+Linux SOF will look up firmware files at the following paths:

+   :widths: 50 50 25
+   :header-rows: 1
+
+   * - Platform
+     - Firmware load path
+     - Notes
+   * - Raptor Lake and older
+     - /lib/firmware/intel/sof/sof-PLAT.ri
+     - PLAT = glk, cml, ..., rpl
+   * - Raptor Lake and older (community signed)
+     - /lib/firmware/intel/sof/community/sof-PLAT.ri
+     - PLAT = glk, cml, ..., rpl
+   * - Meteor Lake and newer
+     - /lib/firmware/intel/sof-ipc4/PLAT/sof-PLAT.ri
+     - PLAT = mtl, lnl, ...
+   * - Meteor Lake and newer (community signed)
+     - /lib/firmware/intel/sof-ipc4/PLAT/community/sof-PLAT.ri
+     - PLAT = mtl, lnl, ...
+   * - Meteor Lake and newer Loadable Module
+     - /lib/firmware/intel/sof-ipc4-lib/PLAT/UUID.bin
+     - PLAT as above, UUID = UUID of the module
+   * - Meteor Lake and newer Loadable Module (community signed)
+     - /lib/firmware/intel/sof-ipc4-lib/PLAT/community/UUID.bin
+     - PLAT as above, UUID = UUID of the module
+
+Important notices:
+ - The standard Linux firmware search path and order is followed. The above table covers the base "/lib/firmware" case. See https://docs.kernel.org/driver-api/firmware/fw_search_path.html for more information.
+ - The firmware folder and filename can be overridden with "fw_path" and "fw_filename" SOF kernel parameters.
+ - The loadable module library path can be overridden with "lib_path" SOF kernel parameter.

 2. Topology file
 ----------------
 
 The topology file, such as ``/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg/sof-hda-generic-2ch.tplg``, describes the processing graph and controls to
 be instantiated by the SOF driver. The topology can be regenerated and
 reconfigured with tools but requires expert knowledge of the ALSA/ASoC/topology frameworks.

+     - Notes
+   * - Raptor Lake and older
+     - /lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg/sof-CONFIG.tplg
+     - CONFIG = topology variant needed for detected hardware configuration
