Bug Description

[ Impact ]

The LicheeRV is supported by the linux-allwinner package in Jammy. The board does not have an Ethernet port but provides WiFi. We should provide the WiFi driver in Jammy too.

[ Test Plan ]

Install Ubuntu Jammy on the board. Install the licheerv-rtl8723ds-dkms package. Building will take about a power.

Check that the local WiFi can be reached. See instructions in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RISC-V/LicheeRV.

[ Where problems could occur ]

The package is new. So the SRU will not create any impact if the package is not voluntarily installed.

A kernel driver could lead to malfunctioning of the board.

Tested successfully on Jammy

Using a Jammy preinstalled Nezha image on a Lichee RV Dock board I have installed the package licheerv-rtl8723ds-dkms_1.0-0ubuntu0.1_riscv64.deb. It builds the kernel module successfully. After adding and applying netplan settings the board connects to my WLAN.
