Dear Salvatore, thank your for your response!
I'd gladly report the issue upstream, but I'm not sure on how to approach that. I'm aware of Bugzilla [1], but so far I have no account there. And the documentation [2] says, that Bugzilla is likely not the right address anyway: > Locate the driver or kernel subsystem that seems to be causing the issue. > Find out how and where its developers expect reports. Note: most of the time > this won’t be bugzilla.kernel.org, as issues typically need to be sent by mail > to a maintainer and a public mailing list. I have very little experience when it comes to the kernel. The maintainers list [3] and the code of e100 [4] suggest different e-mail addresses, according to the e1000 Sourceforge site [5], depending on whether the e100 module would be considered "in" or "out of tree". I'm also not sure which formal rules (e.g. tags) I need to follow to get through with the matter at a big company like Intel. Can you give me some advice please?
