- DO NOT ADD FIRMWARE TO THIS DIRECTORY.
- ======================================
- This directory is only here to contain firmware images extracted from old
- device drivers which predate the common use of request_firmware().
- As we update those drivers to use request_firmware() and keep a clean
- separation between code and firmware, we put the extracted firmware
- here.
- /*(DEBLOBBED)*/
- Your commit should include an update to the WHENCE file clearly
- identifying the licence under which the firmware is available, and
- that it is redistributable. If the licence is long and involved, it's
- permitted to include it in a separate file and refer to it from the
- WHENCE file.
- And if it were possible, a changelog of the firmware itself.
- Ideally, your commit should contain a Signed-Off-By: from someone
- authoritative on the licensing of the firmware in question (i.e. from
- within the company that owns the code).
- WARNING:
- =======
- Don't send any "CONFIDENTIALITY STATEMENT" in your e-mail, patch or
- request. Otherwise your firmware _will never be accepted_.
- Maintainers are really busy, so don't expect a prompt reply.
