Hi,

Unfortunately I am new to submitting bin files - please excuse if 
anything is not matching or missing and correct me if anything is missing.

Following 
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/ath10k/boardfiles here 
is what I think is needed.

* description for what hardware this is:
According to 'lspci -vvv'
- Qualcomm Atheros QCA6174 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 32)
   - Subsystem: Lite-On Communications Inc Device 0847

* origin of the board file (did you create it yourself or where you 
downloaded)
The board.bin file which is needed to make my WiFi adapter work can be 
found here:
- https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware/pull/3
Quote:
   "this is the renamed eeprom_ar6320_3p0_NFA364xp.bin which was was 
needed to get my killer 1535 working."

- Reading the pull request, it was most likely taken from stock firmware 
image

* ids to be used with the board file (ATH10K_BD_IE_BOARD_NAME in ath10k)
I personally do not know what is meant/needed here, but I suspect that 
this is meant:
- QCA6174 hw3.0
   + 
bus=pci,vendor=168c,device=003e,subsystem-vendor=11ad,subsystem-device=0847
   Coming from this journalctl message:
     - ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to fetch board data for 
bus=pci,vendor=168c,device=003e,subsystem-vendor=11ad,subsystem-device=0847 
from ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board-2.bin)

* attach the actual board file (board.bin)
- qca6174-168c-003e.bin
- md5sum: df5ba1ca92f98bbd9cb537ddc5747011  qca6174-168c-003e.bin

Hope everything is correct. If not, please contact me.

Best regards,
Tim
