Bug 215625

Same reported by Xell Kim yesterday:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/87ee3yzo7v.fsf@kernel.org/T/

same problem.

Kalle, am I correctly understand, that fix will be bundled someday to https://github.com/kvalo/ath11k-firmware and we should subscribe to it?

Crossing fingers, we need here only firmware and not kernel changes )

Correct. I'm currently trying to find a correct board file this device and will upload once I have it. I will also notify here.

With WCN6855 I recommend using kernel v5.17. Older might work but I have not tested those.

I've done some experiments and may find something weird. As for the
reboot problem I mentioned in the previous email, I filed a new bug
report in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215630 and will
briefly describe it here as it may be solved with this problem
together.

kernel 5.17.rc3.22020 with blacklist ath11k:
dmesg | grep ath:
kernel 5.17-rc3 [ 0.950236] systemd[1]: File System Check on Root
Device was skipped because of a failed condition check
(ConditionPathIsReadWrite=!/).

kernel 5.17.rc3.22020 with ath11k not in the black list (this message
may vary due to info below)
systemd[1]: File System Check on Root Device was skipped because of a
failed condition check (ConditionPathIsReadWrite=!/).

[ 2.372332] ath11k_pci 0000:02:00.0: wcn6855 hw2.0

For Kernel 5.17rc3, when ath11k is in the blacklist, I can reboot the
system in normal speed, but when ath11k is not in the blacklist, the
reboot will be in very slow speed.

kernel 5.10.98 - 1: with ath11k in or not in the blacklist (the most
weird thing)
[    1.027027] systemd[1]: File System Check on Root Device was

[    1.087394] systemd[1]: Virtual Machine and Container Storage

When I use the kernel 5.10 the problem with the board file seems to
disappear. There may be some other problems with my system.

kernel 5.15 and kernel 5.10.98-1, with ath11k in or not in the
blacklist: reboot in normal speed.

Kalle, thank you for posting update at https://github.com/kvalo/ath11k-firmware/commit/a31b1a6e0032415dc3b0bdf9955fc7a1e63bd3ce

I pulled it and wi-fi now works out of the box.

Great, thanks for closing the bug.

It works for me too! Thanks a lot.
