This problem is particularly evident when a new snapdragon kernel snap is assembled, since the the building process breaks (and no kernel snap is generated): https://launchpadlibrarian.net/343287945 /buildlog_snap_ubuntu_xenial_arm64_snapdragon-kernel- test_BUILDING.txt.gz To fix the problem i removed the two files from linux-firmware- snapdragon 1.3-0ubuntu1 and pushed this new version to my ppa: https://launchpad.net/~p-pisati/+archive/ubuntu/embedded/+packages linux-firmware-snapdragon - 1.3-0ubuntu1 [Test case] Try to build a snapdragon kernel snap using Xenial/updates - with linux-firmware 1.157.13 and linux-firmware-snapdragon 1.2-0ubuntu1 it won't complete, while with linux-firmware-snapdragon 1.3-0ubuntu1 it will successfully complete. [Regression risk] The files imported in linux-firmware are the same files we shipped in linux-firmware-snapdragon: $ md5sum /lib/firmware/qcom/a300_pfp.fw 25aa81977303142bdc4490efad16138b /lib/firmware/qcom/a300_pfp.fw $ md5sum /lib/firmware/qcom/a300_pm4.fw d657cacd951742d9bbbe74224347cffe /lib/firmware/qcom/a300_pm4.fw $ md5sum dragon410c-firmware.orig/lib/a300_pfp.fw 25aa81977303142bdc4490efad16138b dragon410c-firmware.orig/lib/a300_pfp.fw $ md5sum dragon410c-firmware.orig/lib/a300_pm4.fw d657cacd951742d9bbbe74224347cffe dragon410c-firmware.orig/lib/a300_pm4.fw so the regression risk is very low.
