Atheros QCA9377

Dear community, i have a problem.

We purchased Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 Wireless Network Adapter. I have read many forums and realized that this adapter is not supported. Is that still correct or have the rules changed?
There is no interface in ifconfig, but the bus sees the adapter:

root@123:~ # pciconf -vle

none2@pci0:3:0:0: class=0x028000 rev=0x31 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x168c device=0x0042 subvendor=0x1a3b subdevice=0x2251
     vendor = 'Qualcomm Atheros'
     device = 'QCA9377 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter'
     class = network

Sorry for my bad english

There is no interface in ifconfig

Wireless interfaces won't show up with ifconfig(8). Check sysctl net.wlan.devices instead. That said, not sure if this card is supported or not. Judging by the output, it says none, which means no driver is currently attached to it. But you may just need to load the right kernel module.

No that Atheros model is not supported.
Once we get ATH10K driver finished it will be supported. The Atheros ATH9K driver does not support any 802.11ac cards.
