Subject: rtw89 driver
Date: Thu, 3 Feb 2022 19:26:58 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA+pv=HNuxZXTxu2S5vcz=zF81wWxykQe2im6oKgKiaDPujVjiw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi there,
Quick question for wireless folks: would backporting the rtw89
driver[1] (Realtek 8852AE) to kernels older than 5.16.y be possible at
some point down the road? I ask this as, when testing a stable build
of 5.15.y a bit ago, I had an issue where the driver wasn't present
and the system I was testing it on wasn't happy and started kicking
errors. (It's fairly new, so I did kind of expect that.) I was,
however, able to solve this by manually building and installing the
drivers so it wasn't that big of a deal.

Thanks,
Slade
