Danielle Ratson says: ==================== Fix link_mode derived params functionality Currently, link_mode parameter derives 3 other link parameters, speed, lanes and duplex, and the derived information is sent to user space. Few bugs were found in that functionality. First, some drivers clear the 'ethtool_link_ksettings' struct in their get_link_ksettings() callback and cause receiving wrong link mode information in user space. And also, some drivers can report random values in the 'link_mode' field and cause general protection fault. Second, the link parameters are only derived in netlink path so in ioctl path, we don't any reasonable values. Third, setting 'speed 10000 lanes 1' fails since the lanes parameter wasn't set for ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_10000baseR_FEC_BIT. Patch #1 solves the first two problems by removing link_mode parameter and deriving the link parameters in driver instead of ethtool. Patch #2 solves the third one, by setting the lanes parameter for the link_mode. v3: * Remove the link_mode parameter in the first patch to solve both two issues from patch#1 and patch#2. * Add the second patch to solve the third issue. v2: * Add patch #2. * Introduce 'cap_link_mode_supported' instead of adding a validity field to 'ethtool_link_ksettings' struct in patch #1. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
