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:

rtw88: 8723d: Organize chip TX/RX FIFO
TX FIFO size is 32k and it was divided into 256 pages with 128 bytes.
A boundary is used to split pages into two parts, head part is used to
store TX packets coming from host, and tail part is reserved for special
purposes, such as beacon packet, null data packet and so on.
The TX packets coming from host have many categories, such as VO, VI, BE,
BK, MG and etc. When going into head part of TX FIFO, they are classified
to four priority queue named low, normal, high and extra priority queues.
Each priority queue occupies predefined number of page, if a certain
priority queue is full, TX packet will store into PUB priority queue.
Similarly, RX FIFO is 16k and split into two parts, head part is used to
store RX packets, and tail part is 128 bytes and used to store report.
Thus, we fill this boundary to register as well.

rtw88: 8822c: support FW crash dump when FW crash
Although FW crash logs are already supported for dumping in driver, the
logs may not be sufficient to analyze field issues. To improve this part,
we add a support to dump FW memory.
When driver receives FW crash notifications, driver uses DDMA, which is a
HW ability, to copy specified FW memory to FW fifo. Driver can then dump
these information from FW fifo. With this support, not only FW crash log
but also specified FW memory will be dumped while FW crash. Besides,
specified registers are also dumped.
This feature is implemeted on 8822C first due to difference of FW layouts
between ICs. In addition, we add a debugfs to trigger FW crash. It can
simulate the process of crash, dump and reset. Through it, we can also
check if a reset is ongoing.

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:
