Greetings Russel,

from all the above, do you have any idea as to why on my device, ath9k fails to load & to why enabling CONFIG_PACKAGE_kmod-owl-loader, ath9k successfully loads ? 

is it because, for some reason, ath9k can't find the art info & owl-loader works around this ?

// The calibration data is in the art partition, afaik. I see data when I do this: //

  dd if=/dev/mtd8 | hexdump -C

same in my device, there is data on /dev/mtd8

here is the output of /proc/mtd 

  dev:    size   erasesize  name
  mtd0: 00040000 00010000 "u-boot"
  mtd1: 00010000 00010000 "u-boot-env"
  mtd2: 00750000 00010000 "firmware"
  mtd3: 00180000 00010000 "kernel"
  mtd4: 005d0000 00010000 "rootfs"
  mtd5: 003b0000 00010000 "rootfs_data"
  mtd6: 00010000 00010000 "board_config"
  mtd7: 00040000 00010000 "cfg"
  mtd8: 00010000 00010000 "art"

any suggestions as to how further debug this issue ?

thank you for the feedback
