rpi4 missing wlan0 device

01 April 2023, 14:45:29

I notice that my rpi4 running 6.1.21-3-rpi-ARTIX-RPI4 doesn't seem to have any wifi device.

rfkill list shows no devices

I checked and with an earlier kernel 5.15.88-1-rpi-ARTIX-RPI4 I do see wlan0.

I suppose I need to change either /boot/config.txt or /boot/cmdline.txt, or load a module.

I suppose it should be same on ALARM, rpi4 kernel configs is same as there. At the same time everything is OK with 6.2.8-1-ARTIX (linux-aarch64 kernel)

I've never really understood the uboot mechanisms. The manjaro system I have is running local/linux-rpi4 6.1.16-2 and that does have a wlan0

$ rfkill list
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: no

the config.txt seems similar to the one I have for armtix

I tested and alarm with kernel 6.2.81-1 does have have the wireless devices.

I re-installed the raspberrypi-bootloader package from alarm. I don't know if we have that as an armtix package. The alarm repo is dated 20230330-1-any and claims

replaces=('raspberrypi-firmware-bootloader' 'raspberrypi-bootloader-x' 'raspberrypi-firmware-bootloader-x')

I have linux-rpi 6.1.21-3 which I assume is up to date.

I compared files in /boot/broadcom with the manjaro files in /boot and the bcm files do seem to match except for those which probably don't matter eg

Only in /boot/broadcom/: bcm2710-rpi-2-b.dtb
Only in /boot/broadcom/: bcm2710-rpi-zero-2-w.dtb
Only in /boot/broadcom/: bcm2711-rpi-cm4-io.dtb
Only in /boot/broadcom/: bcm2711-rpi-cm4s.dtb
Only in /boot/broadcom/: bcm2837-rpi-3-a-plus.dtb
Only in /boot/broadcom/: bcm2837-rpi-3-b.dtb
Only in /boot/broadcom/: bcm2837-rpi-3-b-plus.dtb
Only in /boot/broadcom/: bcm2837-rpi-cm3-io3.dtb
Only in /boot/broadcom/: bcm2837-rpi-zero-2-w.dtb

I compared the kernel configs for manjaro and armtix kernels. There are a lot, but those configs near CONFIG_WIRELESS=y look the same.

So I don't know where the difference manjaro to armtix is. If I switch to the generic kernel I will lose compatibility with the standard raspberrypi stuff.

I think this is an armtix linux-rpi kernel issue.

I did the following experiment

1) scp manjaro:/boot/kernel8.img /boot/rpi4Image

2) rsync -a manjaro:/lib/modules/6.1.16-2-MANJARO-ARM-RPI/ /lib/modules/6.1.16-2-MANJARO-ARM-RPI

3) rsync -a manjaro:/lib/modules/extramodules-6.1-rpi4/ /lib/modules/extramodules-6.1-rpi4
there is only one file, version, which contains ascii "6.1.16-2-MANJARO-ARM-RPI".

4) cp /boot/broadcom/bcm* /boot/

effectively I switched to using the manjaro kernel and modules. I didn't change my /boot/{cmdline,config}.txt files.
Amazingly the result works and now I see this

$ rfkill list

I can supply the various kernel configs if that is useful.

That's very strange. As i said, ARMtix rpi kernel config only differs from ALARM one by default hostname. There could be an issue caused by different toolchain versions (ALARM uses older gcc, binutils and glibc) but doubt this can really affect kernel modules so much
Do you have anything interesting in dmesg with different kernels?

The manjaro dmesg has an error like this

The failing armtix dmesg has a different error

However I have no real idea what I am supposed to look for and the ordering is obviously different. The wireless driver is supposed to be (or part of) brcmfmac looking at all the lines with that in I see this

Try to move this file somewhere else, so that it can't be found. IIRC there was some issue with rpi wireless firmware 2 years ago, it was solved this way

I tried removal of that firmware file and the error still happens. Worse doing that made the manjaro kernel fail to provide wlan0.

FWIW that file is a link that points at ../cypress/cyfmac43455-sdio.bin.xz

After messing around with armtix booting for a while I re-installed latest linux-rpi I see this strangeness wwhich might have some effect on the kernel. Is there something amiss with mkinitcpio?

This message appeared after some update and there a patch in ALARM which fixes it. However, it doesn't seem to be a real problem: all my devices work fine with, even those which really need some drivers from initramfs to get real root filesystem

thanks;

I have no real luck trying to figure out what's missing from the armtix kernel/modules. I found that the manjaro mainline kernel also works (has wlan0) for for me ie their kernel8 --> /boot/rpi4Image && /lib/modules/{6.2.3-2-MANJARO-ARM-RPI,extramodules-6.2-rpi4-mainline}. I tried loading every not loaded module from manjaro's /sys/modules in armtix linux-rpi, but still didn't get a working wifi.

FWIW these are the modules that can be loaded in manjaro, but not armtix

acpi
acpi_power_meter
battery
button
crct10dif_cei2c_hid
efi_pstore
crct10dif_ce
i2c_hid
iscsi_ibft
pnp
processor
thermal

FWIW I switched my armtix rpi4's to use the manjaro kernel pkg, but compiled myself to change the name and the boot image.

The original code is here https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/packages/core/linux-rpi4-mainline.git
