+ s/Nm iwmfw/Xr iwmfw 4/
+ adjust HARDWARE to proposed display block convention

I'd like to make it consistent if possible. The patch on github switches from Bl to Bd so that the extra spaces used for alignment will render.

Okay, thanks Graham! That sounds good. Next push will revert proposed example prompts.

(Sorry, I forgot to click "submit" when I looked at this a few days ago.

Correct my backwards forward slash, thank you for your patience.

a21def4d568fd was the commit removing this driver. AFAICT it did not actually get listed in the release notes.

mention 802.11a, and convert example to cidr notation! Thank you so much, many people in the community have wanted this for a long time. I'll do the rest of them in one review.

192.0.2.20/24 (and we can ditch the netmask line). 192.0.2.0 is the network address.

I wonder if we want to add a note forward to iwlwifi(4). @emaste I seem to remember you having a review open to switch defaults. Do we want to leave a note here at least that all these devices are equally supported by iwlwifi(4)?

That's what I was thinking of it as, thanks!

I'm not sure there is any established procedure for editing old release documents, but as far as I'm concerned: Go for it. I consider "we forgot to remove this from the release docs when the driver was removed" to be in the same category as "fixing typos" -- we're not trying to rewrite history, just correcting an accidental and harmless error.

malo has had a hardware section since malo appeared in 3c7e78d32 for FreeBSD 7.1

Where's the change for malo(4)?

Adding #relenng to reviewers as I have no idea about procedures for touching old release notes.

I was auditing the list after discovering that an(4) was already removed prior to FreeBSD 14 and discovered that malo(4) already has a hardware section, so add it in.

improve introduction

+ fix typo, reflow description, use iv4 documentation address for example

+ description: move 'for more info' to section bottom
+ examples: use the ip4 address reserved for documentation, test-net-1

Thanks!

Sounds good! I moved the other piece to here. In the future I will make all patches in this series on phabricator. Thanks!

Who's going to commit it? Should I just? I am also not sure who's committing the gh stuff.

Lemme finish getting some more changes cleaned up and landed first. I have the MFP ioctl stuff to get into the wpa driver and GCMP to land in net80211 - enough so people can at least use it and make sure it isn't broken.

BTW, we should update wpa_supplicant210 and wpa_supplicant-devel too.

We should probably submit a pull request to our upstream too. Do you want to do it or should I?
