wifi: rtw88: simplify vif iterators Since all iterators called by 'rtw_iterate_vifs()' never uses 'mac' argument, it may be omitted, and 'struct rtw_vifs_entry' may be simplified accordingly.

wifi: rtw88: iterate over vif/sta list non-atomically The driver uses ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_atomic() and ieee80211_iterate_stations_atomic() in several places and does register accesses in the iterators. This doesn't cope with upcoming USB support as registers can only be accessed non-atomically. Split these into a two stage process: First use the atomic iterator functions to collect all active interfaces or stations on a list, then iterate over the list non-atomically and call the iterator on each entry.

rtw88: handle and recover when firmware crash 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.

rtw88: support wowlan feature for 8822c 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.

rtw88: new Realtek 802.11ac driver 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: Ping-Ke Shih <pkshih@realtek.com> Tzu-En Huang <tehuang@realtek.com> Yan-Hsuan Chuang <yhchuang@realtek.com> Reviewed-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Brian Norris <briannorris@chromium.org> Tested-by: Brian Norris <briannorris@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Yan-Hsuan Chuang <yhchuang@realtek.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>
