Hi, [Sorry if this is a FAQ, I didn't find the answer on https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/ath10k/firmware and the mailing-list isn't searchable]
I have an XPS 13 9360 with a stock Killer 1535, and I suffer random freeze when enabling on-board WiFi. I'm not yet sure if it's due to i915 or ath10k. Anyway, while looking at the logs I noticed this: [ 3.685987] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: pci irq msi oper_irq_mode 2 irq_mode 0 reset_mode 0 [ 3.969321] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: firmware: failed to load ath10k/pre-cal-pci-0000:3a:00.0.bin (-2) [ 3.969324] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: Direct firmware load for ath10k/pre-cal-pci-0000:3a:00.0.bin failed with error -2 [ 3.969347] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: firmware: failed to load ath10k/cal-pci-0000:3a:00.0.bin (-2) [ 3.969350] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: Direct firmware load for ath10k/cal-pci-0000:3a:00.0.bin failed with error -2 [ 3.969889] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: firmware: failed to load ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/firmware-5.bin (-2) [ 3.969892] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: Direct firmware load for ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/firmware-5.bin failed with error -2 [ 3.969896] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: could not fetch firmware file 'ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/firmware-5.bin': -2 [ 3.971125] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: firmware: direct-loading firmware ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/firmware-4.bin [ 3.971137] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: qca6174 hw3.2 target 0x05030000 chip_id 0x00340aff sub 1a56:1535 [ 3.971140] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: kconfig debug 0 debugfs 0 tracing 0 dfs 0 testmode 0 [ 3.972789] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: firmware ver WLAN.RM.2.0-00180-QCARMSWPZ-1 api 4 features wowlan,ignore-otp,no-4addr-pad crc32 75dee6c5 [ 4.035365] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: firmware: direct-loading firmware ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board-2.bin [ 4.035543] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: board_file api 2 bmi_id N/A crc32 6fc88fe7 [ 6.156152] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0: htt-ver 3.26 wmi-op 4 htt-op 3 cal otp max-sta 32 raw 0 hwcrypto 1 [ 6.249858] ath10k_pci 0000:3a:00.0 wlp58s0: renamed from wlan0 Apparently there are files missing, and I can't even find them on https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware but apparently the card is working anyway. So why does it try to load a firmware if it's not useful ?
