[PATCH v3 00/11] wifi: ath9k: add support for QCN550x

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patchset adds support for QCN550x. Compared to previous versions of
this patchset:

- Removed hidden dependencies on ah macro
  (see commit b3a663f0037d20e77bbafd9271a3d9dd0351059d)
- Done significantly more testing and performance improvements. In my
  informal testing, the 3x3 performance of this driver generally meets
  or exceeds the performance of stock firmwares, which was not the case
  for previous patchsets. The main source of the improvement was
  enabling the clock doubler.

Notes:

- While QCN5502 is a 4-stream device, ath9k only supports 3 streams, and
  that is unchanged.
- The QCN550x EEPROM format is different from other AR9003 devices due
  to the 4th stream. An abstraction layer has been added over the EEPROM
  to support both formats.
- This driver has been tested on the following devices:
  - Asus RT-ACRH12 (FCC ID: MSQ-RTACRH01)
    QCN5502 4x4 RX mode 1 (no XLNA) TX mode 1 (no XPA)
  - Netgear EX6400v2 (FCC ID: PY318300422)
    QCN5502 3x3 RX mode 1 (no XLNA) TX mode 1 (no XPA)
  - Netgear EX7300v2 (FCC ID: PY318300422)
    QCN5502 4x4 RX mode 1 (no XLNA) TX mode 1 (no XPA)
  - TP-Link Archer A9 v6 (FCC ID: TE7A9V6)
    QCN5502 4x4 RX mode 0 (XLNA) TX mode 1 (no XPA)
  - Netgear EX7300v1: QCA9558 (no obvious regression observed)
- No device has been tested that uses QCN5502 with XPA or 5GHz. I don't
  know if such devices exists.
