I am having this problem where SOF is compiled as built in the kernel and the firmware binary is on the rootfs.
When request_firmware is called in sof_probe the rootfs is not yet mounted so the call to request_firmware fails.
Just curious, how do you provide the firmware binary?
it's a known issue that we haven't fixed since we use modules both for development and production. Other drivers have the same problem IIRC.
