27af5ad added the CFG80211_VERSION make variable for OpenWrt builds that
use a newer mac80211 backport than the target kernel, but it is only
described in a Makefile comment. Document how to pass it from an OpenWrt
package Makefile, link the notes from the installation steps, and add
the build script and the kernel/backports combinations verified for
issue #94.

The spec used the pinned commit hash as Version, and rpm does not order
hashes by commit history: 51b7b6e sorts after c8327ea, and 13baa9b after
e93a7d2, so a newer snapshot could be treated as an older package.
Version snapshots as 1.0.0^<date>git<commit>, where 1.0.0 is the DKMS
PACKAGE_VERSION, and add Epoch 1 so every snapshot sorts after all of
the earlier hash versions. Checked with rpm 4.18: the spec parses and
the new EVR compares newer than every previous Version.

The spec still pins e93a7d2, so Bazzite builds miss the fixes merged
since: the Linux 7.1+ TDLS discovery response length (31b726a), the
SUN60IW2P1 USB transfer settings (9594c5c), OpenWrt cfg80211 backport
version handling (27af5ad) and the 6.12 stable set_monitor_channel()
prototype (#97).
Pin 3e9a025, the merge of #97. The pinned tree builds all three modules
against Linux 7.2.6 headers.

cfg80211_ops.set_monitor_channel() gained a "struct net_device *dev"
parameter in mainline 6.13, and the change was backported to the 6.12
stable series starting with 6.12.101. Debian 13 ships 6.12.107, so the
existing ">= 6.13.0" guards select the old prototype there and the build
fails with -Wincompatible-pointer-types:
rwnx_main.c: error: initialization of
'int (*)(struct wiphy *, struct net_device *, struct cfg80211_chan_def *)'
from incompatible pointer type
'int (*)(struct wiphy *, struct cfg80211_chan_def *)'
[-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
This is the failure reported in #96 for Debian 13 trixie.
Introduce AICWF_CFG80211_SET_MONITOR_CHANNEL_HAS_DEV in rwnx_compat.h,
defined at AICWF_CFG80211_VERSION_CODE >= 6.12.101, and gate the nine
set_monitor_channel call sites on it instead of comparing against 6.13.0.
The threshold covers both the 6.12 backport and mainline 6.13, while
kernels 6.11 and earlier 6.12.x keep the old prototype. The check now
lives in one place and follows the existing AICWF_CFG80211_VERSION_CODE
convention, so OpenWrt builds can override it with CFG80211_VERSION.
The MODULE_IMPORT_NS guard at rwnx_main.c that also checks 6.13.0 is
unrelated and is left untouched.
Verified with clean builds against linux-headers 5.15.0-191,
6.1.0-53, 6.8.0-139, 6.11.0-8 and 6.12.107+deb13.
Allow CFG80211_VERSION to select wireless API signatures independently of the target kernel. Keep native kernel builds on their existing version checks.
Also guard the WEXT-only label and replace overlapping firmware path formatting with bounded appends so OpenWrt builds pass with Werror.
Validated all three modules against OpenWrt Linux 6.12.94 with backports 6.18.26, plus native 6.11, 6.17 and 7.2 headers. Refs #94.
Disable CONFIG_USB_ALIGN_DATA and enable CONFIG_USB_NO_TRANS_DMA_MAP
when CONFIG_ARCH_SUN60IW2P1 is set, following the upstream USB controller
workaround. Preserve the current defaults on other platforms.
Source: radxa-pkg/aic8800 commit 33f19ba,
fix-usbc1-controller-wifi-rate-of-sun60iw2p1.patch.
Validation: GNU make resolves the expected settings for both platform
branches; Linux 6.14, 6.17 and 7.2 module builds succeeded. No SUN60IW2P1
hardware was available for runtime validation.
Linux 7.1 moved action_code outside tdls_discover_resp. Reserve both
category and action_code bytes before the response body so appending an
IE does not overwrite the capability field.
Sync the USB hunk from radxa-pkg/aic8800 commit
bd01abe95bc83c4708dd1d117e27424ee41cc747.
Validation: Linux 6.14, 6.17 and 7.2 module builds succeeded. A focused
frame construction check detects the original one-byte overwrite and
passes with this change. Hardware TDLS operation remains untested.
The spec still pins 13baa9b, which predates 40379fe ("fix: support Linux
7.2 cfg80211 API"), so on Bazzite 44 (kernel 7.2) rpmbuild fails in
%build with an implicit declaration of the removed strncpy() and an
incompatible pointer type for cfg80211_ops::remain_on_channel, whose
prototype gained a trailing rx_addr argument.
Pin the current main branch instead and reset Release for the new
snapshot. Verified by building the package against kernel
7.2.0-ogc4.1.fc44.x86_64.
This adapter uses the AIC8800D80 chipset and was previously not
matched by the fdrv probe. Add vendor/product IDs so the driver
binds and both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth (via standard btusb) work.
Tested on Linux 7.1.6 with TP-Link AX900 TL-XDN7000H.
Build the existing monitor transmit path by default. Validate the radiotap header before parsing it and align the transmit prototype with netdev_tx_t.

Do not send monitor frames through the normal data path when simultaneous monitor/data support is disabled. Handle monitor skb allocation failures without dereferencing NULL or dropping the original combined-mode frame.
Fixes#83
- Disable automatic creation of debuginfo packages to fix issue #77.
- Require usb_modeswitch as package dependency instead of file dependency to fix issue #77.
Pin the Wi-Fi package to the current main code commit, ship both maintained modules and all firmware variants, and remove obsolete Bluetooth packaging.
Install mode-switch dependencies, support a69c:572f, avoid redundant generic headers when a usable kernel build tree exists, and discover DKMS logs dynamically. Addresses installer portions of #28, #55, #65, #66, and #68.
Follow-up to d66e5cb which shipped fw/aic8800{,D80N,D80X2,DLN} but
forgot to update install.sh — so users still got only aic8800D80
firmware installed and the "Pandora" mode-switch config was missing.
install_firmware:
- Loop over all fw/aic8800* variants instead of hard-coding aic8800D80
- Install usb_modeswitch/1111_1111 to /etc/usb_modeswitch.d/1111:1111
verify_installation: count installed firmware variants instead of
checking for the single aic8800D80 directory.

Device 368b:8d84 is an AIC 8800D80 variant not included in the USB
device table. Add it as AIC8800M80_CUS0 alongside the other M80 CUS
variants; it maps to PRODUCT_ID_AIC8800D81 like its siblings.
Tested on kernel 6.19.8-arch1 with a physical dongle (Bus 001 Device
005: ID 368b:8d84 AICSemi AIC 8800D80).
