Hi,
I've got an odd issue. We've got a request to use the in-tree ice
driver for the "legacy" NICs like the E810, and the out-of-tree ice
driver for the newer NICs associated with the Granite Rapids-D (E825/E830).
Is there any way to distinguish between these other than the PCI device
IDs? I'd rather not need to maintain a list of devices and need to
update them every time a new NIC variant comes out.
Thanks,
Chris
you are asking this question on the public mailing list about in-tree
drivers, here recommendation is to use in-tree driver, always
as "also OOT" developer, I would say it it sometime warranted to use
OOT, but then don't mix and either stick to all OOT or all upstream
