bug Since release ath10k-5.2

[Oozil]

I was able to open 4.9GHz channels and 5.9GHz channels on ATH10K-4.19 but the latest versions did not work and do not appear in the openWRT system interface such as ATH10K-4.19 only appear through this command putty ssh ( iw phy
How can I fix that on the latest releases

You can change the following lines:

https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/openwrt-21.02/package/kernel/ath10k-ct/Makefile#L11-L13

If you do this, you should be able to use other versions in OpenWrt. If you did this, you can also hand in a pull-request at OpenWrt to make your "version bump" available to everyone (if you think that's worth for the community).

The ath10k-ct driver versions need to match the backports, unless you have skill and willingness to effectively back/forward port the driver to work with whatever backports you are using. Also, the change in channel support might be from elsewhere in mac80211, not just ath10k. I did remove some out-of-tree hacks related to 4.9 from my kernel, not sure if that affected ath10k driver much or not.

تحتاج إصدارات برنامج التشغيل ath10k-ct إلى مطابقة المنافذ الخلفية ، ما لم تكن لديك المهارة والرغبة في إعادة / توجيه السائق بشكل فعال للعمل مع أي منفذ خلفي تستخدمه. أيضًا ، قد يكون التغيير في دعم القناة من مكان آخر في mac80211 ، وليس فقط ath10k. لقد قمت بإزالة بعض الاختراقات خارج الشجرة المتعلقة بـ 4.9 من نواة بلدي ، ولست متأكدًا مما إذا كان ذلك قد أثر على برنامج تشغيل ath10k كثيرًا أم لا.

Indeed, this modification affected ath10k, and I want to compile ath10k-4.19 with the latest commit from openwrt, but it gives me an error in the compilation only. It works with ath10k-5.15. How can I fix that?

Also, the channels that I added all work on 20mhz only, they do not work on 40mhz or 80mhz, while the same channels are on soft ddwrt and work on all bands .

Please give me a solution to the back port compatibility issue
