All of the ath11k supported AHB SoC-s as well as PCI cards require firmware binaries. So provide them from the QUIC repos which look like the new upstream for ath11k related firmware images. Signed-off-by: Robert Marko <[email protected]>
QRTR is Qualcomm IPC router protocol and ath11k requires it for both AHB and PCI support, so package it as a kernel module so it can be added as a dependency to the ath11k module. Only kernel 5.15 is currently supported due to various things missing in 5.10 whose backporting is out of scope for this patch. SMD, TUN and MHI variants are packaged. SMD variant depends on the ipq807x target as it has dependency on the RPMSG drivers which are Qualcomm and SoC specific anyway. Signed-off-by: Robert Marko <[email protected]>
ath11k is the upstream driver for Qualcomm 802.11ax radios, both for the internal AHB and PCI based cards. It differs a bit from ath10k as it requires stuff like QRTR, QMI helpers so those had to be packaged before this patch. Since AHB is SoC specific, it currently depeneds on ipq807x target.

Edimax CAX1800 is a 802.11 ax dual-band AP with PoE. AP can be ceiling or wall mount. Specifications: • CPU: Qualcomm IPQ8070A Quad core Cortex-A53 1.4GHz • RAM: 512MB of DDR3 • Storage: 128MB NAND (contains rootfs) / 8MB NOR (contains art and uboot-env) • Ethernet: 1x 1G RJ45 port (QCA8072) PoE • WLAN: 2.4GHz: Qualcomm QCN5024 2x2 802.11b/g/n/ax 574 Mbps PHY rate 5GHz: Qualcomm QCN5054 2x2 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax 1201 PHY rate • LEDs: 3 x GPIO-controlled System-LEDs (form one virtual RGB System-LED) black_small_square Buttons: 1x soft reset black_small_square Power: 12V DC jack or PoE (802.3af ) An unpopulated serial header is onboard. RX/TX is working, bootwait is active, secure boot is not enabled. SSH can be activated in the stock firmware, but it drops only to a limited shell . Installation Instructions: black_small_square obtain serial access black_small_square stop auto boot black_small_square tftpboot the initramfs image (serverip is set to 192.168.99.8 in uboot) black_small_square bootm black_small_square copy openwrt-ipq807x-generic-edimax_cax1800-squashfs-nand-factory.ubi to the device black_small_square write the image to the NAND: black_small_square cat /proc/mtd and look for rootfs partition (should be mtd0) black_small_square ubiformat /dev/mtd0 -f -y openwrt-ipq807x-generic-edimax_cax1800-squashfs- nand-factory.ubi black_small_square reboot Note: Device is not using dual partitioning (NAND contains other partitions with different manufacture data etc.) Draytek VigorAP 960C and Lancom LW-600 both look similar, but I haven't checked them.

QNAP 301w is a AX WIFI router with 4 1G and 2 10G ports. Specifications: • CPU: Qualcomm IPQ8072A Quad core Cortex-A53 2.2GHz • RAM: 1024MB of DDR3 • Storage: 4GB eMMC (contains kernel and rootfs) / 8MB NOR (contains art and u-boot-env) • Ethernet: 4x 1G RJ45 ports + 2 10G ports (Aquantia AQR113C) • WLAN: 2.4GHz: Qualcomm QCN5024 2x2 802.11b/g/n/ax 1174 Mbps PHY rate 5GHz: Qualcomm QCN5054 4x4 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax 2402 PHY rate • LEDs: 7 x GPIO-controlled dual color LEDs + 2 GPIO-controlled single color LEDs • Buttons: 1x soft reset / 1x WPS • Power: 12V DC jack A poulated serial header is onboard. RX/TX is working, bootwait is active, secure boot is not enabled. SSH can be activated in the stock firmware, hold WPS button til the second beep (yes the router has a buzzer) SSH is available on port 22200, login with user admin and password "mac address of the router". Installation Instructions: • obtain serial access (https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/qnap/301w#serial) • stop auto boot • setenv serverip 192.168.10.1 • setenv ipaddr 192.168.10.10 • tftpboot the initramfs image (openwrt-ipq807x-generic-qnap_301w-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb) • bootm • make sure that current_entry is set to "0": "fw_printenv -n current_entry" should be print "0". If not, do "fw_setenv current_entry 0" • copy openwrt-ipq807x-generic-qnap_301w-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin to the device to /tmp folder • sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-ipq807x-generic-qnap_301w-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin this flashes openwrt to the first kernel and rootfs partition (mmcblk0p1 / mmcblk0p4) • reboot Note: this leaves the second kernel / rootfs parition untouched. So if you want to go back to stock, stop u-boot autoboot, "setenv current_entry 1" , "saveenv", "bootipq". Stock firmware should start from the second partition. Then do a firmwareupgrade in the stock gui, that should overwrite the openwrt in the first partitions Make 10G Aquantia phy's work: The aquantia phy's need a firmware to work. This can either be loaded in linux with a userspace tool or in u-boot. I was not successfull to load the firmware in linux (aq-fw-download) but luckily there is aq_load_fw available in u-boot. But first the right firmware needs to write to the 0:ETHPHYFW mtd partition (it is empty on my device) Grab the ethphy firmware image from: https://github.com/kirdesde/nbg7815_gpl/blob/master/target/linux/ipq/ipq807x_64/prebuilt_images/AQR_ethphyfw.mbn and scp that to openwrt. Check the 0:ETHPHYFW partition number: cat /proc/mtd|grep "0:ETHPHYFW", should be mtd10. Backup the 0:ETHPHYFW partition: dd if=/dev/mtd10 of=/tmp/ethphyfw.backup, scp ethphyfw.backup to a save place. Write the new firmware image to the 0:ETHPHYFW partition: "mtd erase /dev/mtd10", "mtd -n write AQR_ethphyfw.mbn /dev/mtd10". Reboot to u-boot. Check if aq_load_fw is working: "aq_load_fw 0", that checks the firmware and if successfull, loads iram and dram to one of the aquantia phy's. If that worked, add the aq_load_fw to the bootcmd: setenv bootcmd "aq_load_fw 0 && aq_load_fw 8 && bootipq" "saveenv" "reset" Board reboots and the firmware load to both phy's should start and then openwrt boots. Check if the 10G ports work. Note: lan port labeled "10G-2" is configured as WAN port as per default. All other port are in the br-lan. This can be changed in the network config.

QSDK NSS builds utilize skbuff recycling for better handling of memory. On a Dynalink DL-WRX36 (pbuf script should be set to 'auto') a significant drop in memory usage was observed as well consistent sustained RX/TX speeds.

Explicitly setting 'ATH11K_MEM_PROFILE_512M' on and see if system crashes on boot. 2.) Explicitly setting 'ATH11K_MEM_PROFILE_1G' 3.) Remove patches 999-233-ath11k-Disable-rx_header-tlv-for-2K-SKB.patch 999-311-ath11k-configure-nss-thread-priority-during-pdev_ini.patch And re-test with #1 and #2 It was incorrectly assumed that setting a 512M for 1G platforms would save memory, instead it needs to be explicitly set to know proper memory regions, otherwise it would cause fw crash.

QSDK NSS builds utilize skbuff recycling for better handling of memory. On a Dynalink DL-WRX36 (pbuf script should be set to 'auto') a significant drop in memory usage was observed as well consistent sustained RX/TX speeds.
