9This repository contains all these firmware images which have been
10extracted from older drivers, as well various new firmware images which
11we were never permitted to include in a GPL'd work, but which we _have_
12been permitted to redistribute under separate cover.
13
14To submit firmware to this repository, please send either a git binary
15diff or preferably a git pull request to:
16 linux-firmware@kernel.org
17and also cc: to related mailing lists.

19If your commit adds new firmware, it must update the WHENCE file to
20clearly state the license under which the firmware is available, and
21that it is redistributable. Being redistributable includes ensuring
22the firmware license provided includes an implicit or explicit
23patent grant to end users to ensure full functionality of device
24operation with the firmware. If the license is long and involved, it's
25permitted to include it in a separate file and refer to it from the
26WHENCE file ('See LICENSE.foo for details.').
27And if it were possible, a changelog of the firmware itself.
28
29Run 'make check' to check that WHENCE is consistent with the
30repository contents.
31
32Ideally, your commit should contain a Signed-Off-By: from someone
33authoritative on the licensing of the firmware in question (i.e. from
34within the company that owns the code).

37WARNING:
38=======
39
40Don't send any "CONFIDENTIALITY STATEMENT" in your e-mail, patch or
41request. Otherwise your firmware _will never be accepted_.
