OpenWrt is often used to develop or test new devices
Some users might want to test and help to improve
this new driver
upstream commit notice 26f1fad29ad973b0fb26a9ca3dcb2a73dde781aa
New driver: rtl8xxxu (mac80211)
This is an alternate driver for a number of Realtek WiFi USB devices,
including RTL8723AU, RTL8188CU, RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, and RTL8192CU.
It was written from scratch utilizing the Linux mac80211 stack.
After spending months cleaning up the vendor provided rtl8723au
driver, which comes with it's own 802.11 stack included, I decided to
rewrite this driver from the bottom up.
Many thanks to Johannes Berg for 802.11 insights and help and Larry
Finger for help with the vendor driver.
The full git log for the development of this driver can be found here:
git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jes/linux.git
branch rtl8723au-mac80211
This driver is still under development, but has proven to be very
stable for me. It currently supports station mode only. It has support
for OFDM and CCK rates. It does lack certain features found in the
staging driver, such as power management, AMPDU, and 40MHz channel
support. In addition it does not support AD-HOC, AP, and monitor mode
support at this point.
The driver is known to work with the following devices:
Lenovo Yoga (rtl8723au)
TP-Link TL-WN823N (rtl8192cu)
Etekcity 6R (rtl8188cu)
Daffodil LAN03 (rtl8188cu)
Alfa AWUS036NHR (rtl8188ru)
Compile tested only

We don't use Kernel drivers but ucode -16 is
usable on Kernel 4.3+ - with backports and mac80211
this should work on older Kernel versions too.
Intel does not provide a changelog.

Principal purpose is to prevent the error message
ifxmips_ptm_vdsl.c:281:ptm_hard_start_xmit: not in showtime
which is printed at least once per second to the serial console, if the
ptm interface is not in showtime, but a processes already sends
packages over that interface. This happens for adsl as well as vdsl
over ptm.
It's pppd which sends packages over the ptm device before in showtime.
As far as I can see, pppd is started unconditionally since netif can
not gather the link status of the ptm network interface.

This prevents the unconditionally start of pppd since netifd will be
triggered if the device goes into showtime. The same applies to lost
showtime as well.
In compare to the ptm driver, this changeset isn't strictly required,
since the "not in showtime" message is limited to the debug loglevel.
But it reduces the amount of ppp related messages significant.

Since kernel 4.2, DRBG is the default crypto API RNG, replacing krng. As
DRBG is not enabled, there is no crypto API RNG available when running
kernel 4.2 or later. Because of this, IPsec SAs fail to install. In
strongSwan, this results in a vague error that is difficult to debug:
received netlink error: No such file or directory (2)
Solve this by adding DRBG to the kmod-crypto-rng package. As enabling
DRBG in the kernel config also enables the Jitterentropy RNG, include it
in kmod-crypto-rng instead of having it in a separate package.
