Currently in mac80211 each STA object is represented
using sta_info datastructure with the associated
STA specific information and drivers access ieee80211_sta
part of it.
With MLO (Multi Link Operation) support being added
in 802.11be standard, though the association is logically
with a single Multi Link capable STA, at the physical level
communication can happen via different advertised
links (uniquely identified by Channel, operating class,
BSSID) and hence the need to handle multiple link
STA parameters within a composite sta_info object
called the MLD STA. The different link STA part of
MLD STA are identified using the link address which can
be same or different as the MLD STA address and unique
link id based on the link vif.
To support extension of such a model, the sta_info
datastructure is modified to hold multiple link STA
objects with link specific params currently within
sta_info moved to this new structure. Similarly this is
done for ieee80211_sta as well which will be accessed
within mac80211 as well as by drivers, hence trivial
driver changes are expected to support this.
For current non MLO supported drivers, only one link STA
is present and link information is accessed via 'deflink'
member.
For MLO drivers, we still need to define the APIs etc. to
get the correct link ID and access the correct part of
the station info.
Currently in mac80211, all link STA info are accessed directly
via deflink. These will be updated to access via link pointers
indexed by link id with MLO support patches, with link id
being 0 for non MLO supported cases.
Except for couple of macro related changes, below spatch takes
care of updating mac80211 and driver code to access to the
link STA info via deflink.

we have a set of methods to maintain fw features instead of using

into table, but the delay coding becomes regular pair of register address

To help firmware to recover RF register settings, we need to download

Add handling to fill struct rtw89_txpwr_limit and rtw89_txpwr_limit_ru
for 160Mhz bandwidth case. And enlarge RTW89_5G_BW_NUM because the chip
under planning can support 160Mhz bandwidth on 5G band.
Moreover, refine the filling of OFDM entry of struct rtw89_txpwr_limit
by using the value corresponding to primary channel.
E.g. center channel 38 (40Mhz bandwidth case)
Originally OFDM entry was filled by value corresponding to 'ch - 2' (36)
Now, we consider that it could be 36 or 40.
E.g. cneter channel 42 (80Mhz bandwidth case)
Originally OFDM entry was filled by value corresponding to 'ch - 6' (36)
Now, we consider that it could be 36, 40, 44, or 48.

We are planning to support more chipsets, e.g. 8852C. Before that, we
consider architecutre to handle multiple kinds of chipsets. Obviosuly,
based on original design, rtw89_core module will have large size even
if there is only one chipset under running. It is because all chipset
related things are put in rtw89_core now. To reduce such overhead, we
extract modules of rtw89 and adjust dependencies between modules.
The following assumes that 8852AE, 8852AU, and 8852CE are all supported,
we describe the difference before and after extraction.
[Before extraction]
-------------
|------------------------------------ | rtw89_usb |
V -------------
--------------------------------------- -------------
| rtw89_core (including 8852A, 8852C) | <--- | rtw89_pci |
--------------------------------------- -------------
The data of 8852A and 8852C are built in rtw89_core.
And rtw89_pci is the entry of 8852AE and 8852CE.
And rtw89_usb is the entry of 8852AU.
[After extraction]
------------- ----------------
|----------- | rtw89_usb | <-------- | rtw89_8852au |
| ------------- ----------------
V --------------- |
-------------- | | <---------------
| rtw89_core | <--- | rtw89_8852a |
-------------- | | <---------------
^ ^ --------------- |
| | ------------- ----------------
| | | | <-------- | rtw89_8852ae |
| |----------- | rtw89_pci | ----------------
| | | <-----------------
| ------------- |
| --------------- ----------------
|--------------- | rtw89_8852c | <------ | rtw89_8852ce |
--------------- ----------------
The data of 8852A/8852C is extracted to rtw89_8852a/rtw89_8852c.
And rtw89_pci/rtw89_usb handles only common flow of pci/usb bus.
Finally, 8852AE, 8852AU, and 8852CE have individual entry modules,
i.e. rtw89_8852ae, rtw89_8852au, and rtw89_8852ce correspondingly.

We used to fill in rx skbs' frequency field by mac80211's current
channel value. In some cases, mac80211 switches channel before all
rx packets have been processed. This results in incorrect bss info.
We fix this by filling in frequency field with channel index obtained
from hardware, then fix potential cck missing issue by skb's original
hw rate. After all fix is done, convert hw rate back to the supported
band rate index.

The RF register array is used to help firmware to restore RF settings.
The original code can potentially access out of range, if the size is
between (RTW89_H2C_RF_PAGE_SIZE * RTW89_H2C_RF_PAGE_NUM + 1) to
((RTW89_H2C_RF_PAGE_SIZE + 1) * RTW89_H2C_RF_PAGE_NUM). Fortunately,
current used size doesn't fall into the wrong case, and the size will not
change if we don't update RF parameter.

This driver named rtw89, which is the next generation of rtw88, supports
Realtek 8852AE 802.11ax 2x2 chip whose new features are OFDMA, DBCC,
Spatial reuse, TWT and BSS coloring; now some of them aren't implemented
though.
The chip architecture is entirely different from the chips supported by
rtw88 like RTL8822CE 802.11ac chip. First of all, register address ranges
are totally redefined, so it's impossible to reuse register definition. To
communicate with firmware, new H2C/C2H format is proposed. In order to have
better utilization, TX DMA flow is changed to two stages DMA. To provide
rich RX status information, additional RX PPDU packets are added.
Since there are so many differences mentioned above, we decide to propose
a new driver. It has many authors, they are listed in alphabetic order:
