From: Jesse Brandeburg Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2012 02:30:53 +0000 (+0000) Subject: ethtool.h: MDI setting support X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6f6bbc186dc8e4e0c628db7decbd1a5e02cb5fd8;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git ethtool.h: MDI setting support This change modifies the core ethtool struct to allow a driver to support setting of MDI/MDI-X state for twisted pair wiring. This change uses a previously reserved u8 and should not change any binary compatibility of ethtool. Also as per Ben Hutchings' suggestion, the capabilities are stored in a separate byte so the driver can report if it supports changing settings. see thread: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-netdev/2010/11/17/6289820/thread see ethtool patches titled: ethtool: allow setting MDI-X state Signed-off-by: Jesse Brandeburg CC: Ben Hutchings Tested-by: Aaron Brown aaron.f.brown@intel.com Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher --- diff --git a/include/linux/ethtool.h b/include/linux/ethtool.h index 21eff418091b..fcb4f8e60c1c 100644 --- a/include/linux/ethtool.h +++ b/include/linux/ethtool.h @@ -45,8 +45,10 @@ struct ethtool_cmd { * bits) in Mbps.
