26## WiFi firmware blobs
27
28Be aware that the WiFi firmwares for the supported boards are not provided by
29`linux-firmware` but by a custom recipe which only packages the needed blobs
30for these boards. This is because the upstream `linux-firmware` doesn't support
31or has outdated files for the blobs we need. The recipe
32`linux-firmware-raspbian` is based on a fork of `linux-firmware` which
33includes everything we need in order to fully support the WiFi hardware. All
34machines define `MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS` accordingly.
