Commit 9af7c32ceca8 ("ath10k: add target IRAM recovery feature support")
in v5.11 fails firmware loading without IRAM recovery feature. However,
the latest firmware from
https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware/tree/master/QCA9984/hw1.0/3.9.0.2
doesn't support IRAM, it follows new official ath10k firmwares may no
longer be loadable for kernel newer than v5.11.
[Fix]
A fix is proposed to
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/ath10k/2021-July/012729.html that
turns the lack/failure of IRAM recovery support a warning instead.
[Test Case]
With this fix, kernel gives errors about the IRAM supportness, but
proceeds to remaining procedures as before.
ath10k_pci :04:00.0: No hardware memory
ath10k_pci :04:00.0: failed to copy target iram contents: -12
ath10k_pci :07:00.0: No hardware memory
ath10k_pci :07:00.0: failed to copy target iram contents: -12
[Where problems could occur]
So the IRAM recovery feature may or may not be supported in the
officially released firmware, and people meet problems when using
non-IRAM supported firmware may still have a fallback to use older, but
IRAM recovery supported ones.
== original bug report ==
Hello, I use Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS.
The kernel was recently updated to 5.11
5.11.0-25-generic #27~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 13 17:41:23 UTC 2021
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Since then the ath10k_core driver for my QCA9984 card is broken and
only loads ~3 firmware versions from the 3.9.0.2 branch
https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware/tree/master/QCA9984/hw1.0/3.9.0.2
The firmware versions 70 / 86 / 91 are functional (but these firmware
versions are already 2 years old)
Responsible for this is the defective patch "ath10k: add target IRAM
recovery feature support"
https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/focal/commit/?h=hwe-5.11=9af7c32ceca85da27867dd863697d2aafc80a3f8
If I understand the patch correctly then the driver tries to load
firmware with the feature "iram recovery" into the memory of the host
(for recvovery purposes).
If this fails, the firmware is discarded and the network controller
remains unusable.
Of course, this is not a desirable behavior for optional firmware
features.

Commit 9af7c32ceca8 ("ath10k: add target IRAM recovery feature support")
in v5.11 fails firmware loading without IRAM recovery feature. However,
the latest firmware from

If I understand the patch correctly then the driver tries to load
firmware with the feature "iram recovery" into the memory of the host
(for recvovery purposes).
If this fails, the firmware is discarded and the network controller
remains unusable.
Of course, this is not a desirable behavior for optional firmware
features.

Commit 9af7c32ceca8 ("ath10k: add target IRAM recovery feature support")
in v5.11 fails firmware loading without IRAM recovery feature. However,
the latest firmware from
https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware/tree/master/QCA9984/hw1.0/3.9.0.2
doesn't support IRAM, it follows new official ath10k firmwares may no
longer be loadable for kernel newer than v5.11.
[Fix]
A fix is proposed to
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/ath10k/2021-July/012729.html that
turns the lack/failure of IRAM recovery support a warning instead.
[Test Case]
With this fix, kernel gives errors about the IRAM supportness, but
proceeds to remaining procedures as before.

ath10k_pci :07:00.0: No hardware memory
ath10k_pci :07:00.0: failed to copy target iram contents: -12
[Where problems could occur]
So the IRAM recovery feature may or may not be supported in the
officially released firmware, and people meet problems when using
non-IRAM supported firmware may still have a fallback to use older, but
IRAM recovery supported ones.

If I understand the patch correctly then the driver tries to load
firmware with the feature "iram recovery" into the memory of the host
(for recvovery purposes).
If this fails, the firmware is discarded and the network controller
remains unusable.
Of course, this is not a desirable behavior for optional firmware
features.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1939937] Re: ath10k: "add target IRAM recovery feature support" breaks QCA9984 Firmware load capability
This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
focal' to 'verification-done-focal'. If the problem still exists, change
the tag 'verification-needed-focal' to 'verification-failed-focal'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.
See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Commit 9af7c32ceca8 ("ath10k: add target IRAM recovery feature support")
in v5.11 fails firmware loading without IRAM recovery feature. However,
the latest firmware from
https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware/tree/master/QCA9984/hw1.0/3.9.0.2
doesn't support IRAM, it follows new official ath10k firmwares may no
longer be loadable for kernel newer than v5.11.
[Fix]
A fix is proposed to
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/ath10k/2021-July/012729.html that
turns the lack/failure of IRAM recovery support a warning instead.
[Test Case]
With this fix, kernel gives errors about the IRAM supportness, but
proceeds to remaining procedures as before.
ath10k_pci :04:00.0: No hardware memory
ath10k_pci :04:00.0: failed to copy target iram contents: -12
ath10k_pci :07:00.0: No hardware memory
ath10k_pci :07:00.0: failed to copy target iram contents: -12
[Where problems could occur]
So the IRAM recovery feature may or may not be supported in the
officially released firmware, and people meet problems when using
non-IRAM supported firmware may still have a fallback to use older, but
IRAM recovery supported ones.
== original bug report ==
Hello, I use Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS.
The kernel was recently updated to 5.11
5.11.0-25-generic #27~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 13 17:41:23 UTC 2021
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Since then the ath10k_core driver for my QCA9984 card is broken and
only loads ~3 firmware versions from the 3.9.0.2 branch
https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware/tree/master/QCA9984/hw1.0/3.9.0.2
The firmware versions 70 / 86 / 91 are functional (but these firmware
versions are already 2 years old)
Responsible for this is the defective patch "ath10k: add target IRAM
recovery feature support"
https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/focal/commit/?h=hwe-5.11=9af7c32ceca85da27867dd863697d2aafc80a3f8
If I understand the patch correctly then the driver tries to load
firmware with the feature "iram recovery" into the memory of the host
(for recvovery purposes).
If this fails, the firmware is discarded and the network controller
remains unusable.
Of course, this is not a desirable behavior for optional firmware
features.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1939937] Re: ath10k: "add target IRAM recovery feature support" breaks QCA9984 Firmware load capability
"Acked-by: Tim Gardner
I think for Hirsute this could wait until its at least in linux-next."
I have looked into the Hirsute Linux firmware package
linux-firmware_1.197_all.deb
The header of the QCA9984 firmware file says:
QCA-ATH10K 10.4-3.9.0.2-00131
This means that QCA9984 cards are not functional under Hirsute for the
time being.
so users have only the possibility to downgrade the firmware to 70 to 91
to get a working card
With the packages from Hirsute alone, the cards are definitely not
functional.

Hi, don't worry. linux/focal here means 5.4-generic, which is certainly not affected. linux/hirsute will then become the basis of hwe-5.11 in focal. So as long as linux/hirsute is being worked on, you'll have the fix in hwe-5.11/focal later. Since the results are positive as expected, I'll send out SRU patches later. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Hirsute) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Hirsute) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Hirsute) Assignee: (unassigned) => You-Sheng Yang (vicamo) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Impish) Status: Triaged => In Progress ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Impish) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Impish) Assignee: (unassigned) => You-Sheng Yang (vicamo) ** Changed in: linux-oem-5.13 (Ubuntu Focal) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: linux-oem-5.13 (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: linux-oem-5.13 (Ubuntu Focal) Assignee: (unassigned) => You-Sheng Yang (vicamo) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-oem-5.13 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1939937 Title: ath10k: "add target IRAM recovery feature support" breaks QCA9984 Firmware load capability Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux-oem-5.13 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux source package in Focal: Invalid Status in linux-oem-5.13 source package in Focal: In Progress Status in linux source package in Hirsute: In Progress Status in linux-oem-5.13 source package in Hirsute: Invalid Status in linux source package in Impish: In Progress Status in linux-oem-5.13 source package in Impish: Invalid Bug description: Hello, I use Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS.

The kernel was recently updated to 5.11 5.11.0-25-generic #27~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 13 17:41:23 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Since then the ath10k_core driver for my QCA9984 card is broken and only loads ~3 firmware versions from the 3.9.0.2 branch https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware/tree/master/QCA9984/hw1.0/3.9.0.2 The firmware versions 70 / 86 / 91 are functional (but these firmware versions are already 2 years old) Responsible for this is the defective patch "ath10k: add target IRAM recovery feature support" https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu- kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/focal/commit/?h=hwe-5.11=9af7c32ceca85da27867dd863697d2aafc80a3f8 If I understand the patch correctly then the driver tries to load firmware with the feature "iram recovery" into the memory of the host (for recvovery purposes). If this fails, the firmware is discarded and the network controller remains unusable. Of course, this is not a desirable behavior for optional firmware features. dmesg: [3.074952] ath: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel.
