Sven Eckelmann f39fc67c8e mac80211: ath10k: search DT for BDF variant info
Board Data File (BDF) is loaded upon driver boot-up procedure. The right
board data file is identified on QCA4019 using bus, bmi-chip-id and
bmi-board-id.

The problem, however, can occur when the (default) board data file cannot
fulfill the vendor requirements and it is necessary to use a different
board data file.

This problem was solved for SMBIOS by adding a special SMBIOS type 0xF8.
Something similar has to be provided for systems without SMBIOS but with
device trees. No solution was specified by QCA and therefore a new one has
to be found for ath10k.

The device tree requires addition strings to define the variant name

    wifi@a000000 {
    	status = "okay";
    	qcom,ath10k-calibration-variant = "RT-AC58U";
    };

    wifi@a800000 {
    	status = "okay";
    	qcom,ath10k-calibration-variant = "RT-AC58U";
    };

This would create the boarddata identifiers for the board-2.bin search

 *  bus=ahb,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=16,variant=RT-AC58U
 *  bus=ahb,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=17,variant=RT-AC58U

README

This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution.

Please use "make menuconfig" to choose your preferred
configuration for the toolchain and firmware.

You need to have installed gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make,
find, grep, diff, unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers.

Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to get all the latest package definitions
defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default respectively
and "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks of all of them into
package/feeds/.

Use "make menuconfig" to configure your image.

Simply running "make" will build your firmware.
It will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain, 
the kernel and all choosen applications.

To build your own firmware you need to have access to a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system
(case-sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin will not be supported because of
the lack of case sensitiveness in the file system.
