Subject: [PATCH 0/5] wifi: ath12k: Fix 5 GHz Wi-Fi regression on WCN7850
Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2026 21:27:45 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260123155750.6007-1-bjsaikiran@gmail.com> (raw)
This series fixes a critical 5 GHz Wi-Fi regression affecting WCN7850
(Snapdragon X Elite laptops) in kernel 6.17+. On affected systems,
only 2.4 GHz networks are detected while 5 GHz networks are completely
invisible.
The root cause is broken frequency range filtering logic introduced
between kernel 6.16 and 6.17 that filters out all channels when
frequency range values are reset to zero during regulatory updates.
Patch 4/5 is the primary fix that removes the broken filtering logic.
The other patches address related firmware stats handling issues and
regulatory domain initialization problems discovered during debugging.
Tested extensively on WCN7850 hw2.0 with firmware WLAN.HMT.1.1.c5-00302
on Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x (Snapdragon X Elite). Both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
networks now work correctly.
