The oldest being a P120, the newest the mentioned X61 with its C2D > CPU. For a driver like this, regression testing is mostly what we need, when we see patches for it. Please take a look at the MAINTAINERs file, and see if you can send us a patch adding yourself as the Maintainer of this driver. Some documents to read: https://docs.kernel.org/process/submitting-patches.html https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainer-netdev.html For patches to MAINTAINERS, please base the patch on net.
