The already supported 8723d chip is very similar to 8703b/8723cs,
split code that can be shared into a new module. The spec definition
tables are combined into a struct so we only need one EXPORT_SYMBOL
for them all.

Add a sub-driver for SDIO based chipsets which implements the following
functionality:
- register accessors for 8, 16 and 32 bits for all states of the card
(including usage of 4x 8 bit access for one 32 bit buffer if the card
is not fully powered on yet - or if it's fully powered on then 1x 32
bit access is used)
- checking whether there's space in the TX FIFO queue to transmit data
- transfers from the host to the device for actual network traffic,
reserved pages (for firmware download) and H2C (host-to-card)
transfers
- receiving data from the device
- deep power saving state
The transmit path is optimized so DMA-capable SDIO host controllers can
directly use the buffers provided because the buffer's physical
addresses are 8 byte aligned.
The receive path is prepared to support RX aggregation where the
chipset combines multiple MAC frames into one bigger buffer to reduce
SDIO transfer overhead.

Register cfg80211_sar_capa with type NL80211_SAR_TYPE_POWER and four
frequency ranges for configurations in unit of 0.25 dBm. And handle
callback set_sar_specs.
Originally, TX power has three main parameters, i.e. power base,
power by rate, and power limit. The formula can be simply considered
as TX power = power base + min(power by rate, power limit). With the
support of SAR which can be treated as another power limit, there is
one more parameter for TX power. And the formula will evolve into
TX power = power base + min(power by rate, power limit, power sar).
Besides, debugfs tx_pwr_tbl is also refined to show SAR information.
The following is an example for the difference.
Before supporting SAR,
-----------------------------------
...
path rate pwr base (byr lmt ) rem
A CCK_1M 66(0x42) 78 -12 ( 12 -12) 0
A CCK_2M 66(0x42) 78 -12 ( 8 -12) 0
...
-----------------------------------
After supporting SAR and making some configurations,
-----------------------------------
...
path rate pwr base (byr lmt sar ) rem
A CCK_1M 62(0x3e) 78 -16 ( 12 -12 -16) 0
A CCK_2M 62(0x3e) 78 -16 ( 8 -12 -16) 0
...

The kernel test robot reports undefined reference after we report wakeup
reason to mac80211. This is because CONFIG_PM is not defined in the testing
configuration file. In fact, functions within wow.c are used if CONFIG_PM
is defined, so use CONFIG_PM to decide whether we build this file or not.

Wake on WLAN(wowlan) is a feature which allows devices
to be woken up from suspend state through wlan events.
When user enables wowlan feature and then let the device
enter suspend state, wowlan firmware will be loaded by
the driver and periodically monitors wifi packets.
Power consumption of wifi chip will be reduced in this
state.
If wowlan firmware detects that specific wlan event
happens, it will issue wakeup signal to trigger resume
process. Driver will load normal firmware and let wifi
chip return to the original state.
Currently supported wlan events include receiving magic packet,
rekey packet and deauth packet, and disconnecting from AP.

Enable MU-MIMO transmit beamformee support for chipset 8822b and 8822c.
If the driver is in station mode and associated with an AP, and the
capabilities of both meet the requirement of beamforming, driver will
run as a beamformee and the corresponding chip settings will be set.
In addition, module parameter support_bf is added to enable or disable
beamforming. Sometimes driver will need to disable for inter-operate
issues, and it would be easier for driver to debug.

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:
