Dell - Internal Use - Confidential HI All: I have replaced the new firmware files to old one. And I build new ath10k_pci.ko ,ath10k_core.ko to get some debug info.
The new firmware is still not loaded by ath10k driver . And I compare the driver codes with 4.7 -rc7 , the codes are almost same. So the issue should be in firmware scope.

I think we can wait till firmware will be updated upstream, however Dell would like to know if what we provide in new RHEL7 release will work on their hardware. Thanks Stanislaw
