This patch restores the old behavior that read
the chip_id on the QCA988x before resetting the
chip. This needs to be done in this order since
the unsupported QCA988x AR1A chips fall off the
bus when resetted. Otherwise the next MMIO Op
after the reset causes a BUS ERROR and panic.

Looks fine. For the time being. Have you looked any further to
actually support this chip? It seems warm reset is causing bus errors,
and cold reset goes through without crash.
Firmware gets loaded but is stuck at receiving control response, most
likely because of htc packet length or response message length.

Hi Kalle

According to this very old post
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/ath10k/2013-July/000021.html
seems like you've been misinformed on amount of these cards that were
put out in the market.

At least digipart only have >40000 units in stocks
https://www.digipart.com/part/QCA9880-AR1A and other retailers
probably few thousands more.

With that large amount of cards I think it is justified to request
firmware support for the chip. And probably a lot easier to make few
firmware modifications than go hacking a bunch of API calls so it
works with v2 firmware.

I made some modifications to driver and it differentiates properly
between v1 and v2 card, this is the current status bootlog:

I'm very surprised that QCA9880 hw1.0 boards are still available, after
six years. Did you confirm that it really is hw1.0 and not just some
mixup with hardware ids or something like that? For example, you could
try the old ath10k and old hw1.0 firmware to see if it works.

But if it's really is hw1.0 I doubt there will be any support for that.
I recommend to avoid hw1.0 altogether.

Print on the chip clearly says QCA9880-AR1A. ID same as for v2 - 003C.

> old hw1.0 firmware to see if it works.

I don't know which fw blob version that is. I could not find it
online. All files are v2 related.

That would be too bad, even worse when you find out that
qca-wifi-10.2.4.58.1 driver fails to load firmware too. The only one
that works is qca-wifi that comes with tp-link firmware, some very
early version 10.0.108 or somtehing like that that has no available
sources..

I'll drop this as there's no plan to support QCA988X hw1.0.

Maybe the whole subject on QCA988X cards should be re-evaluated? Since
at this point it's not for certain whether the card is difficult to
support or whether it is damaged.
There was at least one report of QCA988X hw2.0 failing in an identical
way as QCA988X hw1.0. In case it turns out to be hw damage, a fallback
driver mechanism could provide extended lifetime for these cards. A
link to the hw2.0 failure:

Kalle,

I'm surprised about this. And your justification
"no plan to support QCA988X hw1.0" seems very odd in this context,
because this patch does not add any support for the QCA988X hw1.0.

But, I could see how the mails/replies from Tom Psyborg derailed the
topic here. Though, I'm not sure if this is the case or not.

So let set the record straight and show you the result of having that
patch applied and load ath10k_pci with a QCA9880 v1 AR1A:

[ 1491.622282] ath10k_pci 0000:00:00.0: device 003c with chip_id 043200ff isn't supported

(System is all good!)

And without the patch:

As for why this patch was coded this way. It's because this patch follows MichaƂ Kazior
recommendation of how to handle this card in his reply to a previous thread 
"ath10k: reset chip after supported check" regarding the same issue. He did check for a
QCA988X Hardware and only then perform the SOC_CHIP_ID_ADDRESS read.

I do hope this helped "to clear things up" since I did not add support
for the QCA9880 v1 AR1A here and don't plan to do so.

No wonder my comment was odd, it seems I had completely misunderstood :)
I assumed this is for preparation in adding QCA988X hw1.0 support, which
is clearly wrong.

Thanks, this clear for me now. I added this back to my queue and clarify
the commit log a bit.

Hey Lamperter, I'm sorry if you feel like I hijacked this thread but
it was in an obvious attempt to prove more can be done than just
returning unsupported message.

However, as the company itself is unwilling to provide firmware and
everybody mention this chip variant in such a negative context there
are obviously some internal reasons to keep it unsupported with
silicon bug or two being used as an excuse. Most chips have some hw
bugs and workarounds for the same are available, but this didn't
result in dropping support for their drivers. So, you can go with this
change, but it won't be that useful or required as few others who
switch to different card in their router won't need it. For the rest
of us 700Mbps with factory TP-Link firmware will suffice.
