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.

compat-wireless/backports now contains a bcm47xx_nvram.h file to
backport some of the functions in it which are used by the bcmfmac
driver. This file just checks for the kernel versions and provide an
empty implementations on older kernel versions. This is OK on most
systems, but on bcm47xx / bcm53xx systems we want to call the real
functions here. This commit removes the file from backports in our
build process like we do it with the bcma and ssb header files. Instead
we add a recent version into our kernel so all code uses only one
header file. On bcm47xx / bcm53xx the real implementations of this code
will be used.

The driver only supports wl18xx-fw-4.bin and does not support the old
firmware wl18xx-fw-3.bin and more.
The wl18xx-conf.bin file was removed upstream it does not fit all
devices any more, see this on how to generate one:

If someone has a config file for the common platforms with the wifi nic
OpenWrt uses please send a patch.

The ipw2x00 drivers assume that the system they are running is little
endian, and access everything in native byte order. When run on a big
endian system, everything breaks apart.
Since fixing this is non trivial on a first glance, disable them for
big endian targets.

Subtarget legacy is supposed to support all ssb SoC except for BCM4705.
There are few BCM4703 devices with 802.11n supprt (WRT160N v1.0, v1.1).
Few BCM4704 devices with 802.11n: ASUS WL-500W, Linksys WRT150N v1.0 &
v1.1, Linksys WRT300N v1.0, Netgear WNDR3300 v1, WNR834B v1 & v2.
It seems we have to enable N-PHY for legacy as well to support above.

This patch adds a config option to enable DFS in ath9k and ath10k
drivers (with ath10k you need the AP-branch firmware). I'm not entirely
sure about the regulatory compliance issues, though. As far as I
understand, enabling the DFS_CERTIFIED config options implies that the
device is certified for DFS. No doubt the original firmware has obtained
such a certification, but not with the open source drivers. I suppose
that as long as this is disabled in default builds (like ATH_USER_REGD)
everything should be fine, but it would be nice to have out-of-the-box
OpenWrt support for DFS. I'm also not sure whether the description of
the configuration option should say something about regulatory compliance.
