Instead of aborting country code setup in firmware, use ISO3166 country code and 0 rev as fallback, when country_codes mapping table is not configured. This fallback saves the country_codes table setup for recent brcmfmac chipsets/firmwares, which just use ISO3166 code and require no revision number.This patch breaks wireless support on RockPro64. At least the access point is not usable, station mode not tested. brcmfmac: brcmf_c_preinit_dcmds: Firmware: BCM4359/9 wl0: Mar 6 2017 10:16:06 version 9.87.51.7 (r686312) FWID 01-4dcc75d9 Reverting this patch makes the access point show up again with linux-5.14 .
Sorry for breaking your device! So it sounds like you do not have country_codes configured for your BCM4359/9 device, while it needs particular `rev` setup for the ccode you are testing with. It was "working" likely because you have a static `ccode` and `regrev` setting in nvram file. But roaming to a different region will mostly get you a broken WiFi support. Is it possible to set up the country_codes for your device to get it work properly? Shawn
