As discussed in the links below, the SDIO part of RTW8821CS fails to start correctly if such startup happens while the UART portion of the chip is initializing. The logged results with such failure is
[ 10.230516] rtw_8821cs mmc3:0001:1: Start of rtw_sdio_probe [ 10.306569] Bluetooth: HCI UART driver ver 2.3 [ 10.306717] Bluetooth: HCI UART protocol Three-wire (H5) registered [ 10.307167] of_dma_request_slave_channel: dma-names property of node '/serial@fe650000' missing or empty [ 10.307199] dw-apb-uart fe650000.serial: failed to request DMA [ 10.543474] rtw_8821cs mmc3:0001:1: Firmware version 24.8.0, H2C version 12 [ 10.730744] rtw_8821cs mmc3:0001:1: sdio read32 failed (0x11080): -110 [ 10.730923] rtw_8821cs mmc3:0001:1: sdio write32 failed (0x11080): -110
Due to the above errors, wifi fails to work.
For those instances when wifi works, the following is logged:
[ 10.452861] Bluetooth: HCI UART protocol Three-wire (H5) registered [ 10.453580] of_dma_request_slave_channel: dma-names property of node '/serial@fe650000' missing or empty [ 10.453621] dw-apb-uart fe650000.serial: failed to request DMA [ 10.455741] rtw_8821cs mmc3:0001:1: Start of rtw_sdio_probe [ 10.639186] rtw_8821cs mmc3:0001:1: Firmware version 24.8.0, H2C version 12
In this case, SDIO wifi works correctly. The correct case is ensured by adding an mdelay(500) statement before the call to rtw_core_init(). No adverse effects are observed.
