The community (myself included) has been frustrated that TI has dropped the ball on their existing wireless drivers: https://docs.kernel.org/process/maintainers.html#ti-wilink-wireless-drivers This kind of behaviour is not exactly building trust. So how is this driver going to be any different?
I understand the frustration. As the engineer leading the development of the CC33xx driver I can say that CC3300 and CC3301 are the first in a family whose roadmap goes beyond 2030. I can also say that Linux driver support is foundational for this line of products and TI is committed to supporting these devices in the linux-wireless community for at least 10 years. Unlike previous drivers, development and maintenance of CC33xx will be done by TI engineers and not a 3rd party. Is this acceptable?
