Hi Ping-Ke,
I have sent a v4 that supersedes this series, before you review v3, so
you do not spend time on this one. As you suggested, I am noting it here
on the v3 cover.
v4 re-adds two patches that were dropped in v2, both on the TX report and
leave-LPS paths. Testing on slower ARM SDIO hosts, Peter Robinson on the
RFC and another tester on a Rockchip RK3288 board, reproduced "failed to
get tx report from firmware" and "firmware failed to leave lps state",
which my faster x86 host never hit. One of the two simply extends the
timeout from commit c80788f7c5ae ("wifi: rtw88: increase TX report
timeout to fix race condition"), which you already acked for the
RTL8723DU, to the RTL8723BS, since they hit the same off-channel-scan
race. The other routes the vendor firmware's management TX report
events so the LPS leave check is left alone.
Other patches from v3 remain unchanged.
v4:
