This guide works for me © on Debian, with Linux 5.6 and ath9k.

If you want to patch Linux < 5.6, try the patches in this revision.

In the repository linked above, you can also find Ansible roles to set things up in an automated fashion.

Hello, has somebody tried to make it work on ath10k driver?

I have been just searching for this as well. Maybe (unlikely), I find the time to dig into ath10, but I'm really not into kernel development at all.

Also, It would be great if someone would drop a note here once he or she finds useful resources.

Update: I just pushed the work in progress' status regarding patching ath10k for IEEE 802.11p. I am not a kernel dev, so if anyone with expertise wants to join in… :)
