I have created a git repository containing firmware files for use with the Linux kernel. There is a daily script¹ which extracts the contents of the firmware/ directory from the kernel itself, which is what has seeded the repository:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dwmw2/linux-firmware.git http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/dwmw2/linux-firmware.git;a=shortlog
We are also able to include other firmware files from vendors who have chosen not to contribute their firmware to be distributed as part of the GPL'd kernel source tree, but would still like their firmware to be readily available to Linux users.
Contributions of such firmware are welcome, and some are already in the works...
