In particular it does not yet support 40MHz channels 168c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci and power management. However it should have a smaller 178c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci memory footprint than the vendor drivers and benefits 188c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci from the in kernel mac80211 stack. 198c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci 208c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci It can coexist with drivers from drivers/staging/rtl8723au, 218c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci drivers/staging/rtl8192u, and drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi, 228c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci but you will need to control which module you wish to load. 238c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci 248c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will 258c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci be called r8xxxu.
