From e035587305011432ee07f69f9738b3c7ef7f3684 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Hutchings Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2010 09:10:03 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ethtool: Complete kernel-doc comments for RX flow filter and hash control There are now several interfaces within the ethtool API for getting and setting RX flow filtering and hashing behaviour, most of which are poorly documented. This adds kernel-doc comments for all these interfaces, based on the existing incomplete comments and on the initial implementations. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: David S.
