Existing blobs are of version ath9k-htc 1.3.1, see http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/?id=21a6c3e55df956dd223279627685778268ede70f These are as said in the commit are left for compatibility with older kernels which [older kernels] will look for blobs in the root of "/lib/firmware". But there're newer v1.4 blobs in ath9k_htc folder. And newer kernels (>=4.4) look first in that new location "/lib/firmware/ath9k_htc". Note that even new kernels will fall back to previous location if new one doesn't exist. Tested with TP-LINK TL-WN722N (has Atheros AR9271 inside).

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
