            Bug ID: 285905
           Summary: iwx(4): wlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-77.ucode: could not load
                    firmware image, error 8
           Product: Base System
           Version: 15.0-CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern

It looks like iwx(4) finds my card, but can't load firmware for some reason:

Apr  5 19:17:49 pustak kernel: iwx0: <Wi-Fi 6 AX210> mem 0xef000000-0xef003fff
irq 18 at device 0.0 on pci2
Apr  5 19:17:49 pustak kernel: iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-77.ucode: could not load
firmware image, error 8
Apr  5 19:17:49 pustak kernel: iwx0: could not load firmware, 35
Apr  5 19:17:49 pustak kernel: iwx0: failed to load init firmware
Apr  5 19:17:49 pustak kernel: iwx0: failed to stop device

The error reported, 8, is ENOEXEC.  The file appears fine though:

% pkg which /boot/firmware/iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-77.ucode
/boot/firmware/iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-77.ucode was installed by package

MD5 (/boot/firmware/iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-77.ucode) =

The same NIC works fine with iwlwifi(4):

It looks like iwlwifi(4) is using a different firmware image than iwx(4) for
some reason?
