[PATCH 3/3] wifi: rtw89: add firmware format version to backward compatible with older drivers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In the discuss threads [1] [2], new firmware format break user space
because older drivers can't recognize new firmware format. To avoid this,
the new format will be named rtw89/rtw8852b_fw-1.bin and only new driver
try to load it. Old drivers only load original and understandable firmware
rtw89/rtw8852b_fw.bin.

More, new driver will be still backward compatible with old firmware, so
original firmware can be used by new driver.

If there is newer firmware format is introduced, rtw89/rtw8852b_fw-2.bin
will be given. The same rules will be applied like above. So, we will have
firmware like below in linux-firmware in the future.

  rtw89/rtw8852b_fw-2.bin
  rtw89/rtw8852b_fw-1.bin
  rtw89/rtw8852b_fw.bin

After this patch, MODULE_FIRMWARE() of 8852A/B/C become
  rtw89/rtw8852a_fw.bin
  rtw89/rtw8852b_fw-1.bin
  rtw89/rtw8852c_fw.bin
