* Ethernet
* Added :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_RX_TIMEOUT` to set rx timeout for native posix.
* Added support for adin2111.
* Added support for NXP S32 GMAC.
* Added support for promiscuous mode in eth_smsc91x.
* Added support for STM32H5X SOC series.
* Added support for MDIO Clause 45 APIs.
* Added support for YD-ESP32 board Ethernet.
* Fixed stm32 to generate more unique MAC address by using device id as a base for the MAC.
* Fixed mcux to increase the PTP timestamp accuracy from 20us to 200ns.
* Fixed Ethernet max header size when using VLAN.
* Removed the ``mdio`` DT property. Please use :c:macro:`DT_INST_BUS()` in the driver instead.
* Reworked the device node hierarchy in smsc91x.
* Renamed the phy-dev property with phy-handle to match the Linux ethernet-controller binding
and move it up to ethernet.yaml so that it can be used by other drivers.
* Updated Ethernet PHY to use ``reg`` property in DT bindings.
* Updated driver DT bindings to use ``ethernet-phy`` devicetree node name consistently.
* Updated esp32 and sam-gmac DT so that the phy is pointed by a phandle rather than
a child node, this makes the phy device a child of mdio.

* Increased esp32 default network (TCP workq, RX and mgmt event) stack sizes to 2048 bytes.
* Reduced the RAM usage for esp32s2_saola in Wi-Fi samples.
* Fixed undefined declarations in winc1500.
* Fixed SPI buffer length in eswifi.
* Fixed esp32 data sending and channel selection in AP mode.
* Fixed esp_at driver init and network interface dormant state setting.

cause CoAP packets to not timeout at all on this event.
* Ethernet:
* Fixed ARP queueing so that the queued network packet is sent immediately
instead of queued 2nd time in the core network stack.
* gPTP:
* Added support for detecting gPTP packets that use the default multicast destination address.
* Fixed Announce and Follow Up message handling.

* Added Passive scan support.
* The Wi-Fi scan API updated with Wi-Fi scan parameter to allow scan mode selection.
* Updated TWT handling.
* Added support for generic network manager API.

* Added user input validation for SSID and PSK in Wi-Fi shell.
* Added scan extension for specifying channels, limiting scan results, filtering SSIDs,
setting active and passive channel dwell times and frequency bands.
