and these issues are often critical with low failure rate, add more

Adaptive Frequency Hopping(AFH) is a method of transmitting
radio signals by rapidly changing the carrier frequency among
many distinct frequencies, which can avoid interference.

Some register definition and bit definition were incorrect.
e.g. REG_BT_COEX_V2 should be word alignment to meet the coding style.
e.g. set REG_BT_TDMA_TIME[5:0]=0x5,
But the original is to set REG_BT_TDMA_TIME[7:0]=0x5.
This will cause unexpected hardware behavior.

BT firmware will report BLE-HID and BLE-RCU in different profile.
We can distinguish the two profile from BT info now.
Add the coexistence for BLE-HID coexistence,
it can make BLE HID work more smoothly.
BLE-HID need to Tx/Rx packet more frequently to respond
user operation, but RCU doesn't.
In the case of RCU coexistence, it will make Wi-Fi have a
higher priority to earn more Wi-Fi throughput.
If BLE-HID go for the same case,
it will make user feel mouse is lagging.
Desired BT firmware BT-COEX version: 0x1c
Desired WL firmware version: 9.9

Rtw88 currently has a function to dump reserved page section of the
firmware fifo. Reserved page is just part of the firmware fifo, there
are multiple sections in the firmware fifo for different usages, such as
firmware rx fifo and tx fifo.
This commit adds a function to check not only the reserved page section
but also other parts of the firmware fifo. In addition, we need to dump
firmware fifo to dump the debug log message if firmware crashes.

Add a set of logic with corresponding coexistence parameters to
handle the situation under BT inquiry/page.
We will set PSTDMA while WL-Busy + BT inquiry/page to separate
WL/BT slots. PSTDMA can protect WL data rate and BT performance.
If WL-Busy + BT inquiry/page and there was BT device paired,
We will set the mechanism to 4Slot PSTDMA.
In 4Slot PSTDMA, the paired devices can perform more smoothly
and prevent some issues trigger from insufficient data.
And to avoid A2DP glitch or disconnection, we will adjust ACL
data priority higher than inquiry/page.
In addition, we found sometimes BT inquiry/page still working
last for seconds after BT had notified inquiry/page finished.
It will lead to A2DP glitch cause of ACL data, inquiry/page
priority toggled. To fix the corner, we add a timer to remain
the inquiry/page status.
And we found WL busy/idle threshold is too sensitive,
it will keep switching in some weak network environment and
coexistence mechanism will switch between TDMA and PSTDMA.
The very frequently switching may destroyed not only the
handshake with AP, but BT performance. And it will trigger
some unexpected error.
To prevent the frequently switching, we add a timer to delay
the status change while WL busy switch to idle.

This reverts commit 07d0f5534935e2daf63a4e1012af13d68e089fed.
For rtw88 driver, the SDIO is going to be supported, so there is
no need to remove the SDIO related power sequence settings. And
while the power sequence parser will pass in the mask of the HCI,
the SDIO part will not be used to set registers accordingly.
Moreover, the power sequence table is released as a whole package,
so the next time if we are going to update, the SDIO settings will
be overwritten. So, revert this now.

Add a new entry "coex_info" in debugfs to dump coex's states for
us to debug on coex's issues.
The basic concept for co-existence (coex, usually for WiFi + BT)
is to decide a strategy based on the current status of WiFi and
BT. So, it means the WiFi driver requires to gather information
from BT side and choose a strategy (TDMA/table/HW settings).
Althrough we can easily check the current status of WiFi, e.g.,
from kernel log or just dump the hardware registers, it is still
very difficult for us to gather so many different types of WiFi
states (such as RFE config, antenna, channel/band, TRX, Power
save). Also we will need BT's information that is stored in
"struct rtw_coex". So it is necessary for us to have a debugfs
that can dump all of the WiFi/BT information required.
Note that to debug on coex related issues, we usually need a
longer period of time of coex_info dump every 2 seconds (for
example, 30 secs, so we should have 15 times of coex_info's
dump).

This commit adds several Tx/Rx physical information to phy_info

information, such as Tx/Rx rate, RSSI, EVM,SNR, etc. The
information is gotten from the packets of Tx/Rx path. It has
no impact for the performance of 8822B/8822C.

packet requires software decryption or not. And software
decryption is required when the packet was encrypted and the
hardware failed to decrypt it.
So, GET_RX_DESC_SWDEC() is negative does not mean that this

To actually see if the packet is decrypted, driver needs to
further check if the hardware has successfully decrypted it,
with a specific type of encryption algorithm.

Power amplifiers are not linear components, and require DPK to
reduce its nonlinearity. DPK is called Digital Pre-distortion
Calibration, can be used to compensate the output of power.
DPK tracking is in charge of tracking the thermal changes. And
it then shifts the power curve accordingly, which makes the
power output remains linear even if the PA works in different
temperature.
To perform DPK, the parameter table should also be updated.
And the table will be applied when device is powered on.
Then DPK will reference the values to calibrate.

Both RTL8822BE/RTL8822CE are WiFi + BT combo chips. Since
WiFi and BT use 2.4GHz to transmit, it is important to
make sure they run concurrently without interfering each
other. To achieve this, WiFi driver requires a mechanism
to collaborate with BT, whether they share the antenna(s)
or not.
The final decision made by the co-existence mechanism is
to choose a proper strategy, or called "tdma/table", and
inform either firmware or hardware of the strategy.
To choose a strategy, co-existence mechanism needs to
have enough information from WiFi and BT.
BT information is provided through firmware C2H.
The contents describe the current status of BT, such as
if BT is connected or is idle, or the profile that is
being used.
WiFi information can be provided by WiFi itself. The WiFi
driver will call various of "notify" functions each time
the state of WiFi changed, such as WiFi is going to switch
channel or is connected. Also WiFi driver can know if it
shares antenna with BT by reading efuse content. Antenna
configuration of the module will finally get a different
strategy.
Upon receiving any information from WiFi or BT, the WiFi
driver will run the co-existence mechanism immediately.
It will set the RF antenna configuration according to the
strategy through the TDMA H2C to firmware and a hardware
table. Based on the tdma/table, WiFi + BT should work with
each other, and having a better user experience.

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:
