3 years ago A little more firmware is required not from windows partition like a630_sqe.fw ,a630_gmu.fw for gpu and *.jsn files for audio. Plus sum newer versions of ath firmware. I made a poor mans attempt at all that plus venus decoder and IPA firmware. This was a ruff but working draft forked from Celliwig before he had added the venus stuff. https://github.com/bm16ton/yoga-c630-linux-kernel/blob/master/C630/yoga_fw_extract.sh

Why extract older a630 firmware when there is newer one in upstream?

3 years ago I changed the script to get a630_sqe.fw from upstream. Tho this script needs to be rewritten, celliwig is considerably better at scripting then me. Maybe I can work with him on a fw script that gets everything. Or two one for windows partition and another for online or maybe one script with options

3 years ago @rhenwood-arm Here is the firmware list I think we need to retrieve from Windows partition.
# GPU zap-shader

# venus-5.2 video codec

# SLPI
Windows/System32/DriverStore/FileRepository/qcsubsys850.inf_arm64_3a2b93010ff21198/qcslpi850.mbnOther firmware files can be found in either linux-firmware repository or Linaro OBS package.
In order to get Wifi, GPU, etc working, we currently need to pull binary firmware off the Windows partition. @Celliwig has a script to do this automatically: https://github.com/Celliwig/Lenovo-Yoga-c630/tree/master/yoga_fw_extract
This Issue is to record a list of the file paths to the relevant firmware blogs on the Windows partition. Once the list is completed, an interested party could begin to pursue licensing these blobs for distribution in the Linux Kernel tree. With firmware included in the tree, the out-of-box Linux experience for these laptops can be significantly improved.
