Of course, if people would prefer the OLPC version to supersede the
ones currently in the linux-firmware tree, I can do that instead.  I
don't know what versions of sd8686.bin and usb8388.bin are actually in
the tree.  I also don't know if the OLPC versions improve or make things
worse for people using those chips on non-OLPC systems.

[PATCH linux-firmware] libertas: add OLPC libertas blobs

[Andres Salomon]

These blobs are released by the OLPC project, and drive Marvell
libertas chips.  OLPC hardware has additional features and quirks,
which makes special firmware necessary.

The firmware was downloaded from
http://dev.laptop.org/pub/firmware/libertas/.

This overlaps with a submission I made the other day (of usb8388
firmware), sorry for the lack of coordination there.

I don't think the OLPC hardware has any quirks or special features
that mean it requires special firmware.

However, for the usb8388 we do use a special firmware developed by
Cozybit (not Marvell), the one you submitted, which has its own
versioning scheme. The main difference is that it includes mesh
support. I am pretty sure it would run on any usb8388 but OLPC is the
only user of the hardware anyway. See
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/libertas-dev/2010-November/003330.html
and the rest of the discussion.

As for sd8686, I thought our firmware was standard, from Marvell, and
simply a newer version of what is in linux-firmware. Do you have
reason to believe otherwise?

Thanks,
Daniel

Ah, sorry, I didn't know you were on top of this.  I'm wanting to
kill off the Debian OLPC-specific libertas package, and finally found
some time to put together a pull request.

I was just playing it safe.  I have changelogs for the usb8388 firmware
releases, but not for sd8686.  I'll defer to you for XO-1.5 stuff.

I'm more interested in the lbtf stuff anyways, as I don't see much use
for the on-chip mesh.

For usb8388 I don't think we really care which firmware is default since
OLPC was about the only consumer of that chip that I've ever heard of.

For the other firmware I periodically trawled Marvell's Extranet and
grabbed latest firmware from there.  If you guys have a newer micro
version of the firmware then great, push it.  Latest I have access to
for 8686 is SD-8686-FEDORA26FC6-SYSKT-9.70.20.p0-26409.p64 so if you've
got something newer great.

Looks like the one on dev.l.o is older (9.70.7.p0).  Shall I redo the
pull request a) ignoring sd8686, b) replacing usb8388 v5 with the OLPC
version, and c) including both thinfirm blobs as well, then?

That sounds good to me. The only thing I'm a bit unsure about is the
usb8388 thing. If you replace usb8388_v5.bin with the latest OLPC one,
we would like to have that at the top of the list, higher than
usb8388_v9, so that OLPC firmware gets preferred. That might be a bit
strange. On the other hand, if usb8388_olpc_v5.bin is at the top its
less odd, since it looks like a separate branch.

The other changes look fine, and we will figure out sd8686 and send a
later pull request for that. Dan, can you send over
SD-8686-FEDORA26FC6-SYSKT-9.70.20.p0-26409.p64, and any release
notes/changelog you may have? I wasn't aware of this release.

Thanks,
Daniel

Also, could you take a look and see if there is some kind of archived
changelog or release history that would link the 3 firmware versions
in question to the same release stream? If it seems obvious that one
follows on from the other it would avoid me having to pester Marvell
about this.

The 3 versions in question are:

1. The version in linux-firmware
$Id: sd8686-B0, RF868X, FP4, 9.70.3.p36 $
RC: , yhou, 2008/09/08, 19:11:06
md5sum: 20208583d441d1ecd7a05d5e5cda5856

2. The OLPC version, shipped in Fedora:
$Id: sd8686-B0, RF868X, FP4, 9.70.7.p0 $
RC: , yhou, 2008/11/11, 13:10:01
md5sum: b4f8be61e19780a14836f146c538c5dd

3. The latest version that you've found
SD-8686-FEDORA26FC6-SYSKT-9.70.20.p0-26409.p64

Maybe someone can add firmware for CF8381 from here 
http://www.hackchina.com/en/cont/36429 . I dunno how legal it'd be though. I 
discussed it with Marvell folks (that someone apparently leaked such thing) and 
they didn't even seem too interested. :-/

(if I converted cf8381.h and helper.h, it works with CF8381 in my PalmTX)

What version is that firmware?  I can legitimately push
cf8381_B0_W8015FP1 version 5.11.9.p0 (dated 2006-05-15) into
linux-firmware.

Until the firmware gets pulled, please see:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~dcbw/linux-firmware/commit/?id=84be6f96075541a96ca6c9d2b736f6a03f47b0a5

and let me know if that helper & image work with your hardware.
Assuming your hardware has an 8015RF of course.

I don't recall, but if you can push it, please do.

Can you also get some V5 firmware for CF8305 ? Thanks!

I unfortunately don't have access to anything back that far...  just
8381.

I guess I misunderstood.  I thought since dcbw was saying OLPC was the
only real user of the chip, so it didn't matter; in my mind, that
mean just replace v5 (since it's a superset of functionality
anyways).

It looks like you're replacing the generic Marvell v5 firmware with
the OLPC-forked version. Technically these are independent branches,
so it would make more sense to have the OLPC one separately e.g.
usb8388_olpc_v5.bin.
