[Regression Potential] * The regression potential can be considered as low since it only affects the s390x platform * and there only the qeth driver/module. * The patch itself is less complex and adds mainly lines and fields for the recognition of the new card. * The entire code needed is already included in disco and a sniff test was done based on disco's kernel 5.0. __________ Function: Provide enhanced link speed for OSA networks Business Case: Improved performance with OSA networks Available with kernel 4.20 Git-Commit: s390/qeth: report 25Gbit link speed [54e049c227] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-z-systems/+bug/1814892/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
