The hex-strings are the commit hash. You can get a copy of the source
code (git clone git://git.9front.org/plan9front/plan9front ) and check
wether any recent changes affect the driver you are interested in.

For example the last change to the Intel WiFi Link driver:

git log -1 -- sys/src/9/port/etheriwl.c
commit 11ac75e78995da394d73d3676161fb4c815cf2d4
Author: cinap_lenrek <[email protected]>
Date:   Sun Jan 5 20:16:14 2025 +0000

    devether: provide ethersetspeed() function to adjust queue sizes

    When the link-speed changes, we want to adjust not
    only the output queue limit (done by some drivers)
    but also the input queue limit per netif file.

    Now, instead of setting Ether->mbps directly,
    drivers should call ethersetspeed(ether, mbps).



Hardware support is documented for example at:
https://fqa.9front.org/fqa3.html#3.2

but I think the best thing is to try and install it and see where it
goes :)

Good luck.
