Linux firmware ============== <http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git> git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git This repository contains all these firmware images which have been extracted from older drivers, as well various new firmware images which we were never permitted to include in a GPL'd work, but which we _have_ been permitted to redistribute under separate cover. To submit firmware to this repository, please send either a git binary diff or preferably a git pull request to: linux-firmware@kernel.org and also cc: to related mailing lists. Your commit should include an update to the WHENCE file clearly identifying the license under which the firmware is available, and that it is redistributable. Being redistributable includes ensuring the firmware license provided includes an implicit or explicit patent grant to end users to ensure full functionality of device operation with the firmware. If the license 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.
