Hi

It is happens on fresh 7-CURRENT.

$ man 4 iwi

...
     This driver requires firmware to be loaded before it will work.
You need
     to install the net/iwi-firmware port before ifconfig(8) will work
...

/usr/ports/net/iwi-firmware# make
===>  iwi-firmware-2.4 iwi(4) support is already included in your tree.
/usr/ports/net/iwi-firmware#

$ find /usr/src -name '*iwi*' | fgrep -v iwic
/usr/src/share/man/man4/iwi.4
/usr/src/sys/dev/iwi
/usr/src/sys/dev/iwi/if_iwi.c
/usr/src/sys/dev/iwi/if_iwireg.h
/usr/src/sys/dev/iwi/if_iwivar.h
/usr/src/sys/modules/iwi
/usr/src/tools/tools/iwi
/usr/src/tools/tools/iwi/iwistats.c
$

What is official way to fetch firmware now ?
