#76876 — Bug#1023240: firmware-iwlwifi: iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-72.ucode possibly missing

Package: firmware-iwlwifi
Version: 20221012-1
Severity: normal


Hey there.

There possibly is a firmware file missing. In the kernel log I see:
# dmesg | grep -i wifi
[  158.112234] Intel(R) Wireless WiFi driver for Linux
[  158.114662] iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: firmware: failed to load iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-72.ucode (-2)

[  165.944059] iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: Unhandled alg: 0x707

So it first tries to load iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-72.ucode, which fails and only
then tries iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-71.ucode, which does in fact succeed...
and as far as I can see the device *is* working.

So maybe this is a non-issue, but maybe the missing file should be added.

Cheers,
Chris.

#76998

It was added to linux-firmware.git after 2022-10-12, should be in 20221109:

commit 06dbfbc74388a2e9a7228f4215b884a3139ece56
Author: Gregory Greenman <gregory.greenman@intel.com>
Date:   Wed Oct 26 12:15:12 2022 +0300

    iwlwifi: add new FWs from core69-81 release
    
    Add the -69.ucode firmwares for the currently supported hardware.
    This is not the latest core, but we didn't send it before and it still
    can be useful.

I'll check tomorrow whether it will cure the errors I'm getting with kernel
5.19.11-1~bpo11+1 on an AX211 with -71.ucode (regression from 5.18.16-1~bpo11+1
which works on the same hardware/firmware combo).
