Do you have pd-mapper, rmtfs and tqftpserv running? You also need to
have wlanmdsp.mbn in the same directory as modem.mbn for your platform
(see how this is handled for sdm845).
If these points are implemented and you still don't have the wlan,
please check for tqftpserv messages in syslog.

These readmes are mostly correct. You don't need qrtr now, it is
provided by the kernel.  pd-mapper (protection-domain-mapper),
tqftpserv and rmtfs usually can be installed from your distro.

You can mostly ignore the part for board.bin / board-2.bin for now.
You'll get to that point later, when the driver complains about
missing board data.

Also, if you pick up series at [1], you can put your bdwlan.XXX file
as ath10k/WCN3990/hw1.0/board.bin and skip all the json and stuff.
This will work for the bringup, then you can follow the process at [2]
and submit your file for inclusion into board-2.bin.
