Hello everyone please be easy as this is my first time using Gentoo. Its been a pretty big battle so far. Touchpad issues and now wireless. I have compiled in the ath10k stuff per the handbook lspci shows my Atheros QCA6174. Unfortunately dmesg shows several erors.
Code:
ath10k_pci failed to alloc CE src ring 0: -12
ath10k_pci failed to allocate copy engine pipe 0: -12
ath10k_pci failed to copy engine pipes: -12
ath10k_pci failed to setup resource: -12
ath10k_pci probe of 0000:03:00.0 failed with error -12

lspci -nnkv shows Kernel modules ath10k_pci but no Kernel drivers.

If anyone have any ideas how to fix this I would be very happy. Thanks.

Just as an update I let genkernel build the newest 5.13.4 kernel just make sure I made no errors with my build and still the exact same errors, and a lot more modules. :roll:

Code:
02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Qualcomm Atheros QCA6174 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter [168c:003e] (rev 32)
        Subsystem: Rivet Networks QCA6174 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter [1a56:1535]
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 139
        Memory at dc200000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2M]
        Capabilities: <access denied>
        Kernel driver in use: ath10k_pci
        Kernel modules: ath10k_pci

All I did is ensure the two kernel settings below are enabled and install sys-kernel/linux-firmware net-misc/dhcpcd. No compiling or anything special.

OOPS!
A few more necessary kernel configs, I have BT/wireless combo, not sure if the Ath9k is needed but that's what I got

Thanks for your reply. All of thats seems to be enabled in my .config. I removed the ath10k directory and re-emerged sys-kernel/linux-firmware and still the same error. Is it possible for you to check the version of sys-kernel/linux-firmware you are using?

Another update while looking through Dmesg I noticed a pci irq error and ended up adding pci-biosirq to the kernel line along with the i8042.nopnp that was needed to get a touchpad working. Now I'm connected to my wireless but I'm not yet getting assigned a ip address.

Last update. Everything works. Time to find a web browser. I really like ungoogled chromium I use it on android and debian but i will have to do some further Gentoo research.
