Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 1GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-10-17 This series adds support for the new igc driver. The igc driver is the new client driver supporting the Intel I225 Ethernet Controller, which supports 2.5GbE speeds. The reason for creating a new client driver, instead of adding support for the new device in e1000e, is that the silicon behaves more like devices supported in igb driver. It also did not make sense to add a client part, to the igb driver which supports only 1GbE server parts. This initial set of patches is designed for basic support (i.e. link and pass traffic). Follow-on patch series will add more advanced support like VLAN, Wake-on-LAN, etc.. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
