Wed Jul 26 16:01:08 UTC 2023 - lduncan@suse.com
- Besides lots of bug fixes, the main visible change is the
addition of the mhvtl_kernel_mod_build script, which uses
a tarball of the modules sources in /lib/firmware/mhvtl_kernel.tgz
to build the kernel module. This adds a new script, new
firmware file, and a new man page.
