How and why to work with the Linux kernel community
Linux driver development model, good case timeline #2
Hardware vendor releases HW documentation during HW R&D or no later than the product start shipping
Somebody in the Linux development community might be interested in writing a driver
in his spare time because of technical interest in the HW
as a paid contractor by the HW vendor
In such cases it helps if the HW vendor provides free samples to trustworthy developers
That driver is very likely to get merged mainline
