2026-04-23net: remove ax25 and amateur radio (hamradio) subsystemJakub Kicinski
Remove the amateur radio (AX.25, NET/ROM, ROSE) protocol implementation and all associated hamradio device drivers from the kernel tree. This set of protocols has long been a huge bug/syzbot magnet, and since nobody stepped up to help us deal with the influx of the AI-generated bug reports we need to move it out of tree to protect our sanity. The code is moved to an out-of-tree repo: https://github.com/linux-netdev/mod-orphan if it's cleaned up and reworked there we can accept it back. Minimal stub headers are kept for include/net/ax25.h (AX25_P_IP, AX25_ADDR_LEN, ax25_address) and include/net/rose.h (ROSE_ADDR_LEN) so that the conditional integration code in arp.c and tun.c continues to compile and work when the out-of-tree modules are loaded.

2023-09-18Documentation: netdev: fix dead link in ax25.rstPeter Lafreniere
http://linux-ax25.org has been down for nearly a year. Its official replacement is https://linux-ax25.in-berlin.de. Update the documentation to point there instead. And acknowledge that while the linux-hams list isn't entirely dead, it isn't what most would call 'active'. Remove that word.
