My testing has shown both ath10k and firmware to be unstable. Here is a summary 
of results done over two weeks:

ath10k + QCA firmware = driver crash, WiFi dies completely.
ath10k + CT firmware = driver crash. WiFi dies completely.
ath10k-ct + QCA firmware = firmware crash. WiFi does not die*.
ath10k-ct + CT firmware = I have not gotten either to crash.

WiFi does not die completely with scenario 3 as mac80211 is able to restart the 
hardware. From my testing, it dies twice a day. I have no idea what triggers 
it. My best guess is an Apple iPhone.

I also tried QCA firmware 37. No difference.

Hi,

there will always be combos of FW/drv version that will/not work. this can change over time back and fwd between stock and -ct code bases. -ct has been opt-in since it was merged. It would be uch better to figure out which FW works and why the driver dies. Otherwise we'll start flipping back and fwd between stock/-ct versions with each update on each wmac silicon / arch combo constantly.
