Implement FEATURES_SET netlink request to set network device features. These are traditionally set using ETHTOOL_SFEATURES ioctl request. Actual change is subject to netdev_change_features() sanity checks so that it can differ from what was requested. Unlike with most other SET requests, in addition to error code and optional extack, kernel provides an optional reply message (ETHTOOL_MSG_FEATURES_SET_REPLY) in the same format but with different semantics: information about difference between user request and actual result and difference between old and new state of dev->features. This reply message can be suppressed by setting ETHTOOL_FLAG_OMIT_REPLY flag in request header. Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
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.
