This handles the situation when firmware crashes.
When firmware crashes, it will send an interrupt, and driver will queue
a work for recovery.
In the work, driver will reset it's internal association state, which
includes removing associated sta's macid, resetting vifs' states
and removing keys. After resetting the driver's state, driver will call
rtw_enter_ips() to force the chipset power off to reset the chip.
Finally, driver calls ieee80211_restart_hw() to inform mac80211 stack
to restart.
Since only 8822c firmware supports this feature, the interrupt will only
be triggered when 8822c chipset is loaded.

Connecting to an AP with WPA2 security may fail. The IQK
and the EAPOL 4-way handshake may overlap because the
driver does IQK right after assoc success.
For 802.11n devices, the IQK is done in the driver and it
could require more than 100ms to complete. During IQK, any
TX/RX events are paused. So if the EAPOL 4-way handshake
started before IQK finished, then the 1/4 and 2/4 part of
the handshake could be dropped. The AP will then issue
deauth with reason IEEE8021X_FAILED (23).
To resolve this, move IQK routine into managed TX prepare
(ieee80211_ops::mgd_prepare_tx()). The callback is called
before the managed frames (auth/assoc) are sent. This will
make sure that the IQK is completed before the handshake
starts. But don't do IQK during scanning because doing it
on each channel will take too long.
For 802.11ac devices, the IQK is done in firmware and it
takes less time to complete. Therefore we don't see a
failure during the EAPOL 4-way handshake. But it is still
worth moving the IQK into ieee80211_ops::mgd_prepare_tx().

Each device has only one reserved page shared with all of the
vifs, so it seems not reasonable to pass vif as one of the
arguments to rtw_fw_download_rsvd_page(). If driver is going
to run more than one vif, the content of reserved page could
not be built for all of the vifs.
To fix it, let each vif maintain its own reserved page list,
and build the final reserved page to download to the firmware
from all of the vifs. Hence driver should add reserved pages
to each vif according to the vif->type when adding the vif.
For station mode, add reserved page with rtw_add_rsvd_page_sta().
If the station mode is going to suspend in PNO (net-detect)
mode, remove the reserved pages used for normal mode, and add
new one for wowlan mode with rtw_add_rsvd_page_pno().
For beacon mode, only beacon is required to be added using
rtw_add_rsvd_page_bcn().
This would make the code flow simpler as we don't need to
add reserved pages when vif is running, just add/remove them
when ieee80211_ops::[add|remove]_interface.
When driver is going to download the reserved page, it will
collect pages from all of the vifs, this list is maintained
by rtwdev, with build_list as the pages' member. That way, we
can still build a list of reserved pages to be downloaded.
Also we can get the location of the pages from the list that
is maintained by rtwdev.
The biggest problem is that the first page should always be
beacon, if other type of reserved page is put in the first
page, the tx descriptor and offset could be wrong.
But station mode vif does not add beacon into its list, so
we need to add a dummy page in front of the list, to make
sure other pages will not be put in the first page. As the
dummy page is allocated when building the list, we must free
it before building a new list of reserved pages to firmware.

Some tests shows that using AMSDU to aggregate TCP ACKs to specific
APs will degrade the throughput on 2.4G band in 20MHz bandwidth
(< 10 Mbps, should be ~100 Mbps for 2x2). Also found that there's
barely no negative impact if we disable TX AMSDU on 2.4G to connect
to other APs. So it seems like we can just tell mac80211 to not to
aggregate MSDUs when transmitting on 2.4G band.

Wake on WLAN(wowlan) is a feature which allows devices
to be woken up from suspend state through wlan events.
When user enables wowlan feature and then let the device
enter suspend state, wowlan firmware will be loaded by
the driver and periodically monitors wifi packets.
Power consumption of wifi chip will be reduced in this
state.
If wowlan firmware detects that specific wlan event
happens, it will issue wakeup signal to trigger resume
process. Driver will load normal firmware and let wifi
chip return to the original state.
Currently supported wlan events include receiving magic packet,
rekey packet and deauth packet, and disconnecting from AP.

Sometimes mac80211 will ask us to flush the hardware queues.
To flush them, first we need to get the corresponding priority queues
from the RQPN mapping table.
Then we can check the available pages are equal to the originally
reserved pages, which means the hardware has returned all of the pages
it used to transmit.
Note that now we only check for 100 ms for the priority queue, but

We can indicate IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL to mac80211 because
the hardware has its own rate control algorithm. And what driver needs
to do is to choose an RA mask according the peer's capabilities.
But the hardware is not able to setup BA session by itself. So driver
requires to initiate tx BA session for hardware, and tells it if it is
possible to transmit AMPDU. The hardware can then aggregate MPDUs.
And the size of AMPDU is controlled by the TX descriptor and the
register value. Since the TX descriptor will reference the max AMPDU
size from ieee80211_sta::ht_cap::ampdu_factor, just set the register
value to 0x3f, and let it be controlled by TX descriptor.

The mac80211 provides software TX queue for driver, as long as
driver has hooked ieee80211_ops::wake_tx_queue. Each time a
packet is queued onto the TX queue, that queue will be woken
up the inform driver to serve the queue.
Now driver only supports PCI interface ICs, there's no specific
traffic control for each queue, just schedule a tasklet, and
dump all of the packets at once to the DMA ring. Instead of TX
the packets whenever TX queue is woke, tasklet handler can have
more packets dumped to the device, takes advantage of burst
write with DMA engine.
And if the driver is going to support USB/SDIO ICs, the tasklet
can be more flexible for aggregating the packets, enhance the
efficiency of bandwidth usage.

The module parameter rtw_fw_support_lps is misleading. It
is not used to represent the firmware's property, but to
determine if driver wants to ask firmware to enter LPS.
However, driver should better enable/disable PS through

For example, one could use iw command to set PS state.
$ sudo iw wlanX set power_save [on/off]

Deep power save allows firmware/hardware to operate in a
lower power state. And the deep power save mode depends on
LPS mode. So, before entering deep PS, driver must first
enter LPS mode.
Under Deep PS, most of hardware functions are shutdown,
driver will not be able to read/write registers and transfer
data to the device. Hence TX path must be protected by each
interface. Take PCI for example, DMA engine should be idle,
and no nore activities on the PCI bus.
If driver wants to operate on the device, such as register
read/write, it must first acquire the mutex lock and wake
up from Deep PS, otherwise the behavior is undefined.

The original design of LPS enter/leave routines allows
to control the LPS state by each interface. But the
hardware cannot actually handle it that way. This means
the hardware can only enter LPS once with an associated
port, so there is no need to keep tracking the state of
each vif.
Hence the logic of enter/leave LPS state can be simple,
just to check the state of the device's flag. And for
leaving LPS state, it will get the same port id to send
to inform the hardware.

Both RTL8822BE/RTL8822CE are WiFi + BT combo chips. Since
WiFi and BT use 2.4GHz to transmit, it is important to
make sure they run concurrently without interfering each
other. To achieve this, WiFi driver requires a mechanism
to collaborate with BT, whether they share the antenna(s)
or not.
The final decision made by the co-existence mechanism is
to choose a proper strategy, or called "tdma/table", and
inform either firmware or hardware of the strategy.
To choose a strategy, co-existence mechanism needs to
have enough information from WiFi and BT.
BT information is provided through firmware C2H.
The contents describe the current status of BT, such as
if BT is connected or is idle, or the profile that is
being used.
WiFi information can be provided by WiFi itself. The WiFi
driver will call various of "notify" functions each time
the state of WiFi changed, such as WiFi is going to switch
channel or is connected. Also WiFi driver can know if it
shares antenna with BT by reading efuse content. Antenna
configuration of the module will finally get a different
strategy.
Upon receiving any information from WiFi or BT, the WiFi
driver will run the co-existence mechanism immediately.
It will set the RF antenna configuration according to the
strategy through the TDMA H2C to firmware and a hardware
table. Based on the tdma/table, WiFi + BT should work with
each other, and having a better user experience.

This is a new mac80211 driver for Realtek 802.11ac wireless network chips.
rtw88 now supports RTL8822BE/RTL8822CE now, with basic station mode
functionalities. The firmware for both can be found at linux-firmware.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git
For RTL8822BE: rtw88/rtw8822b_fw.bin
For RTL8822CE: rtw88/rtw8822c_fw.bin
And for now, only PCI buses (RTL8xxxE) are supported. We will add support
for USB and SDIO in the future. The bus interface abstraction can be seen
in this driver such as hci.h. Most of the hardware setting are the same
except for some TRX path or probing setup should be separated.
Supported:
* Basic STA/AP/ADHOC mode, and TDLS (STA is well tested)
Missing feature:
* WOW/PNO
* USB & SDIO bus (such as RTL8xxxU/RTL8xxxS)
* BT coexistence (8822B/8822C are combo ICs)
* Multiple interfaces (for now single STA is better supported)
* Dynamic hardware calibrations (to improve/stabilize performance)
Potential problems:
* static calibration spends too much time, and it is painful for
driver to leave IDLE state. And slows down associate process.
But reload function are under development, will be added soon!
* TRX statictics misleading, as we are not reporting status correctly,
or say, not reporting for "every" packet.
The next patch set should have BT coexistence code since RTL8822B/C are
combo ICs, and the driver for BT can be found after Linux Kernel v4.20.
So it is better to add it first to make WiFi + BT work concurrently.
Although now rtw88 is simple but we are developing more features for it.
Even we want to add support for more chips such as RTL8821C/RTL8814B.
