Subject: [GSoC 2026] Graduation of rtl8723bs from staging
Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2026 01:43:48 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <DHFWW14E4F08.WVUW4ELG1CZC@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi Greg,

I'm proposing a cleanup of the driver rtl8723bs to remove the HAL
layers, dead code and to systematically fix style issues from within the
driver. I believe this would be a "Large" GSoC project.

This would be helpful to the maintainers/reviewers because lots of
traffic comes in fixing minor issues with this driver, so if this driver
cleaned up it definitely slow down the firehose of patches submitted.

If you approve of this proposal I get into much more detail in my actual
PDF. Excited to hear your thoughts.

Thanks,

ET
