The RTL8821AU firmware sends C2H_BT_INFO by itself when bluetooth
headphones are connected, but not when they are disconnected. This leads
to the coexistence code still using the A2DP algorithm long after the
headphones are disconnected, which means the wifi speeds are much lower
than they should be. Work around this by asking for updates every two
seconds if the chip is RTL8821AU.

Since chip_info has became const table, we must access them via const
pointer to avoid invalid writing.

To keep high sensitivity reaction, Bluetooth gaming controller will send
packet very frequently, it will make WLAN performance very poor. To solve
this situation, MIMO PS mechanism makes WLAN/BT own an antenna itself, WLAN
quits 2SS performance but it can get a stable 1SS performance and Bluetooth
gaming controller can keep sensitivity reaction at the same time.

Add toggle table related function to enhance WL throughput when WL coexist
with 4/18 HID.
The toggle table feature will toggle WL/BT priority table during WL slot,

Some AP will not follow the power save request, or it cannot stop
transmission until its queue is empty. It may bring the decreasing of
data rate.
WLAN firmware will count is the AP still leaked packet after power save
handshake was done or not to enable WLAN slot extend mechanism.
The extend WLAN slot mechanism will extend the WLAN slot after power save
handshake, 5 ms per times, maximum is 5 times to received the leaked packet
to avoid the rate lower down.
And if the transmission was already locked at CCK rate.
The extended WLAN slot can also increase the opportunity that we can
received the CCK's long packet and be released from CCK rate.
While BT multi-link status was finished, there is possible that it still
has some packet remained for seconds. Add a timer to remain the multi-link
mechanism to protect WLAN Rx.

Add considering for different WLAN beacon interval in coexistence
mechanism.
Because the WLAN beacon period may be not 100 ms, so it's necessary
to consider any beacon period and set timer according to the interval.

The original mechanism may cause A2DP glitch during WiFi connecting AP.
Because the original TDMA may decrease too much A2DP slot.

performed more well.

Add a set of logic with corresponding coexistence parameters to
handle the situation under BT inquiry/page.
We will set PSTDMA while WL-Busy + BT inquiry/page to separate
WL/BT slots. PSTDMA can protect WL data rate and BT performance.
If WL-Busy + BT inquiry/page and there was BT device paired,
We will set the mechanism to 4Slot PSTDMA.
In 4Slot PSTDMA, the paired devices can perform more smoothly
and prevent some issues trigger from insufficient data.
And to avoid A2DP glitch or disconnection, we will adjust ACL
data priority higher than inquiry/page.
In addition, we found sometimes BT inquiry/page still working
last for seconds after BT had notified inquiry/page finished.
It will lead to A2DP glitch cause of ACL data, inquiry/page
priority toggled. To fix the corner, we add a timer to remain
the inquiry/page status.
And we found WL busy/idle threshold is too sensitive,
it will keep switching in some weak network environment and
coexistence mechanism will switch between TDMA and PSTDMA.
The very frequently switching may destroyed not only the
handshake with AP, but BT performance. And it will trigger
some unexpected error.
To prevent the frequently switching, we add a timer to delay
the status change while WL busy switch to idle.

Add a new entry "coex_info" in debugfs to dump coex's states for
us to debug on coex's issues.
The basic concept for co-existence (coex, usually for WiFi + BT)
is to decide a strategy based on the current status of WiFi and
BT. So, it means the WiFi driver requires to gather information
from BT side and choose a strategy (TDMA/table/HW settings).
Althrough we can easily check the current status of WiFi, e.g.,
from kernel log or just dump the hardware registers, it is still
very difficult for us to gather so many different types of WiFi
states (such as RFE config, antenna, channel/band, TRX, Power
save). Also we will need BT's information that is stored in
"struct rtw_coex". So it is necessary for us to have a debugfs
that can dump all of the WiFi/BT information required.
Note that to debug on coex related issues, we usually need a
longer period of time of coex_info dump every 2 seconds (for
example, 30 secs, so we should have 15 times of coex_info's
dump).

Power amplifiers are not linear components, and require DPK to
reduce its nonlinearity. DPK is called Digital Pre-distortion
Calibration, can be used to compensate the output of power.
DPK tracking is in charge of tracking the thermal changes. And
it then shifts the power curve accordingly, which makes the
power output remains linear even if the PA works in different
temperature.
To perform DPK, the parameter table should also be updated.
And the table will be applied when device is powered on.
Then DPK will reference the values to calibrate.

Both RTL8822BE/RTL8822CE are WiFi + BT combo chips. Since
WiFi and BT use 2.4GHz to transmit, it is important to
make sure they run concurrently without interfering each
other. To achieve this, WiFi driver requires a mechanism
to collaborate with BT, whether they share the antenna(s)
or not.
The final decision made by the co-existence mechanism is
to choose a proper strategy, or called "tdma/table", and
inform either firmware or hardware of the strategy.
To choose a strategy, co-existence mechanism needs to
have enough information from WiFi and BT.
BT information is provided through firmware C2H.
The contents describe the current status of BT, such as
if BT is connected or is idle, or the profile that is
being used.
WiFi information can be provided by WiFi itself. The WiFi
driver will call various of "notify" functions each time
the state of WiFi changed, such as WiFi is going to switch
channel or is connected. Also WiFi driver can know if it
shares antenna with BT by reading efuse content. Antenna
configuration of the module will finally get a different
strategy.
Upon receiving any information from WiFi or BT, the WiFi
driver will run the co-existence mechanism immediately.
It will set the RF antenna configuration according to the
strategy through the TDMA H2C to firmware and a hardware
table. Based on the tdma/table, WiFi + BT should work with
each other, and having a better user experience.
