Re: QCA6174 hw2.1?
I'm using the kvalo's kernel (4.1-rc3) without the patch, sometimes the adapter loses connection but it's bearable. I'll try that patch later. Killer N1525 on Alienware 15. OT: Anton, does the headphone jack work correctly on your Alienware 15? I sent a patch to the ALSA team about that.

I'm taking a guess here, but those DMAR messages seem to indicate that the firmware is attempting to write to the wrong part of memory (i.e. wrong firmware). Using kvalo's kernel fork is probably a good step (it contains those necessary patches). If you still don't get it working, then my only other idea is to try that dissect.py gist I mentioned previously. Here are the commands that worked for me: # python dissect.py drivers/Production/Windows8.1-x64/k1525w81/qca61x420.bin # python assemble.py killer-n1525-fw 0 fw-2.bin fw-1.bin 4 /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw2.1/firmware-4.bin The dissect.py script produced fw-1.bin which is the otp file and fw-2.bin which is the correct firmware (don't quote me on that, but it worked for me). As for your board.bin file, you need to check the .inf file that comes with your drivers. I'm not sure what the structure of that file is... for all I know I could be using the wrong board file... I hope this helps, otherwise you've reached the limits of my experience :) Maybe someone else on the list has a better idea?

Use with care. You can use the disassemble.py to extract the otp.bin from hw3 ath10k FW API blob: python disassemble.py /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/firmware-4.bin Then you can use the assemble.py to generate hw2.1 ath10k FW ABI blob: mkdir -p /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw2.1/ python assemble.py killer1252-testfw 0 path/to/qca61x420.bin path/to/otp.bin 4 /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw2.1/firmware-4.bin cp path/to/eeprom_ar6320_2p1_NFA354xp.bin /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw2.1/board.bin (mind the email line wrapping) I'm trying to generate the blob, but I found two big issues. The first: I have too many board files, which one should I use? eeprom_ar6320_2p1_NFA324i_5.bin eeprom_ar6320_2p1_NFA344i.bin eeprom_ar6320_2p1_NFA344i_highTX.bin eeprom_ar6320_2p1_NFA345i.bin eeprom_ar6320_2p1_NFA345i_highTX.bin eeprom_ar6320_2p1_NFA354xp.bin eeprom_ar6320_2p1_NFA355i.bin eeprom_qca9377_1p0_NFA435_olpc.bin The controller is a Qualcomm Atheros QCA6174 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 20) declared as Killer N1525 on Alienware 15. Whatever, I can try them one by one later. I picked up the first and built the firmware blob. But here's the second issue: it wants the calibration data. [2.067447] ath10k_pci :03:00.0: enabling device ( - 0002) [2.068679] ath10k_pci :03:00.0: pci irq msi-x interrupts 8 irq_mode 0 reset_mode 0 [2.215280] ath10k_pci :03:00.0: Direct firmware load for ath10k/cal-pci- :03:00.0.bin failed with error -2 [2.924276] ath3k: probe of 1-9:1.0 failed with error -22 [2.924299] usbcore: registered new interface driver ath3k [3.289023] ath10k_pci :03:00.0: unable to write to the device [3.289026] ath10k_pci :03:00.0: failed to download normal firmware: -110 [3.289052] ath10k_pci :03:00.0: could not init core (-110) [3.289099] ath10k_pci :03:00.0: could not probe fw (-110) How can I generate the cal-pci-:03:00.0.bin file? I'm using the 4.0.0-gentoo kernel on x86_64. Regards, Gabriele ___ ath10k mailing list ath10k@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/ath10k
