As I understand it, the hardware notes are generated automatically via certain portions of certain manual pages. It looks like that takes the form of &hwlist.<drivername>; entities in (e.g.) ^/base/head/release/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/hardware/article.xml, with the hwlist entities being generated by ^/base/head/release/doc/share/misc/man2hwnotes.pl. I don't know offhand whether mlx5en.4 is formatted properly for that script, but it seems that at a minimum, the &hwlist.mlx5en; entity needs to be added to the release notes sources. I've cc'd [email protected], since they have change control over the release notes and would need to make or approve such a change. -Ben _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-doc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
