Totally blob free? Unfortunately not:
"We aren’t touching the modem’s ADSP firmware, because in addition to the inherent difficulties that come with it, modifying the ADSP firmware could lead to problems with RF regulations or certifications."
The ADSP firmware is the firmware that does all of the heavy lifting for physical communications.
- marcodiego 6y agoClose enough for me. I don't know how (un)reasonable it may be, but I think the "put it on a read-only chip and run on a 'secondary processor'" maneuver would be enough for fsf ryf certification[1]. The way it is now is free and open enough for me nevertheless. [1] https://puri.sm/posts/librem5-solving-the-first-fsf-ryf-hurdle/ https://puri.sm/posts/librem5-solving-the-first-fsf-ryf-hurd...
