Hello You-Sheng, or anyone else affected, Accepted linux-firmware into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux- firmware/20220329.git681281e4-0ubuntu3.16 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed- jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-firmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2020627 Title: upgrade iwlwifi firmware of FW API 72 for WiFi 6E support in Malaysia and Morocco Status in HWE Next: New Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux-firmware source package in Jammy: Fix Committed Bug description: [SRU Justification] [Impact] iwlwifi takes firmware updates to support WiFi 6E in Malaysia and Morocco. The models in concern are AX210 (iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0-*), AX211 (iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-*) and AX411 (iwlwifi-so-a0-gf4-a0-*). [Fix] pnvm along with the ucode firmware from upstream commit 5bc279fb161d ("iwlwifi: update core69 and core72 firmwares for So device") are required. While the pnvm and ucode blobs may not be upgraded simultaneously in one single commit, those involved in the upgrade path are also pulled. [Test Case] Use `iw` to enumerate supported WiFi 6E band: $ iw reg get global country <country>: DFS-FCC ... (5925 - 7125 @ 320), (N/A, 12), (N/A), NO-OUTDOOR, PASSIVE-SCAN [Where problems could occur] Currently linux-5.15 has FW API 66, linux-hwe-5.19 or above has 72, linux-6.3 has 74, and linux-unstable (v6.4) or above has 78, so this will update iwlwifi firmware usage for kernels <= 6.2 in Jammy, e.g. linux-oem-6.1, linux-5.15. [Other Info] Blobs with FW APIs >= 72 do no harm to jammy kernels, but will be referenced in oem-6.5 if planned. These commits have been included in linux-firmware/lunar, so only Jammy is nominated for fix. ========== original bug report ========== AX210: -72 ucode: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0-72.ucode?id=4309412c0d872897dc913c7d2797bb5ce05893ad pnvm: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/?id=20d9516de4cdc041e2aa83009e5b0464b1c3ed81 AX211: -72 ucode: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-72.ucode?id=5bc279fb161d529baaf8e837d900235fbbe9bf2f pnvm: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/?id=20d9516de4cdc041e2aa83009e5b0464b1c3ed81 AX411: -72 ucode: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/iwlwifi-so-a0-gf4-a0-72.ucode?id=5bc279fb161d529baaf8e837d900235fbbe9bf2f pnvm: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/iwlwifi-so-a0-gf4-a0.pnvm?id=78a8782a9e51e502a6ed267d270c6925fb738805 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hwe-next/+bug/2020627/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
