Please is there a list where I can see all > the staging drivers that is about to be removed? Thanks Gilbert Hi, all wlan drivers that use "wireless extension" interface are planned to be removed or converted to mac80211. You can find them by looking for iw_handler Simple way to find them is using: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/A/ident/iw_handler Finally you are very unlucky. That a driver gets removed before you get your patches accepted is very unlikely. You can work on any of the others. Feel free to ask me in case of questions. If you send in patches for rtl8712 I can test on hardware for you. Bye Philipp
