There is an issue with NSS firmware version 12.0/12.1 where NSS WIFI mesh feature fails to bring up meshmgr.

It is not confirmed if this feature was removed in firmware > 11.4, or if the issue if with the NSS driver package, or client package wifimgr. Looking at the code changes between NHSS.QSDK.11.4 and 12.0.5 little was changed in nss-drv/nss-clients related to the way mesh interfaces are brought up (dynamic interfaces), much of the changes are related to stats. To work around the issue, allow user selectable option to choose a specific NSS firmware. The dependency is currently not enforced when selecting NSS mesh offloading in ath11k. Users will need to switch manually or disable the option altogether. |
