The clang build reports this warning
fw.c:1485:21: warning: address of array 'rtwdev->chip->fw_fifo_addr'
will always evaluate to 'true'
if (!rtwdev->chip->fw_fifo_addr) {
fw_fifo_addr is an array in rtw_chip_info so it is always
nonzero. A better check is if the first element of the array is
nonzero. In the cases where fw_fifo_addr is initialized by rtw88b
and rtw88c, the first array element is 0x780.

Rtw88 currently has a function to dump reserved page section of the
firmware fifo. Reserved page is just part of the firmware fifo, there
are multiple sections in the firmware fifo for different usages, such as
firmware rx fifo and tx fifo.
This commit adds a function to check not only the reserved page section
but also other parts of the firmware fifo. In addition, we need to dump
firmware fifo to dump the debug log message if firmware crashes.

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.

In the current design, various chip functions and tables
are built into rtw88 core. That causes kernel to load its
functionalities even if a chip isn't currently used. We
plan to make each chip's functionalities a separate
kernel module to reduce rtw88 core. And kernel will be
able to load the necessary.
Before extracting chip functionalities, we export symbols
inside rtw88 core which will be used in chip modules.

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.

Driver could possibly be dead-locked while canceling works with
*_sync() with mutex lock held. Those cancel_delayed_work_sync()
functions will wait until the work is done, but if we hold the
lock, they will never acquire the lock.
To prevent this, simply release the lock and acquire again after
the works have been canceled. And to avoid the works being queued
again, check if the device is at RTW_FLAG_RUNNING state, otherwise
just return and do nothing.

Net-detect is an option of wowlan to allow the device to
be woken up from suspend mode when configured network is detected.
When user enables net-detect and lets the device enter suspend
state, wowlan firmware will periodically scan until beacon or
probe response of configured networks are received.
Between two scans, wowlan firmware keeps wifi chip in idle mode
to reduce power consumption. If configured networks are detected,
wowlan firmware will trigger resume process.

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.

And if the difference of current thermal value to the

should be triggered to re-calibrate the characteristics
of the RF components, to keep the output IQ vectors of

When downloading the reserved page, the first page always contains
a beacon for the firmware to reference. For non-beaconing modes such
as station mode, also put a blank skb with length=1.
And for the beaconing modes, driver will get a real beacon with a
length approximate to the page size. But as the beacon is always put
at the first page, it does not need a tx_desc, because the TX path
will generate one when TXing the reserved page to the hardware. So we
could allocate a buffer with a size smaller than the reserved page,
when using memcpy() to copy the content of reserved page to the buffer,
the over-sized reserved page will violate the kernel memory.
To fix it, add the tx_desc before memcpy() the reserved packets to
the buffer, then we can get SKBs with correct length when counting
the pages in total. And for page 0, count the extra tx_desc_sz that
the TX path will generate. This way, the first beacon that allocated
without tx_desc can be counted with the extra tx_desc_sz to get
actual pages it requires.

Based on the mac80211's TXQ implementation, TX-AMSDU can
be used to get higher MAC efficiency. To make mac80211
aggregate MSDUs, low level driver just need to leave skbs
in the TXQ, and mac80211 will try to aggregate them if
possible. As driver will schedule a tasklet when the TX
queue is woke, until the tasklet being served, there will
have some skbs in the queue if traffic is heavy.
Driver can control the max AMSDU size depending on the
current bit rate used by hardware/firmware. The higher
rates are used, the larger AMSDU size can be.
It is tested that can achieve higher T-Put at higher rates.
If the environment is relatively clean, and the bit_rate
is high enough, we can get about 80Mbps improvement.
For lower bit rates, not much gain can we get, so leave
the max_amsdu length low to prevent aggregation.

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.
Finally, rtw88 has many authors, listed alphabetically:
