We had introduced delay main work logic to avoid processing
interrupts when Rx pending packet count reaches high threshold.
interrupt processing is restarted later when packet count
reduces lower threashold. This helped to reduce unnecessary
overhead and improve throughput for SD and PCIe chipsets.
As there are no interrupts for USB, we will skip this logic for
USB chipsets.

upon calling .disconnect() the interface state may still be

In four of the rtlwifi drivers, the Makefile contains superfluous

regardless of the corresponding Kconfig option.
If the corresponding option is set to 'y', the build system will then
see the object file in obj-m and obj-y, which leads to a compilation
as a built-in only. Even though this leads to the desired behavior,
the unconditional appearance in obj-m is confusing for someone reading
the Makefile.

When another vif is also running during a channel switch, we need to
use a session protection when we move to the new channel, so that we
don't miss the beacons. Without this, sometimes the other vif
repeatedly gets time exactly when we should be hearing the beacons,
preventing channel switch from completing. Adding a session
protection that lasts from the moment the channel changes until 2
TBTTs later, ensures that we will hear the beacons on the destination
channel.

We need to call ieee80211_chswitch_done() ourselves just when the

Instead of using a hardcoded number of TUs before beacon 0 as the time
to start the absence and actual channel switch, calculate it in
relation to the beacon interval. We use 10 TUs + beacon interval
before beacon 0 to target a bit before beacon 1. This gives us enough
time to switch to the new channel before the AP/GO switches.

Add an absent time event when pre_channel_switch is called and use the

packets while the AP/GO is performing its actual switch.

functions to decide whether the context switch flows need to be
executed. In this way we make the chanctx switch flow more generic,

The spec requires to decrement the CSA counters based on TBTT,
regardless if the beacon was actually transmitted. Previously, the fw
would send beacon notifications only for successfully transmitted
beacons. This behavior resulted in inaccurate CSA countdown. In order
to address this issue, the fw was changed to send beacon
notifications also for not transmitted beacons. Such notifications
have TX_STATUS_INTERNAL_ABORT (0x92).
Don't start the CSA countdown before first successfully transmitted
beacon, in order to guarantee that the CSA is announced for a
