Namely that devices with +a variant present in SMBIOS that didn't need custom BDFs could no longer +find the default BDF, which has no variant appended. The patch was +reverted and re-applied with a fix for this issue in commit 1657b8f84ed9 +("search SMBIOS for OEM board file extension"). + +But the fix to fall back to a default BDF introduced another issue: the +driver currently parses IEs in board-2.bin one by one, and for each one +it first checks to see if it matches the ID with the variant appended. +If it doesn't, it checks to see if it matches the "fallback" ID with no +variant. If a matching BDF is found at any point during this search, the +search is terminated and that BDF is used. The issue is that it's very +possible (and is currently the case for board-2.bin files present in the +ath10k-firmware repository) for the default BDF to occur in an earlier +IE than the variant-specific BDF. In this case, the current code will +happily choose the default BDF even though a better-matching BDF is +present later in the file. + +This patch fixes the issue by first searching the entire file for the ID +with variant, and searching for the fallback ID only if that search +fails. It also includes some code cleanup in the area, as +ath10k_core_fetch_board_data_api_n() no longer does its own string +mangling to remove the variant from an ID, instead leaving that job to a +new flag passed to ath10k_core_create_board_name(). + +I've tested this patch on a QCA4019 and verified that the driver behaves +correctly for 1) both fallback and variant BDFs present, 2) only fallback +BDF present, and 3) no matching BDFs present. + +Fixes: 1657b8f84ed9 ("ath10k: search SMBIOS for OEM board file extension") +Signed-off-by: Thomas Hebb <tommyhebb@gmail.com> +--- + drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.c | 134 ++++++++++++++++++--------------- + 1 file changed, 72 insertions(+), 62 deletions(-) + +--- a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.c ++++ b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.c +@@ -1129,14 +1129,61 @@ out: + return ret;
