Hy Ladies and Gentlemen,

For my project, i use a Solidrun Clearfog base.
Os is build with Buildroot.
The Kernel is custom too.

I have a wifi card pcie : driver ath10k and firmwre QCA988X.

When i switch on the Clearfog, the wifi card doesn't mount :

Code:

dmesg | grep 'ath'
[ 1.745947] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: enabling device (0140 -> 0142)
[ 1.752432] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: pci irq msi oper_irq_mode 2 irq_mode 0 r eset_mode 0
[ 1.989357] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: Failed to find firmware-N.bin (N between 2 and 6) from ath10k/QCA988X/hw2.0: -2

[ 2.006653] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: could not probe fw (-2)

But if i chmod 777 the firmware and do a soft reboot, the wifi card mounts :

Code:

dmesg | grep 'ath'

If i shut down the clearfog and restart, same problem.

I have a script in /etc/init.d which do a chmod 777 for the firmware, in vain

Can someone help me please ?

Solidrun? Clearfog? That's Arm64 based?

There's issues here because the PC compatibles all have their bios, and are installable. Only the expensive Arm servers are "Arm Server Ready" or whatever the standard is. If you get on the solidrun website or email them, you should get the forum where the software heads hang out. Ask there if you need answers, unless you're one of the solidrun software heads yourself
