Hi,
The support for this device was added a while ago to OpenWrt. This AP requires
two special BDFs to get the Wi-Fi PHYs working (correctly). The bmi-board-
id='s would clash with one of the the IPQ401X AP-DK boards because QCA doesn't
provide special IDs for customers and seems to use the AP-DK board-ids in the
wifi firmware to change its behavior.
Now to the questions from the wiki page [1]:
* description for what hardware this is:
- it is a QCA401x based board (most likely on qcom-ipq4019-ap.dk01.1)
- one QCA40xx radio is used as 2.4GHz radio
- one QCA40xx radio is used as 5GHz radio
* origin of the board file (did you create it yourself or where you
downloaded)
- Christian didn't include this info in the OpenWrt commit (maybe he can add
it here)
- most likely taken from stock firmware image
* ids to be used with the board file (ATH10K_BD_IE_BOARD_NAME in ath10k)
- QCA4019 hw1.0
+ bus=ahb,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=16,variant=AVM-FRITZBox-4040

+ bus=ahb,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=17,variant=AVM-FRITZBox-4040

f3dc3c2f10037722006e9e7e5173a7468649e9a554f564323f9580f4a8bba10a
* attach the actual board file (board.bin)
- The name of the files are equal to the id string in the board-2.bin
(minus the ".bin")
Kind regards,
Sven
