Just chipping in here but I broke my wi-fi trying to move from iwm to iwlwifi
I'm on stable/13-n253250-308d3d6be6da on a X1 Carbon 7th gen
[~] sysctl hw.model
hw.model: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8665U CPU @ 1.90GHz
original state/config before the attempt to switch to iwlwifi:
[~] pciconf -vlV | grep -B3 network
iwm0@pci0:0:20:3: class=0x028000 rev=0x11 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x8086 device=0x9df0 subvendor=0x8086 subdevice=0x0030
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = 'Cannon Point-LP CNVi [Wireless-AC]'
class = network
--
em0@pci0:0:31:6: class=0x020000 rev=0x11 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x8086 device=0x15bd subvendor=0x17aa subdevice=0x2292
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = 'Ethernet Connection (6) I219-LM'
class = network
[~] grep iwm /var/run/dmesg.boot
[9] iwm0: <Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless AC 9560> mem 0xea238000-0xea23bfff irq 16 at device 20.3 on pci0
This was my working situation before even trying iwlwifi:
/etc/rc.conf:
# Network settings
hostname="harbinger.fritz.box"
ip6addrctl_policy="ipv6_prefer"
ipv6_privacy="YES" #NO : Use privacy address on RA-receiving IFs (RFC 4941)
wlans_iwm0="wlan0"
create_args_wlan0="regdomain ETSI country NL authmode WPA powersave"
ifconfig_wlan0="ether f8:75:a4:fa:9d:bf WPA"
/boot/loader.conf:
wlan_xauth_load="YES"
/etc/wpa-supplicant.conf:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
update_config=1
# AP scanning
ap_scan=1
country=NL
network={
ssid="foo"
psk=verylong-pre-shared-WPA-key-from-ascii-passphrase
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}
I think I remember seeing if_iwlwifi.ko being loaded alongside if_iwm.ko in
kldstat output before I started my adventure although I don't have any
reference having defined if_iwlwifi.ko anywhere so I guess that's being
pulled in as a dependency..
Please bear with me for I do not recall the exact order of my actions
(I've tried lots but unfortunately didn't write them down step by step).
First I tried the following rc.conf updates:
devmatch_blocklist="if_iwm"
wlans_iwlwifi0="wlan0"
create_args_wlan0="wlanmode sta regdomain ETSI country NL powersave"
ifconfig_wlan0="ether f8:75:a4:fa:9d:bf WPA" /* this is because wlan0
was a laggport for my lagg0 lacp setup
ifconfig_lagg0="up laggproto failover laggport em0 laggport wlan0 -tso -lro DHCP"
ifconfig_lagg0_ipv6="inet6 accept_rtadv"
I added the lines to loader.conf to make the boot verbose and capture
any iwlwifi0 related info during the boot.
When I rebooted my laptop the boot got stuck in a constant loop cycle
that kept scrolling off of the screen which I couldn't pause/cancel but
I think I saw some reference to drm-kmod
Here is the iwlwifi0 capture:

I then decided to switch back to a previous BE so I could mount the BE I was just on
to revert the rc.conf changes and rebooted again to change back to using
iwm.
To my surprise wlan0 was not created and I've been stuck in this
situation since then.
This is what I noticed from dmesg regarding wlan0:
[29] iwmbtfw: iwmbt_fw_read: open: /usr/local/share/iwmbt-firmware/ibt-17-16-1.sfi: No such file or directory
[29] iwmbtfw: main: Firmware download failed!
[29] Autoloading module: ng_ubt
[29] ifconfig: SIOCIFCREATE2 (wlan0): Device not configured
[29] ifconfig: interface wlan0 does not exist
[29] Starting wpa_supplicant.
[29] /etc/rc.d/wpa_supplicant: WARNING: failed to start wpa_supplicant
[29] Starting Network: wlan0.
[29] ifconfig: interface wlan0 does not exist
I then tried to move forward again by manually switching from iwm to
iwlwifi seeing if I could at least create wlan0 from the iwlwifi0 parent
device.
I've tried using devctl as follows:
devctl detach pci0:0:20:3
devctl set driver pci0:0:20:3 iwlwifi
Running 'pciconf -vlV | grep -B3 network' did confirm iwlwifi0 was set
instead of iwm:
iwlwifi0@pci0:0:20:3: class=0x028000 rev=0x11 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x8086 device=0x9df0 subvendor=0x8086 subdevice=0x0030
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = 'Cannon Point-LP CNVi [Wireless-AC]'
class = network
I had to attempt several kldunload and kldload actions before iwlwifi
would show up for 'sysctl net.wlan.devices'.
I then created wlan0 by running:
ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev iwlwifi0 (which worked).
ifconfig wlan0 coiuntry NL
ifconfig wlan0 authmode WPA
At this point I think I ran: sh /etc/rc.d/netif start wlan0 and using
wpa_cli -i wlan0 status and scan_results to check.
I did see my ssid listed but wpa_cli reported authentication failures.
This is where I decided to take a break and come back to it later to
write this email
I just can't figure out why reverting back to iwm hasn't restored wi-fi
connectivity.
Sorry for the long winded email.
I'm sure I performed even more steps but can't put them in the correct
order.
