Bug#1101838: RFP: firmware-hexagon-dsp-nonfree -- Firmware for DSPs present on the devices using Qualcomm SoCs



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: dmitry.baryshkov@oss.qualcomm.com

* Package name    : firmware-hexagon-dsp-nonfree
  Version         : 20250311
  Upstream Contact: dmitry.baryshkov@oss.qualcomm.com
* URL             : https://github.com/linux-msm/hexagon-dsp-binaries/
* License         : 
* Description     : Firmware for DSPs present on the devices using Qualcomm SoCs

The firmware supports support sensors and FastRPC on any of the
RB1/2/3/5 platforms or on RIDE devkits

Upstream noted:

> It provides DSP libraries and fastrpc shell binary for the DSPs for
> several reference boards under the licence which allows further
> redistribution (basically the same licence as the one used for Qualcomm
> firmware in linux-firmware). Currently the package doesn't provide any
> sensors-related data files
> 
> Please note, for the technical reasons the libaries / shell must match
