[PATCH 5.10 v2 3/3] commit e109e3617e5d ("rtw88: rtw8821c: enable rfe 6 devices")

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

 



These commits can fix the problem of wifi not loading properly. At
least in my 5.10 kernel environment, the following error message is
reported:

rtw_8821ce 0000:01:00.0: rfe 6 isn't supported
rtw_8821ce 0000:01:00.0: failed to setup chip efuse info
rtw_8821ce 0000:01:00.0: failed to setup chip information

so I think that 5.10 need to merge these commits.

The patch 1/3 and patch 2/3 need to be merged synchronously, otherwise it
will cause OE and then kernel exception.

Ping-Ke Shih answered[1] a question for a user about an rtl8821ce device that
reported RFE 6, which the driver did not support. Ping-Ke suggested a possible
fix, but the user never reported back.

A second user discovered the above thread and tested the proposed fix.
Accordingly, I am pushing this change, even though I am not the author.
