Subject: Request for MT6630 firmware for linux-firmware (btmtksdio, mt76)
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2026 20:36:39 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ec8e2f41-ffea-4153-a5a0-ea2199bebd74@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi Sean and Chris,
I have mainline drivers for the MT6630 Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo chip on
SDIO, written for a 2017 Amazon Fire HD 10 (MT7173). I have MT6630
support in btmtksdio, and a new mt76 driver, mt6630s. On the tablet, I
have Wi-Fi working on 5 GHz with VHT80, and Bluetooth plays A2DP audio
to headphones. I plan on posting them to linux-bluetooth and linux-wireless.
The drivers need three files, none of which are in linux-firmware:
mediatek/mt6630/mt6630_patch_e3_0_hdr.bin, 47068 bytes
sha256 c9790255a4e0dacdd6ef9191647fe96c96c30e10f158e9bf15e9ec08a6bab022
mediatek/mt6630/mt6630_patch_e3_1_hdr.bin, 65524 bytes
sha256 8a4ed4d384bd14bf255cde87adefe5136742575752e571c39cf49ceef221e6ea
mediatek/mt6630/WIFI_RAM_CODE_MT6630, 237008 bytes
sha256 c9715c3f09fbd92afa74bf530c8dea34a0558b463799e4feb3795053402c5558
They are from the Fire OS vendor files for the tablet. Both patches
carry the build time 20180626b001007, and the chip reports hw version
0x8a12, ROM version 0x8a11. Fire OS also has an older pair, built
20170622224023a.
I have three questions:
1. Would MediaTek submit these files to linux-firmware under
LICENCE.mediatek, or sign off on a submission I prepare? linux-firmware
only takes firmware from the vendor or with its acknowledgement, so I
wouldn't send them on my own.
2. Are these the right builds for the MT6630 E3, or is there a newer one
you'd rather ship?
3. Are the names above acceptable? I'd like the drivers and
linux-firmware to match before I post the drivers, and I can change them
to whatever you prefer.
Thank you, and best regards,
Ryan Brue
