Heisath Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Hi, this is not really a problem but a thing I stumbled upon a few weeks ago, when compiling armbian myself. For reasons unknown to me, when I check the pcie support option in the kernel settings, the ath10k pci driver (as used for wle600vx for example) cannot be loaded anymore. The armbian tries to load various firmware files, always falling back till the last one. Then booting continues w/o ath10k so no wifi.... I never got around the function of the pcie feature anyway, both mpcie slots are fully operational with only pci enabled in the kernel config. Did I misunderstand this menu option?

Looks like it is responsible for PCI devices with class 0x0604 (PCIe port), but not all PCIe host controllers depend on this option. And its description is quite interesting too: https://lwn.net/Articles/116311/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
