Subject: [PATCH v2 0/8] wifi: rtw89: generalize download firmware flow to support WiFi 7 chips
Date: Fri, 1 Sep 2023 15:39:48 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230901073956.54203-1-pkshih@realtek.com> (raw)
WiFi 7 chips can download BB MCU firmware via the same path as existing
WiFi CPU firmware, and we need to check them successful after downloading,
so use a corresponding hardware bit to confirm certain firmware is ready.
To reuse the flow, uses mac_gen pointers to adapt WiFi 6/7 chips with
different settings and checking rules. Also, refine flow to support
download firmware one by one. Then, changes of flow look like
1. initial setup --> no logic change
2. download WiFi CPU firmware --> 2. for all firmware suits
2.1. download WiFi CPU firmware &
check ready
2.2. download BB MCU firmware &
check ready
3. check ready by status code --> no logic change
v2:
- correct patch 3/8 that I miss a change from internal commit
