Thanks Peter. I did figure that out yesterday. Symlink seemed to work. I also pulled in https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/blob/master/brcm/brcmfmac4345... as well.
Well you should do one of those or the other but not both.
I did run into issues with wifi, but I'd like to test when the upstream is patched.
It literally just symlinks them together, I've sent the patch and it's been ACKed, so should be in the next release in a week or so.

Taking a stab at fedora 32 on a R Pi 3A+. Looks like there's missing firmware. Based on the FAQ the wifi should work out of the box but it doesn't seem to be the case:
[ 43.501327] brcmfmac mmc1:0001:1: Direct firmware load for brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.raspberrypi,3-model-a-plus.txt failed with error -2 [ 43.501632] brcmfmac mmc1:0001:1: Direct firmware load for brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.txt failed with error -2
I do not see this file in: /usr/lib/firmware/brcm. I do see one for model b: "brcmfmac43455-sdio.raspberrypi,3-model-b-plus.txt"
So that's an admission, must have missed that when we pushed the NVRAM upstream. The NVRAM is device specific, it's not really a firmware, but we know all the 3A module is the same as the B+ so you can actually just do:
ln -s /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.raspberrypi,3-model-b-plus.txt /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.raspberrypi,3-model-a-plus.txt
I'll organise a PR for upstream to fix that.
Used the following for firmware: arm-image-installer --image=Fedora-Server-armhfp-32-1.6-sda.raw.xz --target=rpi3 --media=/dev/sdf
Let me know what additional info you might need, and I'm happy to test. _______________________________________________ arm mailing list -- arm@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to arm-leave@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/arm@lists.fedoraproject.org
