Using sdk to build old version of kmod-ath9k

For Developers
1

The latest ath9k driver, which is from backports, does not detect the AR9462 that was once detected. I have an image that detects it that was built before May 1st.

How can I build an older version of kmod-ath9k with the sdk builder, so I can test an older working driver with a newer kernel?

Just FYI

lspci finds it

03:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR9462 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)

The module loads

root@LEDE:~# lsmod | grep ath
ath                    16787  3 ath9k,ath9k_common,ath9k_hw
ath9k                  95491  0

dmesg says

That is weird since AR9462 was not touched for a long time

I tried modprobe ath9k btcoex_enable=0, but no change. Maybe that's not the right way to do it, because debug=1 did not make /sys/proc/debug/ieee* appear either.
