[PATCH v2 0/9] rtw88: Add support for RTL8723CS/RTL8703B

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

 



This patch set adds a driver for RTL8723CS, which is used in the
Pinephone and a few other devices. It is a combined wifi/bluetooth
device, the wifi part is called RTL8703B. There is already a mainline
driver for the bluetooth part. RTL8703B is similar to the RTL8723D
chip already supported by rtw88. I've been using the out-of-tree
rtl8723cs driver as reference.

Station and monitor mode work well enough for daily use on my
Pinephone, I have not tested other modes yet. WOW firmware is
declared, but WOW isn't implemented yet. RX rates stay fairly low
still.

Ping-Ke Shih kindly offered to add the required s-o-b for the firmware
and help get it into linux-firmware when it's time, for testing now
please see the code I used to extract firmware from the out-of-tree
driver [1].

I'm trying to follow the "one file per patch" rule for new drivers
while integrating with the existing rtw88 code, please let me know if
I should split it differently. I'll be including a few questions for
reviewers in the relevant patch mails.

Thanks to Ping-Ke Shih for advice, and Ondřej Jirman for debug logs!

v2:
  * Parse PHY status using struct instead of macros
  * Prefer MAC from EFUSE if available, move retrieving MAC from DT to
    a separate function
  * Tidy up wait for IQK to be done, replace mdelay loop with
    read_poll_timeout
  * Set dual author for rtw88_8723x
  * Add missing "static" to rtw8723x function declarations, fixes
    build failure when not built as a module
  * Various style fixes
