linux-ps5 currently ships no wifi driver — the PS5 onboard wifi is NXP IW620 (not the upstream mwifiex), which lives at ps5-linux/ps5-linux- mwifiex as an out-of-tree patch against nxp-imx/mwifiex. Users have to clone that repo + run install.sh on the target, which needs gcc + kernel headers and is a manual step every kernel bump. Build it in the kernel-builder container right after the kernel: clone both repos, apply ps5-iw620.patch, make against the kernel src tree, install mlan.ko+moal.ko into /out/staging/lib/modules/$KVER/extra/ ps5-iw620/ with the NXP modprobe options + autoload conf. depmod -b refreshes the index. All package formats (.deb/.rpm/.pkg.tar.zst) then include the driver automatically. MWIFIEX_REPO / MWIFIEX_REF overridable via env in case downstream wants to test a fork or specific commit.
