Jacob Keller says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2025-10-01 (idpf, ixgbe, ixgbevf) For idpf: Milena fixes a memory leak in the idpf reset logic when the driver resets with an outstanding Tx timestamp. For ixgbe and ixgbevf: Jedrzej fixes an issue with reporting link speed on E610 VFs. Jedrzej also fixes the VF mailbox API incompatibilities caused by the confusion with API v1.4, v1.5, and v1.6. The v1.4 API introduced IPSEC offload, but this was only supported on Linux hosts. The v1.5 API introduced a new mailbox API which is necessary to resolve issues on ESX hosts. The v1.6 API introduced a new link management API for E610. Jedrzej introduces a new v1.7 API with a feature negotiation which enables properly checking if features such as IPSEC or the ESX mailbox APIs are supported. This resolves issues with compatibility on different hosts, and aligns the API across hosts instead of having Linux require custom mailbox API versions for IPSEC offload. Koichiro fixes a KASAN use-after-free bug in ixgbe_remove(). ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251009-jk-iwl-net-2025-10-01-v3-0-ef32a425b92a@intel.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
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 reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
