Register cfg80211_sar_capa with type NL80211_SAR_TYPE_POWER and four
frequency ranges for configurations in unit of 0.25 dBm. And handle
callback set_sar_specs.
Originally, TX power has three main parameters, i.e. power base,
power by rate, and power limit. The formula can be simply considered
as TX power = power base + min(power by rate, power limit). With the
support of SAR which can be treated as another power limit, there is
one more parameter for TX power. And the formula will evolve into
TX power = power base + min(power by rate, power limit, power sar).
Besides, debugfs tx_pwr_tbl is also refined to show SAR information.
The following is an example for the difference.
Before supporting SAR,
-----------------------------------
...
path rate pwr base (byr lmt ) rem
A CCK_1M 66(0x42) 78 -12 ( 12 -12) 0
A CCK_2M 66(0x42) 78 -12 ( 8 -12) 0
...
-----------------------------------
After supporting SAR and making some configurations,
-----------------------------------
...
path rate pwr base (byr lmt sar ) rem
A CCK_1M 62(0x3e) 78 -16 ( 12 -12 -16) 0
A CCK_2M 62(0x3e) 78 -16 ( 8 -12 -16) 0

Add Energy Detected CCA (EDCCA) mechanism to detect energy on the channel.
And EDCCA support adaptivity mode now. From MIC Ordinance Regulating Radio
Equipment article 49.20, ETSI EN-300-328 and EN-301-893, the device should
be able to dynamically pause TX activity when energy detected on the air.
According to ETSI/JP DFS region, driver will set corresponding threshold
and stop TX activity if the detected energy exceeds the threshold. For now,
we support it on 8822b and 8822c first.
By default, EDCCA mechanism is turned on. For ETSI/JP DFS region, it will
turn to adaptivity mode. However, with adaptivity, if environment is too
noisy, TX may often be halted. So, a debugfs for EDCCA is added. It can
show what EDCCA mode is used currently. And EDCCA mechanism can be turned
on/off through the debugfs while debugging.

This feature chooses to transmit with antenna that has better signal
strength periodically under 1ss rate.
It can benefit connection quality in the following cases:
1. User is far away from the AP.
2. The far-field pattern of the antenna showed significant signal
strength difference.

Register rrsr determines the response rate we send.
In field tests, using rate higher than current tx rate could lead
to difficulty for the receiving end to receive management/control
frames. Calculate current modulation level by tx rate then cross out
rate higher than those.

When chip's temperature is changed, RF characters are changed. To keep the
characters to be consistent, 8723d uses thermal meter to assist in
calibrating LCK, IQK, crystal and TX power.
A base thermal value is programmed in efuse, all calibration data in
MP process is based on this thermal value. So we calucate the delta of
thermal value between the base value, and use this delta to reference XTAL
and TX power offset tables to know how much we need to adjust.
For IQK and LCK, driver checks if delta of thermal value is over 8, then
they are triggered.
For crystal adjustment, when delta of thermal value is changed, we check
XTAL tables to get offset of XTAL value. If thermal value is larger than
base value, positive table (_p as suffix) is used. Otherwise, we use
negative table (_n as suffix). Then, we add offset to XTAL default value
programmed in efuse, and write sum value to register.
To compensate TX power, there are two hierarchical tables. First level use
delta of thermal value to access eight tables to yield delta of TX power
index. Then, plus base TX power index to get index of BB swing table
(second level tables) where register value is induced.
BB swing table can't deal with all cases, if index of BB swing table is
over the size of the table. In this case, TX AGC is used to compensate the
remnant part. Assume 'upper' is the upper bound of BB swing table, and
'target' is the desired index. Then, we can illustrate them as
compensation method BB swing TX AGC
------------------- -------- --------------
target > upper upper target - upper
target < 0 0 target
otherwise target 0
For debug purpose, add a column 'rem' to tx_pwr_tbl entry, and it looks
like
path rate pwr base (byr lmt ) rem
A CCK_1M 32(0x20) 34 -2 ( 0 -2) 0

8723D use SIPI to indirectly read RF register instead of directly read,
so introduce a new struct rtw_rf_sipi_addr and new function
rtw_phy_read_rf_sipi(). Since other chips don't use the new function,
only 8723D needs to fill struct rtw_rf_sipi_addr in rtw_chip_info.
Because there are two kinds of functions for reading RF registers now,
change rtw_phy_read_rf() to chip->ops->read_rf() in
rtw_phy_write_rf_reg_sipi() so that we can switch tp proper RF read
functions depends on the type of the chip.
Though 8723D is an 1x1 chip, it has two RF PHY and we can switch to
one of them, and that should be configured properly. Hence, add a
fix_rf_phy_num to struct rtw_chip_info to allow driver to set one of
the PHY's registers for 8723D, even it is only 1x1. Another variable
rf_phy_num is introduced to keep the constraint number of RF path we
can access, and its value is:
rf_phy_num = (fix_rf_phy_num ? fix_rf_phy_num : rf_path_num)

The level of cckpd is from 0 to 4, and it is the index of
array pd_lvl[] and cs_lvl[]. However, the length of both arrays
are 4, which is smaller than the possible maximum input index.
Enumerate cck level to make sure the max level will not be wrong
if new level is added in future.

The temperature of the chip can affect the output power
of the RF components. Hence driver requires to compensate
the power by adjusting the power index recorded in the
power swing table.
And if the difference of current thermal value to the
default thermal value exceeds a threshold, the RF IQK
should be triggered to re-calibrate the characteristics
of the RF components, to keep the output IQ vectors of
the RF components orthogonal enough.

This mechanism reduces the numbers of false alram in cck rate by
dynamically adjusting the value of power threshold and cs_ratio.
We determine the new value by three factors, which are rssi, false alarm
count and igi. Based on these factors, we define the current condition
into five levels. Compared to the previous level, if the level is changed,
we set the new values for power threshold and cs_ratio.

We're just trusting that these tables are of the right dimensions, when
we could do better by just using the struct directly. Let's expose the
struct txpwr_lmt_cfg_pair instead.
The table changes were made by using some Vim macros, so that should
help prevent any translation mistakes along the way.
Remaining work: get the 'void *data' out of the generic struct
rtw_table; all of these tables really deserve to be their own data
structure, with proper type fields.

Since this macro definition has different values in different chipset,
the current defined macro value is for 8822b. This will cause the
settings of 8822c be incorrect.

to make sure the value of different chipset is right.

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:
