Different interfaces have its own link-related power save mechanism.
Such as PCI can enter L1 state based on the traffic on the link, and
sometimes driver needs to enable/disable it to avoid some issues, like
throughput degrade when PCI trying to enter L1 state even if driver is
having heavy traffic.
For now, rtw88 only supports PCIE chips, and they just need to disable
ASPM L1 when driver is not in power save mode, such as IPS and LPS.

By Realtek's design, there are two HW modules associated for CLKREQ,
one is responsible to follow the PCIE host settings, and another
is to actually working on it. But the module that is actually working
on it is default disabled, and driver should enable that module if
host and device have successfully sync'ed with each other.
The module is default disabled because sometimes the host does not
support it, and if there is any incorrect settings (ex. CLKREQ# is
not Bi-Direction), device can be lost and disconnected to the host.
So driver should first check after host and device are sync'ed, and
the host does support the function and set it in configuration
space, then driver can turn on the HW module to working on it.

The LPS threshold was set to 2, means driver will leave LPS
mode if there is more than 2 frames TX/RX for every 2 seconds.
This makes driver enter/leave LPS frequently even if we just
"ping -i1" to the others.
Apparently we do not want to leave LPS mode if there is only
some background traffics or web surfing. By experiment, set
this to 50 is a more reasonable value to lower the over all

With shallow buffer size, certain BT devices have active

To resolve this issue, this commit splits TUs into 4-slots
instead of 2-slot for all of the A2DP related coexistence
strategies. That makes BT have higher opportunity to fill

When downloading the reserved page, the first page always contains
a beacon for the firmware to reference. For non-beaconing modes such
as station mode, also put a blank skb with length=1.
And for the beaconing modes, driver will get a real beacon with a
length approximate to the page size. But as the beacon is always put
at the first page, it does not need a tx_desc, because the TX path
will generate one when TXing the reserved page to the hardware. So we
could allocate a buffer with a size smaller than the reserved page,
when using memcpy() to copy the content of reserved page to the buffer,
the over-sized reserved page will violate the kernel memory.
To fix it, add the tx_desc before memcpy() the reserved packets to
the buffer, then we can get SKBs with correct length when counting
the pages in total. And for page 0, count the extra tx_desc_sz that
the TX path will generate. This way, the first beacon that allocated
without tx_desc can be counted with the extra tx_desc_sz to get
actual pages it requires.

Sometimes mac80211 will ask us to flush the hardware queues.
To flush them, first we need to get the corresponding priority queues
from the RQPN mapping table.
Then we can check the available pages are equal to the originally
reserved pages, which means the hardware has returned all of the pages
it used to transmit.
Note that now we only check for 100 ms for the priority queue, but

Based on the mac80211's TXQ implementation, TX-AMSDU can
be used to get higher MAC efficiency. To make mac80211
aggregate MSDUs, low level driver just need to leave skbs
in the TXQ, and mac80211 will try to aggregate them if
possible. As driver will schedule a tasklet when the TX
queue is woke, until the tasklet being served, there will
have some skbs in the queue if traffic is heavy.
Driver can control the max AMSDU size depending on the
current bit rate used by hardware/firmware. The higher
rates are used, the larger AMSDU size can be.
It is tested that can achieve higher T-Put at higher rates.
If the environment is relatively clean, and the bit_rate
is high enough, we can get about 80Mbps improvement.
For lower bit rates, not much gain can we get, so leave
the max_amsdu length low to prevent aggregation.

the hardware has its own rate control algorithm. And what driver needs
to do is to choose an RA mask according the peer's capabilities.
But the hardware is not able to setup BA session by itself. So driver
requires to initiate tx BA session for hardware, and tells it if it is
possible to transmit AMPDU. The hardware can then aggregate MPDUs.
And the size of AMPDU is controlled by the TX descriptor and the
register value. Since the TX descriptor will reference the max AMPDU
size from ieee80211_sta::ht_cap::ampdu_factor, just set the register
value to 0x3f, and let it be controlled by TX descriptor.

up the inform driver to serve the queue.
Now driver only supports PCI interface ICs, there's no specific
traffic control for each queue, just schedule a tasklet, and
dump all of the packets at once to the DMA ring. Instead of TX
the packets whenever TX queue is woke, tasklet handler can have
more packets dumped to the device, takes advantage of burst
write with DMA engine.

Driver needs to wait for firmware to restore hardware setting
to active mode after leaving lps.
After getting H2C from driver for leaving lps, firmware will
issue null packet without PS bit to inform AP driver is active,
and then restore REG_TCR Register if AP has receiced null packet.
But the transmission of null packet may cost much more time
in noisy environment. If driver does not wait for firmware,
null packet with PS bit could be sent due to incorrect REG_TCR setting.
And AP will be confused.
In our test, 100ms is enough for firmware to send null packet
to AP. If REG_TCR Register is still wrong after 100ms, we will
modify it directly, force the PS bit to be cleared

There really is no need to make drivers call the
ieee80211_start_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe() function and then
schedule the worker if all we want is to set a bit.
Add a new return value (that was previously considered
invalid) to indicate that the driver is immediately
ready for the session, and make drivers use it. The
only drivers that remain different are the Intel ones
as they need to negotiate more with the firmware.

The module parameter rtw_fw_support_lps is misleading. It
is not used to represent the firmware's property, but to
determine if driver wants to ask firmware to enter LPS.
However, driver should better enable/disable PS through
cfg80211_ops::set_power_mgmt instead.
For example, one could use iw command to set PS state.
$ sudo iw wlanX set power_save [on/off]
So rtw_fw_support_lps should be removed because it is
misleading and useless. Instead of checking the parameter,
set PS mode according to IEEE80211_CONF_PS.

Compare with LCLK mode, PG mode saves more power, by turning
off more circuits. Therefore, to recover from PG mode, driver
needs to backup some information into rsvd page. Such as CAM
entries, DPK results.
As CAM entries can change, it is required to re-download CAM
entries after set_key.

Add a module parameter to select deep PS mode. And the mode
cannot be changed after the module has been inserted and probed.
If anyone wants to change the deep mode, should change the mode
and probe the device again to setup the changed deep mode.
When the device is probed, driver will check the deep PS mode
with different IC's PS mode suppotability. If none of the
PS mode is matched, the deep PS mode is changed to NONE,
means deep PS is disabled.
