Hi,
I noticed my wireless interface can't get up with linux v4.14 and the
kernel log is flooded with firmware errors:
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Firmware error during reconfiguration - reprobe!
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: FW error in SYNC CMD DQA_ENABLE_CMD
and
ieee80211 phy63: Hardware restart was requested.
The wireless controller is: Intel Corporation Wireless 7260 (rev 83)
Firmware used is: iwlwifi-7260-17
Everything works fine with v4.13.12.
I didn't have time today to bisect for the offending commit. Full log
uploaded[1].
Best regards,
Bartosz Golaszewski

Your log shows "iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: loaded firmware version 17.228510.0
op_mode iwlmvm"
Mine, where the 7260 works, shows "iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: loaded firmware
version 17.459231.0 op_mode iwlmvm".
It seems as if you need newer firmware. A detailed file listing shows
"-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1049340 Oct 9 12:03
/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7260-17.ucode". That date is likely when I installed
the updated kernel firmware package from my distro. The md5sum for the file
is 73a217f55c47d3a70bb5dbbe1d676423.

Ok so it seems the version in linux-firmware is outdated. The file
you're using is available on github[1] and fixed the issue for me.
Thanks!

Interesting. Using md5sum of the git repo for linux-firmware gets
73a217f55c47d3a70bb5dbbe1d676423 iwlwifi-7260-17.ucode.
That is the file I'm using.
