Hello Franky et al,

I have made some progress understanding some issues.
But I remain baffled by many others :(

At my disposal, two S905X2 boards with SDIO-based brcm modules
(according to the labels on the boards) :

Board A embeds "AP6398SR3"  which identifies as
	x vendor=2d0 dev=4359 over sdio_read_cis
	x brcmfmac: F1 signature read @0x18000000=0x17294359
	x brcmfmac: BCM4359/9: chip=4359 rev=9

Board B embeds "AP6398SR32" which identifies as
	x vendor=2d0 dev=aae7 over sdio_read_cis
	x F1 signature read @0x18000000=0x1042aae8
	x brcmfmac: BCM43752/2: chip=aae8 rev=2

(I still do not understand why AP6398SR32 on board B
identifies as AAE7 on the SDIO bus, but as AAE8 via MMIO.
That does not make sense to me.)

On board A, WiFi module probes correctly with the default timing.
On board B, WiFi module requires waiting 10 ms more,
otherwise mmc_send_io_op_cond() (which sends CMD5) times out,
and the mmc core assumes that there is no card in the "slot".

Using the same firmware files in mainline that vendor's kernel uses,
WiFi on board A works as expected.
WiFi on board B logs a scan error (-52) every second,
and eventually panics the kernel.

NB: using the vendor's kernel, both modules work as expected.

Has anyone seen a similar panic on a SDIO-based WiFi module?


I was wondering:
Has anyone evaluated an X2/X3 meson board with a PCIe (not SIO) WiFi module?
Neil told PCIe is expected to be less CPU-intensive.

Has anyone evaluated an SDIO-based board that doesn't require the
amlogic,dram-access-quirk?
