I pushed this now to the pending branch of wireless-drivers-next for build testing, let's see what kind of results we get. I didn't manage to do a thorough review yet, but few quick comments: > --- a/drivers/net/wireless/Kconfig > +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/Kconfig > @@ -35,6 +35,7 @@ source "drivers/net/wireless/st/Kconfig" > source "drivers/net/wireless/ti/Kconfig" > source "drivers/net/wireless/zydas/Kconfig" > source "drivers/net/wireless/quantenna/Kconfig" > +source "drivers/net/wireless/purelifi/Kconfig" This is supposed to be in alphabetical order. > --- a/drivers/net/wireless/Makefile > +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/Makefile > @@ -20,6 +20,7 @@ obj-$(CONFIG_WLAN_VENDOR_ST) += st/ > obj-$(CONFIG_WLAN_VENDOR_TI) += ti/ > obj-$(CONFIG_WLAN_VENDOR_ZYDAS) += zydas/ > obj-$(CONFIG_WLAN_VENDOR_QUANTENNA) += quantenna/ > +obj-$(CONFIG_WLAN_VENDOR_PURELIFI) += purelifi/ And this one as well. Clearly I missed these with quantenna, but no need to redo the same mistake with purelife. Also patches welcome to fix quantenna sorting. > --- /dev/null > +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/purelifi/plfxlc/Kconfig > @@ -0,0 +1,13 @@ > +# SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only > +config PLFXLC > + > + tristate "pureLiFi X, XL, XC device support" > + depends on CFG80211 && MAC80211 && USB > + help > + This driver makes the adapter appear as a normal WLAN interface. > + > + The pureLiFi device requires external STA firmware to be loaded. > + The documentation here is not telling much. I think it goes without saying that a firmware is needed, so no need to mention it. And also "normal WLAN interface" is a standard upstream requirement so drop that as well.

Didn't you rename it to plfxlc? -- https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/list/ https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches
