[linux-firmware] Raspberry pi 4 wlan0 is missing

[Verequies]

Yeah definitely, fresh install just only kept that one .txt file. I'm just setting up a hotspot at the moment but that definitely brought back the interface for me. I mean deleting all the txt files works for me too, so I'm not entirely sure. But its something to do with those.

I don't understand. Can you post the output of:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pacman -Qkk linux-firmware')

[Verequies]

Here you go, I've just removed the following:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '

[Verequies]

Yeah, my bad. I specified the wrong file that I kept earlier.
I would report this bug, but I'm unsure how. I checked the Raspberry Pi OS earlier and I couldn't find those txt files in the '/lib/firmware/brcm' directory also.

I tried to follow instruction at https://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv ... berry-pi-4, but the RPi does not boot.
Probably the same issue as viewtopic.php?f=67&t=15066.

So I switched to the linux-raspberrypi4 kernel instead of the generic one using:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
sed -i "s/mmcblk1p1/mmcblk0p1/g" /etc/fstab
pacman -S linux-raspberrypi4 linux-raspberrypi4-headers raspberrypi-firmware firmware-raspberrypi raspberrypi-bootloader-x
')
Device boots up fine, but I have no wireless (wlan0) interface, only ethernet and loopback.

Did I do the switch correctly? The "raspberrypi-firmware" and "firmware-raspberrypi" feel a bit weird.
Any idea?

Thanks.

ARMv7 - Raspberry Pi 4 B

Hello,
I installed ARMv7 on my Raspberry Pi 4 B a week or so ago. I got it installed, including connecting via WiFi, setting it up with the cli utiliy wifi-menu then enabling it on boot with
sudo systemctl enable netctl-auto@wlan0.service
Yesterday I ran an update and did some work on it.

Today, I turned it on but it's unable to connect via WiFi.

I ran ifconfig, which only returns the eth0 and loopback interface
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 192.168.1.104 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255
...

lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING> mtu 65536
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0
...
')

ls /sys/class/net returns this:
eth0 lo

I thought it might have been a hardware failure so I wiped Arch and installed Raspberry Pi OS. It connected fine via WiFi

I still have the tar image from when I installed Arch a week or so ago, so I reused that to reinstall Arch on my SD card. Initially it connected fine via WiFi after running menu-wifi and enabling netctl. But when I ran:
pacman -Syu
to update and then rebooted, I ran into the same problem with the missing wireless interface.

As it seemed to break after an update, I wonder if it's related to a bug the latest version of the firmware or something else?

Would greatly appreciate some help. Let me know if I can provide any more information.

Many thanks
Josh

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('graysky', 'S')omeone eneeds to report the breakage upstream in any case.

So I have in total three Raspberry Pi 4:s running Archlinux ARMv7. They are all connected to WiFi, and today i updated them all (sudo pacman -Syu) and rebooted...

None of them want's to come back online now... I have no way to connect these devices through ethernet.

What can I do apart from wiping the micro sd cards...?

Are anyone else having these issues?
