From 428c122f5f6b54f40bd51c47495104b534b5a57c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michal Kubecek Date: Wed, 11 Dec 2019 10:58:34 +0100 Subject: ethtool: provide link mode names as a string set Unlike e.g. netdev features, the ethtool ioctl interface requires link mode table to be in sync between kernel and userspace for userspace to be able to display and set all link modes supported by kernel. The way arbitrary length bitsets are implemented in netlink interface, this will be no longer needed. To allow userspace to access all link modes running kernel supports, add table of ethernet link mode names and make it available as a string set to userspace GET_STRSET requests. Add build time check to make sure names are defined for all modes declared in enum ethtool_link_mode_bit_indices. Once the string set is available, make it also accessible via ioctl.
