Hi Pete,
hello - i've got an intel device currently working under iwm:
iwm0: <Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless AC 9560> mem 0xdd338000-0xdd33bfff at
device 20.3 on pci0
iwm0: hw rev 0x310, fw ver 34.3125811985.0, address
after building CURRENT on the 28th and attempting to load if_iwlwifi via
/boot/loader.conf i get these errors when the firmware tries to load:
I am sorry; I hadn't fully realised; if you load the driver from
loader you'd have to load the fimrware manually as well as otherwise
there's no file system yet to load it from.
Problem is the loader.conf syntax doesn't allow you to say,
foo-bar-baz_load="YES".
FWIW you can work around this, but it's ugly. We offer ${module}_name
to specify the actual name of a module, so:
my_fw_with_dashes_load="YES"
my_fw_with_dashes_name="my-fw-with-dashes"
Oh, cool. Thank you! I didn't know that worked generally :-)
A lot better than any crude exec hacks I'd have used old-school way.
