MAC on stm32

Post by drakon »

Hello!

If am right where is currently no support for MAC on stm32. Is there any plans for adding MAC support in near future?

Hi,

There is already an experimental MAC driver, please read this thread:

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=23

This implementation is a wrapper around the ST driver, a native driver will be implemented at some point, it is already in the to-do list, but I can't promise a release date.

Hi,

thanks for your fast reply! I'm planing a new project and would like to use ChibiOS as operation system. I've took a look at the link but I'm new to Chebios and can't say much about it.

What do you think about the adding of MAC support? Does it require much time? Do you expect much troubles with it?

I don't expect any trouble, it is just matter of time for a native driver.

In the meanwhile I am going to integrate that experimental driver, keep an eye on that thread.
