fd90bf90e67c rtw88: import driver based on Linux 6.8
As these are LinuxKPI, are they usable in arm64.aarch64 ?
I have an asus ac-53u nano wifi usb nib I'd like to get working
on a rpi4 with -current. Possible?
Linux will run it according to
https://linux-hardware.org/?id=usb:0b05-184c using
drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw88/rtw8822bu.c
There is no USB support yet, given the USB support in LinuxKPI more than
a adecade ago was intermangled into native support and doesn't allow us
to extend it; it needs a good re-write; also almost nothing uses it
anymore these days so it could be done without breaking too much.
I had a talk with Hans in Vienna in 2022 about it about how to proceed.
I ripped things apart and made it compile, but that disconnected the
LinuxKPI from the actual USB stack and so far no one has done the works
to finish this.
I do have multiple USB rtw88 (and rtw89) sticks as well to test and keep
importing the USB bits into FreeBSD, as I assumed they'll be the new
"urun"/"urtwn" at some point.
Let me know if you want to hack a bit on this and I'll go and find the
old prototype.
