QCA9377 USB Support

QCA9377 USB Support

[Jay Foster]

I am looking for linux driver support for the QCA9377 USB Wi-Fi device 
(0cf3:9378).  I see on the mailing list archives that a patch 
(https://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=150567724712332&w=2) to add this 
to the ath10k driver was posted on September 17, 2017. According to the 
ath10k sources documentation 
(https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/ath10k/sources) such 
patches usually take a couple of weeks to get committed to either the 
master or ath-next branch of the kvalo ath.git tree.  I cloned the tree, 
but do not see this patch there on any branches.

What is the status of support for the QCA9377 USB device using ath10k?

Jay

Parts of the USB support have been added to the ath.git repo and to mainline (but not the patch you were referring to (as you noticed yourself)).

However, the patches are available here:

https://github.com/erstrom/linux-ath

Current status:

BTW, I created a separate patch for sdio and usb to make it easier for
me to review and test the patches:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath.git/log/?h=ath10k-pending-sdio-usb

I dropped patch "ath10k_sdio: enable firmware crash dump" temporarily as
it depends on the crasdump series which is not yet applied.

I'm trying to compile the ath10k driver for use with a USB QCA9377 
device.  I am using the ath10k ath10k-pending-sdio-usb branch.  The 
driver is not being loaded when the USB device enumerates, but I can 
manually modprobe it, but it isn't seeing my hardware.  I looked at 
trying to apply the patch for the QCA9377 USB device (above, from Erik 
Stromdahl), but it does not compile.

Is there an updated patch?  Do I still need this patch?  Or something else?
