The blobs turned out to be a public download rather than something to recover from a lost backup. WOA-Project/Qualcomm-Reference-Drivers collects the Windows-on-ARM driver cabinets by SoC, and three of them cover this machine completely: qcdx850.cab has the zap shader and venus, qcipa850.cab has ipa_fws.elf, and qcsubsys850.cab has the four DSP images plus WLANMDSP.MBN — the WiFi firmware, which is not in the device tree's firmware-name list at all and so was never on our list of things to look for. Correct three claims elsewhere in the file that this disproves. `file` reports these as ELF QUALCOMM DSP6 images, not as `data` — worth stating precisely, since it is the quickest way to tell a real blob from a download that returned an HTML error page. The sizes span 14KB to 60MB rather than "a few hundred KB to a few MB". And the heading claiming they must come off the Windows partition is no longer true of the easiest route. Also narrow what c630-firmware puts in the initramfs. It globbed every .mbn in the firmware directory, which would have pulled in the 60MB qcdsp2850.mbn and inflated the initramfs roughly twentyfold. Only the GPU needs to be there — msm_dpu probes at six seconds, while the initramfs is still root; the ADSP, CDSP, SLPI, venus and modem all probe around forty seconds in and load from the real root perfectly happily.
