ath11k: driver for Qualcomm IEEE 802.11ax devices
ath11k is a new driver for Qualcomm IEEE 802.11ax devices, first supporting only IPQ8074 SoC using the shared memory AHB bus. ath11k uses mac80211 and supports AP, Station and Mesh modes. Even though ath11k has some similar code as with ath10k (especially the WMI layer) it was concluded to be simpler to have a "clean start" for ath11k code base and not try to share the code with ath10k. This makes maintenance easier and avoids major changes in ath10k, which would have significantly increased the risk of regressions in existing setups. Even though the driver is very similar with ath10k but there are major differences as well. The datapath is completely different. ath11k supports multiple MACs, called "soc" in the firmware interface. And there's only one WMI interface to support. Currently ath11k supports only IEEE 802.11ac mode, but patches for 802.11ax are available and they will be submitted after ath11k is accepted to upstream. The firmware images are available from ath11k-firmware repository but they will be also submitted to linux-firmware: https://github.com/kvalo/ath11k-firmware This was tested with firmware version WLAN.HK.2.1.0.1-00629-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1. The driver has had multiple authors who are listed in alphabetical order below.
