From 4ad0be160544ffbdafb7cec39bb8e6dd0a97317a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hans de Goede Date: Mon, 7 Jan 2019 14:33:27 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: Use firmware_request_nowarn for the clm_blob The linux-firmware brcmfmac firmware files contain an embedded table with per country allowed channels and strength info. For recent hardware these versions of the firmware are specially build for linux-firmware, the firmware files directly available from Cypress rely on a separate clm_blob file for this info. For some unknown reason Cypress refuses to provide the standard firmware files + clm_blob files it uses elsewhere for inclusion into linux-firmware, instead relying on these special builds with the clm_blob info embedded. This means that the linux-firmware firmware versions often lag behind, but I digress. The brcmfmac driver does support the separate clm_blob file and always tries to load this. Currently we use request_firmware for this. This means that on any standard install, using the standard combo of linux-kernel + linux-firmware, we will get a warning: "Direct firmware load for ... failed with error -2" On top of this, brcmfmac itself prints: "no clm_blob available (err=-2), device may have limited channels available". This commit switches to firmware_request_nowarn, fixing almost any brcmfmac device logging the warning (it leaves the brcmfmac info message in place).
