Hello,

for over two years we have a small router project based on FreeBSD. The hardware is equipted
with a WiFi mPCIe card and reports itself to 12-STABLE/13-CURRENT as:

[...]
none2@pci0:1:0:0:       class=0x028000 card=0x00000000 chip=0x003c168c rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Qualcomm Atheros'
    device     = 'QCA986x/988x 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter'
    class      = network
    bar   [10] = type Memory, range 64, base 0xf7600000, size 2097152, enabled
[...]

The ath-driver found in recent 12-STABLE/13-CURRENT do not support this chip although it seems
very common and well supported by several Linux distributions including the OpenWRT router
project (I think that is the ath10k driver suite as far as I recall).

Thanks in adavnce,

oh
