Originally, MCC just took periodic NoA into account. When the connected GO
announces non-periodic NoA and GC side is during MCC, sometimes GC cannot
receive beacons well if the MCC scheduling conflicts with the non-periodic
NoA planning. After the loss exceeds the tolerable amount, beacon filter
will report connection loss. However, in this case, the loss is acceptable.
So now, MCC will calculate the range of non-periodic NoA. And then, don't
care beacon loss during the range.
Besides, rtw89_mcc_fill_role_limit() only makes sense for GC. Remove the
redundant check of GO.

In PS mode, firmware needs hardware parameters related to channel info

To enter PS under MLO, for each rtwvif, driver sends H2C command to tell

The relation bewteen mac80211 link_id and our link instance is like below.
|\
(link_id) | \
0 -------- | |
1 -------- | | ------ instance-0 (link_id: X) -> work on HW band 0
2 -------- | |
... | | ------ instance-1 (link_id: Y) -> work on HW band 1
14 -------- | |
| /
|/
N.B. For cases of non-MLD connection, we set our link instance-0
active with link_id 0. So, our code flow can be compatible between
non-MLD connection and MLD connection.
Based on above, we tweak entire driver architecture first. But, we don't
dynamically enable multiple links here. That will be handled separately.
Most of the things changed here are changing flows to iterate all active
links and read bss_conf/link_sta data according to target link. And, for
cases of scan, ROC, WOW, we use instance-0 to deal with the request.
There are some things listed below, which work for now but need to extend
before multiple active links.
1. tx path
select suitable link instance among multiple active links
2. rx path
determine rx link by PPDU instead of always link instance-0
3. CAM
apply MLD pairwise key to any active links dynamically
Besides, PS code cannot easily work along with tweaking architecture. With
supporting MLO flag (currently false), we disable PS first and will fix it
by another commit in the following.

rtw89_8852ce 0000:04:00.0: queue 0 txwd 103 is not idle
If suspend/resume many times that firmware will download failed and

To fix these issues, We removed the rtw89_hci_disable_intr() and
rtw89_hci_enable_intr() during rtw89_wow_swap_fw() to prevent add packet
offload can't receive c2h back due to interrupt disable. Only 8852C and
8922A needs to disable interrupt before downloading fw.
Furthermore, we avoid using low power HCI mode on WoWLAN mode, to prevent
interrupt enabled, then get interrupt and calculate RXBD mismatched due to
software RXBD index already reset but hardware RXBD index not yet.

Besides, chanctx listener struct is pre-added in chip info. Each

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 28977e790b ("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.

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.
We now implement WoWLAN function in rtw8852ae and rtw8852ce chip.
Currently supported WLAN events include receiving magic packet,

In low power mode, we need to pause PCI to configure IMR and PCI ring
index registers accordingly, because the regular registers are power-off
in this mode.
In the transition moment named paused in code, we can't touch ring index,
so don't kick off DMA immediately. Instead, queue them into pending queue,
and kick off after the moment.
There are three low power modes, which are RF off/clock gate/power gate,
but PCI enter low power mode in later two modes only. So, add a mask
to achieve this.

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:
