wifi: rtw89: remove redundant check of entering LPS

2023-06-01T13:16:41+00:00

Originally, add this check rule to prevent entering LPS if more than one vif (in station mode) connect to AP. Since we have checked this by previous commit, remove this redundant check.

wifi: rtw89: correct PS calculation for SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS

2023-06-01T13:16:41+00:00

This driver relies on IEEE80211_CONF_PS of hw->conf.flags to turn off PS or turn on dynamic PS controlled by driver and firmware. Though this would be incorrect, it did work before because the flag is always recalculated until the commit 28977e790b5d ("wifi: mac80211: skip powersave recalc if driver SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS") is introduced by kernel 5.20 to skip to recalculate IEEE80211_CONF_PS of hw->conf.flags if driver sets SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS. Correct this by doing recalculation while BSS_CHANGED_PS is changed and interface is added or removed. For now, it is allowed to enter PS only if single one station vif is working, and it could possible to have PS per vif after firmware can support it. Without this fix, driver doesn't enter PS anymore that causes higher power consumption.

wifi: rtw88: sdio: Always use two consecutive bytes for word operations

2023-05-17T06:09:41+00:00

The Allwinner sunxi-mmc controller cannot handle word (16 bit) transfers. So and sdio_{read,write}w fails with messages like the following example using an RTL8822BS (but the same problems were also observed with RTL8822CS and RTL8723DS chips): rtw_8822bs mmc1:0001:1: Firmware version 27.2.0, H2C version 13 sunxi-mmc 4021000.mmc: unaligned scatterlist: os f80 length 2 sunxi-mmc 4021000.mmc: map DMA failed rtw_8822bs mmc1:0001:1: sdio read16 failed (0x10230): -22 Use two consecutive single byte accesses for word operations instead. It turns out that upon closer inspection this is also what the vendor driver does, even though it does have support for sdio_{read,write}w. So we can conclude that the rtw88 chips do support word access but only on SDIO controllers that also support it. Since there's no way to detect if the controller supports word access or not the rtw88 sdio driver switches to the easiest approach: avoiding word access.

wifi: rtl8xxxu: fix authentication timeout due to incorrect RCR value

2023-05-15T18:19:21+00:00

When using rtl8192cu with rtl8xxxu driver to connect wifi, there is a probability of failure, which shows "authentication with ... timed out". Through debugging, it was found that the RCR register has been inexplicably modified to an incorrect value, resulting in the nic not being able to receive authenticated frames. To fix this problem, add regrcr in rtl8xxxu_priv struct, and store the RCR value every time the register is written, and use it the next time the register need to be modified.

wifi: rtl8xxxu: Simplify setting the initial gain

2023-04-20T12:35:38+00:00

The goal of writing 0x6954341e / 0x6955341e to REG_OFDM0_XA_AGC_CORE1 appears to be setting the initial gain, which is stored in bits 0..6. Bits 7..31 are the same as what the phy init tables write. Modify only bits 0..6 so that we don't have to care about the values of the others. This way we don't have to add another "else if" for the RTL8192FU. Why we need to change the initial gain from the default 0x20 to 0x1e? Not sure. Some of the vendor drivers change it to 0x1e before scanning and then restore it to the original value after.
