open-ath9k-htc-firmware VS libnklabs

> At 4:34 of the video I used "git clone https://github.com/qca/open-ath9k-htc-firmware"

Gledajući aircrack testove, izgleda da bi ti trebao ath9k_htc pa probaj tako nešto.

There are some old WiFi devices with libre firmware, but they only support old WiFi standards.

Your dongle is actually pretty much the best one I'd recommend, except of course for the firmware bugs, but you should probably report any firmware issues you find here: https://github.com/qca/open-ath9k-htc-firmware

Two issues with readline: it's GPL and it's big. For embedded systems intended to become products you really need something else. My tiny variant is this, but for sure there are many others:

("nkreadline" has editing, tab-completion (for embedded "nkcli" commands) and history)

I used RTEMS on Movius Myriad vision CPU (running on LEON- a SPARC clone).

I remember the RTEMS event concept was not very good- the events are globally shared. You are better off using semaphores.

>I have realized that for a majority of the embedded software using an RTOS is an overkill

I agree with this. Instead of an OS, we like to use a small framework that provides a CLI, database and UART communications (YMODEM protocol). It's a single stack system that provides a simple work-queue for scheduling future tasks / callbacks, and for interrupt code to schedule non-interrupt code. It works for almost everything as long as you are comfortable programming in an event-driven style.

(recently added support for AVR 8-bit processors).

I've extracted the Chromium-EC encryption functions, they are convenient for signing / verifying firmware on other platforms. Chromium-ec is nice for example code like this:

On the other hand, if you are looking for some generic embedded system code all in C, here is our library:

I think it's most unique feature is the embedded schema-based database- so you can save things like calibration and configuration information in local flash memory. Recently I've been adding device drivers for all common devices I can find on break-out boards for the Arduino and Raspberry-PI communities.
