There are firmware versions which do not support host capability
QMI request. We suspect either the host cap is not implemented or
there may be firmware specific issues, but apparently there seem
to be a generation of firmware that has this particular behavior.

For example, firmware build on Xiaomi Poco F1 (sdm845) phone:
"QC_IMAGE_VERSION_STRING=WLAN.HL.2.0.c3-00257-QCAHLSWMTPLZ-1"

If we do not skip the host cap QMI request on Poco F1, then we
get a QMI_ERR_MALFORMED_MSG_V01 error message in the
ath10k_qmi_host_cap_send_sync(). But this error message is not
fatal to the firmware nor to the ath10k driver and we can still
bring up the WiFi services successfully if we just ignore it.

Hence introducing this DeviceTree quirk to skip host capability
QMI request for the firmware versions which do not support this
feature.

So if you change the WiFi firmware, you may force a DT change too. Those 
are pretty independent things otherwise.

Why can't you just always ignore this error? If you can't deal with this 
entirely in the driver, then it should be part of the WiFi firmware so 
it's always in sync.

This is a valid concern and I'm not sure about the other devices, but
on PocoF1 I have tried all the three released firmware version updates:

WLAN.HL.2.0.c3-00257-QCAHLSWMTPLZ-1
WLAN.HL.2.0.c3-00445-QCAHLSWMTPLZ-1
WLAN.HL.2.0.c3-00534-QCAHLSWMTPLZ-1

and none of them works without this skip host-cap patch or equivalent
hack. PocoF1 is already 2+ years old device and sadly I do not expect
any major vendor update coming its way.

I don't know the technical details of the ath10k/qmi driver, but I'm
OK if we just ignore the return value of
ath10k_qmi_host_cap_send_sync() and move along.

Yes and that's not good. But I looked at somehow derive this from
firmware version numbers etc and it's not working out, so I'm out of
ideas for alternatives.

Unfortunately the firmware versions I've hit this problem on has gone
belly up when receiving this request, that's why I asked Amit to add a
flag to skip it.

That said, in the devices I've hit this I've managed to get newer
firmware working, which doesn't have either problem.

So what is next for this DT quirk?

I'm OK to go back to my previous of_machine_is_compatible()
device specific hack, for now,
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/1600328501-8832-1-git-send-email-amit.pundir@linaro.org/
till we have a reasonable fix in place or receive a vendor firmware
drop which fixes this problem (which I believe is highly unlikely
though, for this 2+ years old device).

Rob, we still have this problem and we've not come up with any way to
determine in runtime that we need to skip this part of the
initialization.

Apologies for this late reply. I was out for a while.

If by that (the firmware version) you mean "QC_IMAGE_VERSION_STRING",
then that may be a bit tricky. Pocophone F1 use the same firmware
family version (WLAN.HL.2.0.XXX), used by Dragonboard 845c (which has
Wi-Fi working upstream).

No worries.

I'm meaning the ath10k firmware meta data we have in firmware-N.bin
(N=2,3,4...) file. A quick summary:

Every ath10k firmware release should have firmware-N.bin. The file is
created with this tool:

https://github.com/qca/qca-swiss-army-knife/blob/master/tools/scripts/ath10k/ath10k-fwencoder

firmware-N.bin contains various metadata, one of those being firmware
feature flags:

enum ath10k_fw_features {
	/* wmi_mgmt_rx_hdr contains extra RSSI information */
	ATH10K_FW_FEATURE_EXT_WMI_MGMT_RX = 0,

	/* Firmware from 10X branch. Deprecated, don't use in new code. */
	ATH10K_FW_FEATURE_WMI_10X = 1,

        [...]

So what you could is add a new flag enum ath10k_fw_features, create a
new firmware-N.bin for your device and enable the flag on the firmware
releases for your device only.

I don't know if this is usable, but one solution which came to my mind.

It sounds quite reasonable to pass this using firmawre-N.bin instead of
DT, however that would imply that we need to find firmware-N.bin in the
device-specific directory, where we keep the wlanmdsp.mbn as well - and
not under /lib/firmware/ath10k


For other devices (e.g. ADSP, modem or wlanmdsp.mbn) we're putting these
in e.g. /lib/firmware/qcom/LENOVO/81JL/ and specifies the location using
a firmware-name property in DT.

Hi,

Reviving this old thread again, to check if there are still any hopes
of landing this patch upstream.

Based on the feedback I have got so far, there are no easy way to skip
this part of the initialization at runtime. Bjorn and Kalle discussed
the possibility of creating device specific firmware-N.bin firmware
file but that would mean firmware-N.bin has to be loaded from the
device-specific directory along with wlanmdsp.bin. And ideally making
ath10k/ath11k in-charge of firmware loading, but there doesn't seem to
be a consensus on this either(?)

Regards,
Amit Pundir
