Please add wifi driver for rtl8821ce in next release

[crw]

Hi

please add rtl8821ce support in next release

thanks

[Jon West]

I include these drivers in my builds, https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new But they do not include the rtl8821ce, only the rtl8821ae. I looked through their pull requests and it doesn't look like there has been a pull request to add that chipset. Do you happen to know of a working driver repo for that chipset? If so, it might also be worth making a pull request to lwfinger's repo with the update too. Then things could be merged into this project a bit easier.

There are 2 repo that I found : 

tomaspinho one : https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce 

and endlessm one : https://github.com/endlessm/linux/tree/master/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8821ce

I use tomaspinho one for Kernel 4.19, inegrate it into Kernel source instead of compile it as external module.

They have included rtl8821ce in rtw88 branch https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new/tree/rtw88

The rtl8821ce driver has been included in 9.0-r1 release.

Finally it has been added! It was not included in any android os (remix os,prime os,phoenix os,bliss os etc)
Many thanks

Nothing to be surprised about that.
The driver was not included in mainline kernel.
If you want to complain, talk to the vendor (Realtek)
why they didn't submit the driver to upstream.

So does it work or not?
