Hi! If you can put some code up then we can poke at it together and see how to get the firmware load and USB framework bits into if_ath(4).
You don't want to load it via userland; you really want the driver to load it at attach time and if it wants to power things fully down off or not. (You can do a reset command over USB to reset the chip back to "wait for firmware" which is nice for things like low power modes.) -a On Tue, 8 Jan 2019 at 02:12, Ashish Gupta <ashm...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm trying to add USB glue to the ath driver in order to support Atheros > USB cards (I'm working with the AR9271 chip specifically). > > The code for downloading firmware to the card, similar to uathload, is > ready but untested.
