You didn't attach a complete log so it's hard to tell. ath10k tends to print a few messages that may look like an error but aren't (there's a fallback mechanism for finding firmware files which is overly verbose). @Perry: You need to rename the firmware-4.bin_WLAN.RM.2.0-00180-QCARMSWPZ-1 to firmware-4.bin in case you merely mirrored the github repo. @Kalle: I think it'd be very useful to maintain ath10k-firmware in a way so that it is easier to the uninitiated to `git clone` it into /lib/firmware, e.g. maintain firmware-X.bin symlinks in each QCAxxx/hw.y/ to the latest one.
