Bringing shikra WCN3988 PMU support and pwrseq-based BT/WiFi power sequencing (WCN39xx and WCN7850
families) in line with upstream.

Included commits

  1. FROMLIST: arm64: dts: qcom: shikra: Add WCN3988 PMU and fix WiFi/BT supply routing
    Adds the wcn3988-pmu node, routes bluetooth/wifi supplies through PMU
    child regulators, adds sw_ctrl pinctrl and bluetooth compatible to the
    shared dtsi, and fixes the wifi firmware-name to "shikra" across all
    EVK variants.
    Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260714-shikra-dt-m1-v6-10-bee265d3499b@oss.qualcomm.com/

  2. UPSTREAM: regulator: dt-bindings: qcom,wcn3990-pmu: describe PMUs on WCN39xx
    Adds the DT schema describing the on-chip PMU present on WCN3990 and
    similar WiFi/BT chips.
    Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260106-wcn3990-pwrctl-v2-1-0386204328be@oss.qualcomm.com

  3. UPSTREAM: power: sequencing: qcom-wcn: add support for WCN39xx
    Implements power sequencing support for the WCN39xx generation of WCN
    chips, which (unlike later devices) have no separate enable GPIO lines.
    Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260106-wcn3990-pwrctl-v2-5-0386204328be@oss.qualcomm.com

  4. UPSTREAM: Bluetooth: qca: enable pwrseq support for WCN39xx devices
    Implements pwrseq support for the WCN39xx family (simple PMU spreading
    voltages over internal rails), in addition to the existing regulator-based
    path.
    Link: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=9f168e4de5fd43766f6d49b393f445be805c1e05

  5. WORKAROUND: power: sequencing: qcom-wcn: skip BT devices without bt-enable GPIO
    Adds a bt_gpio_required flag so the bt_gpio absence check only applies
    to chips that actually require a dedicated BT enable GPIO (WCN6855,
    WCN7850). Fixes WCN3990 (no separate BT/WLAN enable pins by design)
    failing to match when bt-enable GPIO is legitimately absent from the DT.

Issues

  • Network restriction: Cannot fetch lore patch to verify diff faithfulness due to network access restrictions in the environment.
  • Authorship: Correct for FROMLIST - original author Komal Bajaj <komal.bajaj@oss.qualcomm.com> is present in Signed-off-by chain; submitter Shuai Zhang in From: field is expected and correct per FROMLIST conventions.

Verdict

Cannot fully validate diff content against lore source due to network restrictions. Commit message structure and authorship handling are correct for a FROMLIST commit.

FileStatusNotes
Multiple DT bindings, drivers, core files⚠️Large squashed backport - cannot verify individual commit faithfulness

Issues

  • Squashed backport: This commit squashes 24 individual upstream commits. While the commit message documents the source commits and compatibility modifications, this makes it impossible to verify that each individual upstream commit was faithfully backported.

    Recommendation: For future backports, consider preserving individual commits where possible to maintain traceability and simplify review. If squashing is necessary, ensure the PR description contains the full mapping of upstream commits (which this PR does).

  • No lore links: The commit message mentions "24 individual qcom-next commits" but does not provide lore.kernel.org links or upstream SHAs for each. The PR description should contain this mapping for full traceability.

  • Compatibility modifications documented: The commit message clearly documents two compatibility changes for qcom-6.18.y:

    1. kzalloc_obj()kzalloc() (v7.0 API not available)
    2. PCI_PWRCTRL_GENERIC vs PCI_PWRCTRL_SLOT naming

    These are legitimate and well-documented adaptations.

Verdict

Acceptable as a squashed backport with documented compatibility modifications, but traceability to individual upstream commits is limited. Ensure PR description contains full commit mapping.

Final Summary

  1. Lore link present: No - squashed backport from 24 commits; no single lore link applicable
  2. Lore link matches PR commits: N/A - squashed backport
  3. Upstream patch status: Upstreamed - sourced from qcom-next (which tracks mainline)
  4. PR present in qcom-next: Cannot verify - git operations timing out

Verdict

PASS - Vendor-only workaround with appropriate prefix, clear rationale, and focused implementation.

Final Summary

  1. Lore link present: No - WORKAROUND: prefix; no lore link expected or required
  2. Lore link matches PR commits: N/A - no lore link to compare against
  3. Upstream patch status: N/A - vendor-only change, not posted upstream
  4. PR present in qcom-next: Not checked - WORKAROUND: vendor-only commit

Overall PR Verdict: ❌ FAIL

Critical Issues Requiring Fix

  1. Commit 2/4 - Authorship mismatch (CRITICAL):
    • The UPSTREAM: commit has incorrect authorship
    • From: field shows Shuai Zhang but must be Dmitry Baryshkov (original upstream author)
    • Fix:git commit --amend --author="Dmitry Baryshkov <dmitry.baryshkov@oss.qualcomm.com>"

Recommendations

  1. Commit 1/4 - FROMLIST verification:

  2. Commit 2/4 - Cleanup:

    • Remove Change-Id: I0c0bf02fd3709bab515a24bf6699344fa09122c5 (Gerrit artifact)
  3. Commit 3/4 - Traceability:

    • Ensure PR description contains full mapping of all 24 upstream commits with SHAs or lore links
    • Consider preserving individual commits in future backports for easier review
  4. General:

    • Verify qcom-next presence manually for all commits (git operations timed out in this environment)

Action Required

Do not merge until commit 2/4 authorship is corrected. The authorship mismatch violates kernel contribution guidelines for UPSTREAM: commits.

❌ checkpatch

Root cause: Two commits have style violations that need fixing.

Failure details:

Commit 2/4 (9ebbb869cbf1 - "UPSTREAM: Bluetooth: qca: enable pwrseq support for WCN39xx devices"):

ERROR: Remove Gerrit Change-Id's before submitting upstream

+	struct mutex list_lock;
CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis (×5 instances)
CHECK: Unnecessary parentheses (×2 instances)

Fix:

  1. Commit 2/4 - Remove the Change-Id: line:

    git rebase -i <base_sha># mark commit 9ebbb869cbf1 as 'edit'
    git commit --amend
    # Remove the "Change-Id: I0c0bf02fd3709bab515a24bf6699344fa09122c5" line

    git commit --amend
    # Wrap line 21: "1. kzalloc_obj() -> kzalloc(): kzalloc_obj() was introduced in v7.0 and is"# to fit within 75 characters
    git rebase --continue

    The DT binding warnings are acceptable for backport commits that squash multiple upstream commits. The CHECK-level issues (alignment, parentheses, mutex comment) are style suggestions and can be addressed if desired, but are not blockers.

Reproduce locally:

./scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict --ignore FILE_PATH_CHANGES --git cf2725e2d166..32b6e7645497

❌ check-patch-compliance

Root cause: Four commits have compliance issues with upstream links, author attribution, and required prefixes.

Failure details:

Commit 1/4 - FROMLIST: arm64: dts: qcom: shikra: Add WCN3988 PMU and fix WiFi/BT supply routing:

Change is different from the one mentioned in Link
Author mismatch:
Original author: Komal Bajaj <komal.bajaj@oss.qualcomm.com>
Commit author : Shuai Zhang <shuai.zhang@oss.qualcomm.com>

Commit 2/4 - UPSTREAM: Bluetooth: qca: enable pwrseq support for WCN39xx devices:

No 'Link' found in commit message

Commit 3/4 - Backport: PCIe M.2 connector support and WCN7850 BT integration:

Commit summary does not start with a required prefix

Commit 4/4 - WORKAROUND: power: sequencing: qcom-wcn: skip BT devices without bt-enable GPIO:

Commit summary does not start with a required prefix

Fix:

  1. Commit 1/4 - Author mismatch and content difference:

    • If Shuai Zhang is adapting Komal Bajaj's patch, fix the author:
      git rebase -i <base_sha># mark commit as 'edit'
      git commit --amend --author="Komal Bajaj <komal.bajaj@oss.qualcomm.com>"
      git rebase --continue
    • Verify the content difference is intentional adaptation (e.g., context changes for qcom-6.18.y). If so, document the adaptation in the commit message.
  2. Commit 2/4 - Missing Link: tag:

    • Add the upstream commit link:
      git rebase -i <base_sha># mark commit as 'edit'
      git commit --amend
      # Add: Link: https://git.kernel.org/linus/9f168e4de5fd43766f6d49b393f445be805c1e05
      git rebase --continue
  3. Commit 3/4 - Invalid prefix Backport::

    • Change to BACKPORT: (uppercase, with colon):
      git rebase -i <base_sha># mark commit as 'edit'
      git commit --amend -m "BACKPORT: PCIe M.2 connector support and WCN7850 BT integration"
      git rebase --continue
  4. Commit 4/4 - WORKAROUND: prefix not recognized:

    • This is a known checker limitation. The check-patch-compliance script only accepts FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, and BACKPORT: prefixes. However, WORKAROUND: is a valid prefix for the qcom tree (see tag-check below). The checker will always fail for WORKAROUND: commits — this is expected and can be ignored.

Reproduce locally:

# For commit 1/4 content mismatch:
b4 am --single-message -C -l -3 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260608-shikra-dt-m1-v4-10-2114300594a6@oss.qualcomm.com/ -o /tmp/out
git format-patch -1 a2f1dde88df4 --stdout > /tmp/pr-commit.patch
diff <(awk '/^diff/,/^--$/' /tmp/pr-commit.patch | grep -E '^[+-][^+-]') \
<(awk '/^diff/,/^--$/' /tmp/out/*.mbx | grep -E '^[+-][^+-]')

❌ tag-check

Root cause: Two commits do not start with a required subject-line prefix tag.

Since the target branch is qcom-6.18.y (not qcom-next or qcom-next-staging), every commit must start with one of the required prefixes: FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:, QCLINUX:, PENDING:, or WORKAROUND:.

Failure details:

Commit 3/4:

Subject: Backport: PCIe M.2 connector support and WCN7850 BT integration

❌ Uses lowercase Backport: instead of uppercase BACKPORT:

Commit 4/4:

Subject: WORKAROUND: power: sequencing: qcom-wcn: skip BT devices without bt-enable GPIO

✅ Actually PASSES tag-check — WORKAROUND: is a valid prefix.

Verdict: Only commit 3/4 fails tag-check.

Fix:

git rebase -i <base_sha># mark commit 3/4 (dab2b98e4497) as 'edit'
git commit --amend -m "BACKPORT: PCIe M.2 connector support and WCN7850 BT integration"# Keep the rest of the commit message unchanged
git rebase --continue

Verdict

3 blockers must be fixed before merge:

  1. checkpatch ERROR — Remove Change-Id: line from commit 2/4
  2. check-patch-compliance — Fix author mismatch in commit 1/4, add Link: to commit 2/4, change Backport:BACKPORT: in commit 3/4
  3. tag-check — Change Backport:BACKPORT: in commit 3/4

Non-blockers (can be addressed optionally):

  • checkpatch WARNINGs (DT binding split, long commit line, Kconfig help text)
  • checkpatch CHECKs (alignment, parentheses, mutex comment)
  • check-patch-compliance failure on commit 4/4 (WORKAROUND: prefix) — known checker limitation, can be ignored

pwrseq-qcom-wcn.cFAIL - 130 insertions not present in qcom-next commit 9f168e4de5fd (which only touches hci_qca.c)

Issues

  1. Missing Link: tag - UPSTREAM: prefix requires a Link: https://lore.kernel.org/... or Link: https://git.kernel.org/... pointing to the merged upstream commit
  2. Authorship violation - From: field must match the original upstream author for UPSTREAM: commits. Use git commit --amend --author="Dmitry Baryshkov <dmitry.baryshkov@oss.qualcomm.com>"
  3. Content mismatch - PR commit contains 243 insertions across 3 files, but qcom-next commit 9f168e4de5fd only has 18+8 lines in 1 file (hci_qca.c). The DT binding YAML and pwrseq-qcom-wcn.c changes appear to be from a different commit or series
  4. Gerrit tag present - Change-Id: I0c0bf02fd3709bab515a24bf6699344fa09122c5 should be removed before submission

Verdict

FAIL - Multiple critical issues: no upstream link, authorship mismatch, and content does not match the qcom-next commit with the same subject. This appears to be a conflation of multiple upstream commits into one.

Recommendation

Split this commit into separate commits matching the upstream structure:

  1. One commit for the Bluetooth driver changes (hci_qca.c) - use original author Dmitry Baryshkov, add Link: to lore/upstream
  2. One commit for the DT binding (qcom,wcn3990-pmu.yaml) - find the correct upstream commit, use original author, add Link:
  3. One commit for the pwrseq driver changes (pwrseq-qcom-wcn.c) - find the correct upstream commit, use original author, add Link:

Final Summary

  1. Lore link present: No - UPSTREAM: prefix requires Link: tag pointing to merged upstream commit
  2. Lore link matches PR commits: N/A - no link to compare against
  3. Upstream patch status: Partially upstreamed - hci_qca.c changes found in qcom-next 9f168e4de5fd, but DT binding and pwrseq changes not found
  4. PR present in qcom-next: Partially - only hci_qca.c portion found as 9f168e4de5fd with different author

  3. Upstream patch status: N/A - vendor-only change, not posted upstream
  4. PR present in qcom-next: Yes - found as 060e2bdc4598 (same author, same date)

Overall PR Verdict

FAIL - Do not merge without corrections

Critical Issues

Commit 2/3 must be fixed before merge:

  1. Add Link: tag pointing to the upstream commit(s)
  2. Fix authorship to match upstream author (Dmitry Baryshkov)
  3. Split into separate commits matching upstream structure (appears to conflate multiple upstream commits)
  4. Remove Gerrit Change-Id: tag

Commit 1/3 cannot be fully validated:

  • Network restrictions prevent lore patch fetch and diff comparison
  • Commit message structure is correct for FROMLIST
  • Manual review recommended to verify diff matches lore v4 revision

Recommendation

Immediate action required:

  1. Rework commit 2/3 to properly attribute and link upstream sources
  2. Consider splitting commit 2/3 into multiple commits matching upstream structure
  3. Remove Change-Id: tag from commit 2/3
  4. For commit 1/3: manually verify the diff matches the lore v4 patch at the linked URL

After fixes:

  • Re-submit PR with corrected commits
  • Ensure all UPSTREAM: commits have proper Link: tags and authorship

❌ checkpatch

Root cause: Commit 25b7a28 contains a Gerrit Change-Id: tag that must be removed before upstream submission, and includes DT binding changes that should be in a separate patch.

Failure details:

Commit 25b7a2837fe1 ("UPSTREAM: Bluetooth: qca: enable pwrseq support for WCN39xx devices")
ERROR: Remove Gerrit Change-Id's before submitting upstream
#12: Change-Id: I0c0bf02fd3709bab515a24bf6699344fa09122c5
WARNING: DT binding docs and includes should be a separate patch. See: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.rst
25b7a2837fe144f17b7cc9ea4e56bc58669311e4 total: 1 errors, 1 warnings, 0 checks, 361 lines checked

Fix:

  1. Remove the Gerrit Change-Id:

    git rebase -i e8d06c707464437c26e5ad72fe052c57253b552a
    # mark commit 25b7a2837fe1 as 'edit'
    git commit --amend
    # Remove the line: Change-Id: I0c0bf02fd3709bab515a24bf6699344fa09122c5
    git rebase --continue
  2. DT binding warning: This is a style warning suggesting that the DT binding YAML (Documentation/devicetree/bindings/regulator/qcom,wcn3990-pmu.yaml) should be in a separate patch from the driver changes. However, since this commit is marked UPSTREAM: (already merged upstream), this is acceptable as-is — the upstream commit included both, and we're maintaining fidelity to the upstream patch.

Reproduce locally:

./scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict --ignore FILE_PATH_CHANGES --git e8d06c707464437c26e5ad72fe052c57253b552a..7040201f125a39fea2e018a1c558770140b3703b

❌ check-patch-compliance

Root cause: Three commits have compliance issues: content/author mismatch for commit a2f1dde, missing Link for commit 25b7a28, and invalid prefix for commit d1554ba.

Failure details:

Commit 1: a2f1dde ("FROMLIST: arm64: dts: qcom: shikra: Add WCN3988 PMU and fix WiFi/BT supply routing")

Change is different from the one mentioned in Link
Author mismatch:
Original author: Komal Bajaj <komal.bajaj@oss.qualcomm.com>
Commit author : Shuai Zhang <shuai.zhang@oss.qualcomm.com>

Commit 2: 25b7a28 ("UPSTREAM: Bluetooth: qca: enable pwrseq support for WCN39xx devices")

No 'Link' found in commit message

Commit 3: d1554ba ("WORKAROUND: power: sequencing: qcom-wcn: skip BT devices without bt-enable GPIO")

Commit summary does not start with a required prefix

Fix:

For commit a2f1dde:

  1. Author mismatch: The commit author should match the original upstream author. Fix with:

    git rebase -i e8d06c707464437c26e5ad72fe052c57253b552a
    # mark commit a2f1dde88df4 as 'edit'
    git commit --amend --author="Komal Bajaj <komal.bajaj@oss.qualcomm.com>"
    git rebase --continue

    Keep Signed-off-by: Shuai Zhang <shuai.zhang@oss.qualcomm.com> to indicate who applied/tested the patch.

  2. Content mismatch: Fetch the upstream patch and compare:

    b4 am --single-message -C -l -3 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260608-shikra-dt-m1-v4-10-2114300594a6@oss.qualcomm.com/ -o /tmp/out
    # Compare the diff content to identify what changed

    If there are legitimate adaptations (e.g., context differences, additional fixes), document them in the commit message with a note like:

    [ shuai: adapted for <reason>, added <change> ]
    

For commit 25b7a28:
Add a Link: tag pointing to the upstream commit in Linus's tree:

git rebase -i e8d06c707464437c26e5ad72fe052c57253b552a
# mark commit 25b7a2837fe1 as 'edit'
git commit --amend
# Add before Signed-off-by:# Link: https://git.kernel.org/linus/<commit-sha>
git rebase --continue

For commit d1554ba:
The checker rejects WORKAROUND: as an invalid prefix. This is a known limitation of check-patch-compliance — it only accepts FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, and BACKPORT:. The WORKAROUND: prefix is valid for vendor-internal use but will always fail this checker. No action needed — this is expected for vendor-only workarounds.

Reproduce locally:

cd kernel-checkers
./check-patch-compliance.sh <base_sha><head_sha>

Verdict

3 blockers must be fixed before merge:

  1. BLOCKER: Remove Gerrit Change-Id: from commit 25b7a28
  2. BLOCKER: Fix author mismatch in commit a2f1dde (change author to Komal Bajaj <komal.bajaj@oss.qualcomm.com>)
  3. BLOCKER: Add Link: tag to commit 25b7a28 pointing to the upstream commit

Known limitations (acceptable):

  • Commit d1554ba will always fail check-patch-compliance due to WORKAROUND: prefix — this is expected for vendor-only patches
  • DT binding warning in commit 25b7a28 is acceptable since this is an UPSTREAM: commit maintaining fidelity to the merged upstream patch
  • Content mismatch in commit a2f1dde should be investigated and documented if legitimate adaptations were made

Issues

Commit 2/3 — Critical Issues:

  1. Author mismatch — The commit is marked UPSTREAM: but the From: field shows Shuai Zhang <shuai.zhang@oss.qualcomm.com> instead of the original author Dmitry Baryshkov <dmitry.baryshkov@oss.qualcomm.com>. For UPSTREAM: commits, authorship must be preserved.

    Fix:git commit --amend --author="Dmitry Baryshkov <dmitry.baryshkov@oss.qualcomm.com>"

  2. Missing Link tagUPSTREAM: commits must include a Link: tag pointing to either the lore.kernel.org posting or the kernel.org commit. The commit message has no such link.

    Fix: Add Link: https://lore.kernel.org/... or Link: https://git.kernel.org/... before the Signed-off-by trailers.

  3. Extra files in PR — The PR commit includes:

    • Documentation/devicetree/bindings/regulator/qcom,wcn3990-pmu.yaml (100 lines added)
    • drivers/power/sequencing/pwrseq-qcom-wcn.c (130 lines added)

    But the qcom-next commit 9f168e4de5fd only touches drivers/bluetooth/hci_qca.c.

    This indicates the PR is conflating multiple upstream commits into one. The binding file and pwrseq driver changes likely come from separate upstream commits and should be split into separate commits with their own UPSTREAM: prefixes and Link tags.

Commit 3/3 — Warning:

  1. Content mismatch with qcom-next — The PR version has significantly more changes (18 insertions, 6 deletions) than the qcom-next version (11 insertions, 1 deletion). This suggests either:

    • The PR includes additional changes not in qcom-next, or
    • The qcom-next commit was updated after the PR was created

    Manual diff comparison recommended.


Verdict

❌ FAIL — Do not merge without corrections

Commit 2/3 has critical authorship and attribution issues that violate kernel contribution standards:

  • Wrong author for an UPSTREAM: commit
  • Missing Link tag required for UPSTREAM: prefix
  • Multiple upstream commits conflated into one (binding + driver changes)

Required actions:

  1. Split commit 2/3 into separate commits for each upstream source
  2. Fix authorship to match original upstream authors
  3. Add Link tags to all UPSTREAM: commits
  4. Verify commit 3/3 content matches intended qcom-next version

Final Summary

  1. Lore link present:

    • Commit 1/3: Yes — https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260608-shikra-dt-m1-v4-10-2114300594a6@oss.qualcomm.com/
    • Commit 2/3: No — missing Link tag (required for UPSTREAM prefix)
    • Commit 3/3: No — WORKAROUND prefix; no lore link expected or required
  2. Lore link matches PR commits:

    • Commit 1/3: Cannot verify — network restricted
    • Commit 2/3: N/A — no link provided
    • Commit 3/3: N/A — no lore link to compare against
  3. Upstream patch status:

    • Commit 1/3: ⏳ Decision Pending — cannot verify due to network restrictions
    • Commit 2/3: ✅ Upstreamed — merged as 9f168e4 in qcom-next (but PR commit has wrong author and extra files)

❌ check-patch-compliance

Root cause: Three distinct compliance issues across three commits.

Issue 1: Commit a2f1dde — Content mismatch and author mismatch

Failure details:

Checking commit: FROMLIST: arm64: dts: qcom: shikra: Add WCN3988 PMU and fix WiFi/BT supply routing
Change is different from the one mentioned in Link
Author mismatch:
Original author: Komal Bajaj <komal.bajaj@oss.qualcomm.com>
Commit author : Shuai Zhang <shuai.zhang@oss.qualcomm.com>

Analysis:

  • The commit has Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260608-shikra-dt-m1-v4-10-2114300594a6@oss.qualcomm.com/
  • The commit author is Shuai Zhang <shuai.zhang@oss.qualcomm.com> but the original upstream author is Komal Bajaj <komal.bajaj@oss.qualcomm.com>
  • The commit has both Signed-off-by: Komal Bajaj and Signed-off-by: Shuai Zhang, indicating Shuai picked up Komal's patch

Fix:

git rebase -i e8d06c707464437c26e5ad72fe052c57253b552a
# Mark commit a2f1dde88df4 as 'edit'
git commit --amend --author="Komal Bajaj <komal.bajaj@oss.qualcomm.com>"
git rebase --continue

Alternatively, if the content differs intentionally (e.g., local adaptations), document the changes in the commit message or consider using BACKPORT: prefix instead of FROMLIST:.

Reproduce locally:

git format-patch -1 a2f1dde88df4 --stdout > /tmp/pr-commit.patch
# Compare the two patches manually

Issue 2: Commit 8c60ecc — Missing Link tag

Failure details:

Checking commit: UPSTREAM: Bluetooth: qca: enable pwrseq support for WCN39xx devices
No 'Link' found in commit message

Analysis:

  • The commit has UPSTREAM: prefix, indicating it's merged into Linus's mainline tree
  • However, the commit message lacks a Link: tag pointing to the upstream commit or lore discussion

Fix:

git rebase -i e8d06c707464437c26e5ad72fe052c57253b552a
# Mark commit 8c60ecc9909b as 'edit'# Find the upstream commit SHA or lore link, then:
git commit --amend
# Add to the commit body (before Signed-off-by lines):# Link: https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/<upstream-sha># or# Link: https://lore.kernel.org/...
git rebase --continue

To find the upstream commit:

git log --all --grep="Bluetooth: qca: enable pwrseq support for WCN39xx" --oneline
# or search on lore.kernel.org for the subject line

Issue 3: Commit 586d36e — Invalid prefix for check-patch-compliance

Failure details:

Checking commit: WORKAROUND: power: sequencing: qcom-wcn: skip BT devices without bt-enable GPIO
Commit summary does not start with a required prefix

Analysis:

  • The commit uses WORKAROUND: prefix
  • check-patch-compliance only accepts: FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:
  • WORKAROUND: is a valid vendor-internal prefix but not accepted by the compliance checker
  • This is a known limitation of the checker — vendor-only commits with WORKAROUND:, QCLINUX:, or PENDING: prefixes will always fail this check

Fix options:

Option A (if the patch was posted upstream):

git rebase -i e8d06c707464437c26e5ad72fe052c57253b552a
# Mark commit 586d36eef71c as 'edit'
git commit --amend -m "FROMLIST: power: sequencing: qcom-wcn: skip BT devices without bt-enable GPIO"# Add Link: tag to the commit body
git rebase --continue

Option B (if this is truly a vendor-only workaround):

  • Accept that check-patch-compliance will fail for this commit
  • This is expected behavior for vendor-only changes
  • The commit is still valid for merge — the WORKAROUND: prefix is correct for vendor-internal temporary fixes

Recommendation: If this workaround is temporary and not suitable for upstream, keep the WORKAROUND: prefix and accept the compliance check failure. If it's a legitimate fix that should go upstream, post it to the mailing list and change to FROMLIST: with a Link: tag.


Verdict

3 blockers to fix before merge:

  1. checkpatch: Split commit 8c60ecc to separate DT binding from driver changes
  2. check-patch-compliance: Fix author mismatch in commit a2f1dde (change author to Komal Bajaj)
  3. check-patch-compliance: Add Link: tag to commit 8c60ecc

1 known limitation (non-blocker):

  • Commit 586d36e uses WORKAROUND: prefix, which is valid for vendor-internal use but not accepted by check-patch-compliance. This is expected for vendor-only workarounds.

…upply routing
Align with latest upstream submission by adding the wcn3988-pmu node,
routing bluetooth/wifi supplies through PMU child regulators, adding
sw_ctrl pinctrl and bluetooth compatible to the shared dtsi, and
fixing the wifi firmware-name to "shikra" across all EVK variants.

📋 Overall PR Summary

Critical Issues (Must Fix)

  1. Commit 4: Missing Link: tag
    • UPSTREAM commits MUST include Link: https://lore.kernel.org/... or upstream commit URL
    • Add: Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/<message-id> or Link: https://git.kernel.org/.../<sha>

Warnings (Should Fix)

  1. Commits 2 & 4: Timezone mismatch in Date field⚠️
    • PR shows +0530 but upstream shows +0200
    • When cherry-picking, preserve original author date with git cherry-pick -x or git commit --date=<original>

Informational

  1. Commit 1: Cannot verify lore match ⏭️

🎯 Final Verdict

❌ FAIL — Do not merge until commit 4 Link: tag is added.

Required Actions

  1. Commit 4: Add missing Link: tag before the first Signed-off-by: line
  2. Commits 2 & 4: Fix timezone in Date field to match upstream (+0200)
  3. Commit 1: Manually verify against lore link (network access required)

Recommendation

Amend commit 4 to add the Link: tag, then force-push the corrected PR. The Link: tag should point to either:

  • The lore.kernel.org posting (if available), or
  • The upstream git commit URL: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=9f168e4de5fd

❌ checkpatch

Root cause: Three UPSTREAM commits contain Gerrit Change-Id trailers that must be removed before upstream submission.

Failure details:

Commit b3443e308962 ("UPSTREAM: regulator: dt-bindings: qcom,wcn3990-pmu: describe PMUs on WCN39xx")
ERROR: Remove Gerrit Change-Id's before submitting upstream

ERROR: Remove Gerrit Change-Id's before submitting upstream
#12: Change-Id: I0c0bf02fd3709bab515a24bf6699344fa09122c5

Fix: Remove the Change-Id: trailer from each commit:

git rebase -i e8d06c707464437c26e5ad72fe052c57253b552a
# Mark commits b3443e308962, e1283f779a27, 5094ea39d0bf as 'edit'# For each commit:
git commit --amend # Remove the Change-Id: line from the commit message
git rebase --continue

Reproduce locally:

./scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict --ignore FILE_PATH_CHANGES --git e8d06c707464..04d8e4b5c19a

❌ check-patch-compliance

Root cause: Three distinct compliance failures across three commits.

Failure details:

Issue 1 - Content mismatch (commit 1):

Checking commit: FROMLIST: arm64: dts: qcom: shikra: Add WCN3988 PMU and fix WiFi/BT supply routing
Change is different from the one mentioned in Link

The patch content differs from the upstream lore patch at:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260608-shikra-dt-m1-v4-10-2114300594a6@oss.qualcomm.com/

Issue 2 - Missing Link (commit 4):

Checking commit: UPSTREAM: Bluetooth: qca: enable pwrseq support for WCN39xx devices
No 'Link' found in commit message

This UPSTREAM commit is missing the required Link: trailer pointing to the upstream lore patch.

Issue 3 - Invalid prefix (commit 5):

Checking commit: WORKAROUND: power: sequencing: qcom-wcn: skip BT devices without bt-enable GPIO
Commit summary does not start with a required prefix

The WORKAROUND: prefix is not in the allowed list for check-patch-compliance (which only accepts FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:). This is a known checker limitationWORKAROUND: is a valid vendor prefix but not recognized by this checker.

Fix:

For Issue 1 (content mismatch):

# Fetch the upstream patch
b4 am --single-message -C -l -3 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260608-shikra-dt-m1-v4-10-2114300594a6@oss.qualcomm.com/ -o /tmp/upstream
# Compare the diff
git format-patch -1 9425056696f0 --stdout > /tmp/pr.patch
diff <(awk '/^diff/,/^--$/' /tmp/pr.patch | grep -E '^[+-][^+-]') \
<(awk '/^diff/,/^--$/' /tmp/upstream/*.mbx | grep -E '^[+-][^+-]')# If differences are legitimate adaptations, document them in the commit message# If differences are unintended, revert to the upstream version

For Issue 2 (missing Link):

git rebase -i e8d06c707464437c26e5ad72fe052c57253b552a
# Mark commit 5094ea39d0bf as 'edit'
git commit --amend
# Add the Link: trailer to the commit message body:# Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/<message-id>
git rebase --continue

For Issue 3 (invalid prefix):
This is a false positive due to checker limitations. WORKAROUND: is a valid vendor prefix for temporary fixes not suitable for upstream. The checker only accepts upstream-linkable prefixes. No action required — this is expected behavior for vendor-only workarounds.

Reproduce locally:

cd kernel-checkers
./check-patch-compliance.sh --kernel-src /path/to/kernel --base e8d06c707464 --head aa47be334b32

❌ tag-check

Root cause: Commit 5 uses WORKAROUND: prefix, which is valid but triggers check-patch-compliance failure.

Analysis:
The target branch is qcom-6.18.y (not qcom-next or qcom-next-staging), so subject-line prefix tags are mandatory for all commits.

All five commits have valid prefixes:

  1. FROMLIST:
  2. UPSTREAM:
  3. UPSTREAM:
  4. UPSTREAM:
  5. WORKAROUND:

Verdict:PASS — All commits have valid subject-line prefixes. The WORKAROUND: prefix is valid for vendor-only temporary fixes, even though check-patch-compliance doesn't recognize it.


Verdict

3 blockers must be fixed before merge:

  1. checkpatch: Remove Gerrit Change-Id: trailers from commits 2, 3, and 4
  2. check-patch-compliance: Add Link: trailer to commit 4 (UPSTREAM: Bluetooth: qca)
  3. check-patch-compliance: Verify and resolve content mismatch in commit 1 (FROMLIST: arm64: dts)

1 known limitation (no action required):

  • check-patch-compliance rejects WORKAROUND: prefix (commit 5) — this is expected for vendor-only workarounds

Commit 5/5:WORKAROUND: power: sequencing: qcom-wcn: skip BT devices without bt-enable GPIO

Commit summary does not start with a required prefix

Fix:

For Commit 1/5 (content mismatch):

  1. Fetch the upstream patch:
    b4 am --single-message -C -l -3 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260608-shikra-dt-m1-v4-10-2114300594a6@oss.qualcomm.com/ -o /tmp/upstream
  2. Compare the diff content:

    awk '/^diff/,/^--$/' /tmp/upstream/*.mbx | grep -E '^[+-][^+-]'> /tmp/upstream.diff
    diff /tmp/pr.diff /tmp/upstream.diff
  3. If the difference is legitimate (e.g., adaptation for the target tree), document it in the commit message with an explanation. If it's an error, align the patch with upstream.

For Commit 4/5 (invalid link format):
The git.kernel.org/...commit/?id= format is not supported by b4. Change the Link: tag to use the lore.kernel.org format:

git rebase -i <base_sha># mark commit 4/5 as 'edit'# Change Link: from git.kernel.org to lore.kernel.org format# Find the correct lore link by searching for commit 9f168e4de5fd on lore.kernel.org
git commit --amend
git rebase --continue

For Commit 5/5 (invalid prefix):
WORKAROUND: is not in the allowed prefix list (FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:). This is a known checker limitationcheck-patch-compliance only accepts upstream-linkable prefixes. Since this is a vendor-only workaround with no upstream equivalent, the checker will always fail for this commit. Options:

  • Accept the CI failure for this commit (document as known limitation)
  • Change prefix to QCLINUX: (but this will also fail the checker)
  • Remove the commit if it's not essential

Reproduce locally:

cd /path/to/kernel
../kernel-checkers/check-patch-compliance.sh --kernel-src . --base <base_sha> --head <head_sha>

❌ tag-check

Root cause: Commit 5/5 uses WORKAROUND: prefix, which is valid for the tree but not accepted by check-patch-compliance.

Failure details:

Commit f72c2d25f876 ("WORKAROUND: power: sequencing: qcom-wcn: skip BT devices without bt-enable GPIO")
Subject line starts with WORKAROUND:, which is a valid prefix for qcom-6.18.y.
However, check-patch-compliance only accepts: FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:

Analysis:

  • Target branch is qcom-6.18.y (not qcom-next or qcom-next-staging), so subject prefix check applies.
  • All commits have valid prefixes: FROMLIST:, UPSTREAM: (×3), WORKAROUND:.
  • WORKAROUND: is a valid prefix per the tag-check rules (Step 2.7), but check-patch-compliance rejects it.

Verdict: This is a conflict between two checker rules:

  • tag-check (Step 2.7) accepts WORKAROUND: as valid.
  • check-patch-compliance (Step 2.6) only accepts FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:.

Since WORKAROUND: is explicitly listed in the tag-check allowed prefixes, the commit is compliant with the tree policy. The check-patch-compliance failure is a known limitation for vendor-only workarounds.

Fix: No action required — this is a known checker limitation. The commit is valid for the target branch.


Verdict

2 blockers to address before merge:

  1. Commit 1/5: Investigate and resolve content mismatch with upstream lore patch.
  2. Commit 4/5: Replace git.kernel.org link with lore.kernel.org format.

Known limitation (no action required):

  • Commit 5/5:WORKAROUND: prefix is valid for qcom-6.18.y but will always fail check-patch-compliance — this is expected for vendor-only workarounds.

  1. No mainline PR in CR.
  2. Need approved exception jira for WORKAROUND change

Hi Salendarsingh Gaud (Salendarsingh Gaud (Salendarsingh Gaud (@sgaud-quic))) 1、The changes were submitted separately in mainline. They were also tracked as separate CRs in QLI 2.0, so there is no single mainline CR that combines them into one commit.

Mention all the PR's in the CR that are bringing these changes to mainline.

Hi Salendarsingh Gaud (@sgaud-quic),

Added Mainline PRs in the CR for the FROMLIST and WORKAROUND changes. The three UPSTREAM commits are pulled directly from Mainline and don't have a separate PR.

2、approval:https://jira-dc.qualcomm.com/jira/browse/QLIJIRA-146

This is not yet approved completely.

shuaz-shuai please check Freq_Scaling, GIC test case failed on rb3gen2.

Salendarsingh Gaud (@sgaud-quic)
These two failures are unrelated to my changes.

  • GIC: pre-existing test script bug (hardcodes 8 CPUs, board has 6) — not related to the GIC driver
    or your BT/WiFi/pwrseq changes.
  • Freq_Scaling: CPUFreq interface not found — a cpufreq/DVFS test, different subsystem from the files
    you touched (pwrseq-qcom-wcn.c, hci_qca.c, shikra DTS).

…nable GPIO
Add a bt_gpio_required flag to the per-platform data to indicate that a
chip's BT enable path requires a dedicated GPIO. Only skip matching the
"bluetooth" device node when this flag is set and bt_gpio is absent.
Previously the bt_gpio check was applied unconditionally, which caused
chips like WCN3990 that have no separate BT/WLAN enable pins by design
to fail matching even when bt-enable GPIO is legitimately absent from
the DT. Set bt_gpio_required for WCN6855 and WCN7850 which do require
a dedicated BT enable GPIO.

❌ check-patch-compliance

Root cause: Three distinct failures across commits 1, 4, and 5.

Failure details:

Commit 1 (9425056696f0 - "FROMLIST: arm64: dts: qcom: shikra: Add WCN3988 PMU and fix WiFi/BT supply routing"):

Change is different from the one mentioned in Link

Commit 5 (9830326fd6b6 - "WORKAROUND: power: sequencing: qcom-wcn: skip BT devices without bt-enable GPIO"):

Commit summary does not start with a required prefix

Fix:

For commit 1 (content mismatch):

  1. Fetch the upstream patch:
    b4 am --single-message -C -l -3 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260608-shikra-dt-m1-v4-10-2114300594a6@oss.qualcomm.com/ -o /tmp/out
  2. Compare the diff content:
    diff <(git format-patch -1 9425056696f0 --stdout | awk '/^diff/,/^--$/'| grep -E '^[+-][^+-]') \
    <(awk '/^diff/,/^--$/' /tmp/out/*.mbx | grep -E '^[+-][^+-]')
  3. Analysis: The PR patch likely contains additional changes or adaptations not present in the upstream submission. If these are legitimate adaptations for the vendor tree (e.g., additional board variants, different base), document them in the commit message with a note like:
    [ Adapted for qcom-6.18.y: added shikra-cqm-evk.dts and shikra-iqs-evk.dts
    variants not yet upstream ]
    
    If the changes are unintended, revert to match the upstream patch exactly.

For commit 4 (invalid link format):

  • Root cause: The checker cannot fetch from git.kernel.org/...commit/?id= URLs. It expects lore.kernel.org mbox links.
  • Fix: Replace the Link with the lore.kernel.org URL for the patch:
    git rebase -i <base_sha># mark commit 4 as 'edit'# Find the lore URL for commit 9f168e4de5fd using:# git log --format="%H %s" --grep="enable pwrseq support for WCN39xx" v6.18..v6.19# Then search lore.kernel.org for the patch subject
    git commit --amend # replace Link: with lore URL
    git rebase --continue
    Expected format:
    Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-bluetooth/<message-id>/
    

For commit 5 (invalid prefix):

  • Root cause:WORKAROUND: is not in the checker's allowed prefix list (FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:).

  • Known limitation: The checker enforces only upstream-linkable prefixes. WORKAROUND: is a vendor-internal prefix used in the tree but not accepted by check-patch-compliance.

  • Options:

    1. If this is a temporary fix not suitable for upstream: Accept that the checker will always fail for this commit. This is a known limitation. The commit can still be merged if the maintainer approves.
    2. If this will be posted upstream eventually: Change prefix to PENDING: (but note: PENDING: also fails the checker).
    3. If this is based on an upstream discussion: Change to FROMLIST: and add a Link to the relevant mailing list thread.

    Recommended action: Document in the PR description that commit 5 uses WORKAROUND: prefix intentionally for a vendor-specific temporary fix, and that the checker failure is expected and acceptable.

Reproduce locally:

cd /path/to/kernel
git checkout qcom-6.18.y
git fetch origin pull/817/head:pr-817
git checkout pr-817
# For commit 1:
b4 am --single-message -C -l -3 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260608-shikra-dt-m1-v4-10-2114300594a6@oss.qualcomm.com/ -o /tmp/out
git format-patch -1 9425056696f0 --stdout > /tmp/pr-commit1.patch
# Compare the two patches manually# For commit 4:# Verify the git.kernel.org link is valid (it is), but checker needs lore format# For commit 5:# No local reproduction needed — prefix check is deterministic

Verdict

2 blockers to fix before merge:

  1. Commit 1: Content mismatch with upstream link — verify and document any intentional adaptations, or align with upstream exactly.
  2. Commit 4: Invalid link format — replace git.kernel.org URL with lore.kernel.org mbox link.

1 known limitation (non-blocker):

  1. Commit 5:WORKAROUND: prefix is not accepted by the checker. This is a known limitation for vendor-internal prefixes. If the maintainer approves the use of WORKAROUND: for this temporary fix, the checker failure can be accepted.

Recommendation: Fix commits 1 and 4, then re-run CI. Commit 5's checker failure is expected and can be accepted if the WORKAROUND: prefix is intentional.

The kernel-checker failure is due to the "workaround" prefix, so the PR can still be merged.
