set wpan0 up
    ip link set lowpan0 up
