Hi,

I'm trying to figure out which version of the Intel "ice" driver I have installed.

ethtool and modinfo only tell me I have "6.8.12-4-pve" (see below)

I need to know to what Intel version number this corresponds to (https://github.com/intel/ethernet-linux-ice)

Thanks for any help.


Code:
root@pve:~# ethtool -i enp1s0f0np0
driver: ice

bus-info: 0000:01:00.0
supports-statistics: yes
supports-test: yes
supports-eeprom-access: yes
supports-register-dump: yes
supports-priv-flags: yes

Hello Michael,

I searched for detailed information about the driver However couldn't find it.
My guess is that the lack of disclosure is likely due to specifications.
Many vendors choose not to disclose certain information for various reasons, often related to specifications. There are also security risks involved.

Hope this helps.

Respectfully.

Seiji
