Hi @morrownr , a simple change is needed for this driver to work in kernel v6.9. Hope this is helpful!

Thanks.

@5kft

Do you have an adapter based on the rtl8821au chip? That is, the version with blurtooth support?

One of the guys working on the in-kernel code is asking. None of working on the driver have adapters with blurtooth.

Hi @morrownr , unfortunately not - my 8821aus are all Wi-Fi only...

@5kft

The new driver is available for testing and reporting. See issue 133.

See you in issue 133 when you have time.

Unfortunately I'm encountering build issues with the new rtw88 driver, when targeting my embedded ARM-based boards. I added a comment to https://github.com/morrownr/8821au-20210708/issues/133#issuecomment-2103774443 regarding this.

I'm watching. Mr. Finger will need to work you on that as it is his repo. I don't have the background regarding how he has set everything up and his setup is likely never tested in the way you are using it. I'm just testing and working on parts of the code.

Yeah, I'm not losing sleep over this, as your driver works perfectly for me. It'll be easier to give his stuff a try when he syncs his latest changes over to linux-next (it is trivial for me to build from that, rather than piecing together the changes directly from his github).

Copy all. I will let you know when he sends the patches to be included in wireless-next.
