From: David Decotigny <decot@googlers.com>

This patch defines a new ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS/SSETTINGS API, handled by
the new get_ksettings/set_ksettings callbacks. This API provides
support for most legacy ethtool_cmd fields, adds support for larger
link mode masks (up to 4064 bits, variable length), and removes
ethtool_cmd deprecated fields (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt).

This API is deprecating the legacy ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET API and provides
the following backward compatibility properties:
 - legacy ethtool with legacy drivers: no change, still using the
   get_settings/set_settings callbacks.
 - legacy ethtool with new get/set_ksettings drivers: the new driver
   callbacks are used, data internally converted to legacy
   ethtool_cmd. ETHTOOL_GSET will return only the 1st 32b of each link
   mode mask. ETHTOOL_SSET will fail if user tries to set the
   ethtool_cmd deprecated fields to non-0
   (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt). A kernel warning is logged if
   driver sets higher bits.
 - future ethtool with legacy drivers: no change, still using the
   get_settings/set_settings callbacks, internally converted to new data
   structure. Deprecated fields (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt) will be
   ignored and seen as 0 from user space. Note that that "future"
   ethtool tool will not allow changes to these deprecated fields.
 - future ethtool with new drivers: direct call to the new callbacks.

By "future" ethtool, what is meant is:
 - query: first try ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS, and revert to ETHTOOL_GSET if fails
 - set: query first and remember which of ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS or
   ETHTOOL_GSET was successful
   - if ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS was successful, then change config with
     ETHTOOL_SSETTINGS. A failure there is final (do not try ETHTOOL_SSET).
   - otherwise ETHTOOL_GSET was successful, change config with
     ETHTOOL_SSET. A failure there is final (do not try ETHTOOL_SSETTINGS).

The interaction user/kernel via the new API requires a small
ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS handshake first to agree on the length of the link
mode bitmaps. If kernel doesn't agree with user, it returns the bitmap
length it is expecting from user as a negative length (and cmd field
is 0). When kernel and user agree, kernel returns valid info in all
fields (ie. link mode length > 0 and cmd is ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS).

Data structure crossing user/kernel boundary is 32/64-bit
agnostic. Converted internally to a legal kernel bitmap.

The internal __ethtool_get_settings kernel helper will gradually be
replaced by __ethtool_get_ksettings by the time the first ksettings
drivers start to appear. So this patch doesn't change it, it will be
removed before it needs to be changed.

I previously asked you to include 'link' in the command names and
structure name.  This would clarify that these are now only for link
settings and reduce the risk of confusion between old and new commands.
However, you didn't reply to that review.  Do you have any objection to
doing this?

Ben.

Sure, I will send an update:

struct ethtool_link_settings {
        __u32   cmd;
        __u32   speed;
        __u8    duplex;
        __u8    port;
        __u8    phy_address;
        __u8    autoneg;
        __u8    mdio_support;
        __u8    eth_tp_mdix;
        __u8    eth_tp_mdix_ctrl;
        __s8    link_mode_masks_nwords;
        __u32   reserved[8];
        __u32   link_mode_masks[0];
};

(+ same renaming for the ioctl sub-cmds)

that would still replace GSET/SSET/ethtool_cmd.

would that be ok?

Or, just to make sure: would you rather keep GSET/SSET/ethtool_cmd as
now for everything but the link mode masks (that would be marked as
deprecated), and have only a new command G/SLINK_MODES + struct
ethtool_link_mode_support that would only take care of the link mode
masks?

+ * IMPORTANT, Backward compatibility notice: When implementing new

+ *	it succeeds use %ETHTOOL_SSETTINGS to change settings; do not
+ *	use %ETHTOOL_SSET if %ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS succeeded: stick to
+ *	%ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS/%SSETTINGS in that case.  Conversely, if
+ *	%ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS fails, use %ETHTOOL_GSET to query and
+ *	%ETHTOOL_SSET to change settings; do not use
+ *	%ETHTOOL_SSETTINGS if %ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS failed: stick to
+ *	%ETHTOOL_GSET/%ETHTOOL_SSET in that case.
+ *
+ * @cmd: Command number = %ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS or %ETHTOOL_SSETTINGS
+ * @speed: Link speed (Mbps)
+ * @duplex: Duplex mode; one of %DUPLEX_*
+ * @port: Physical connector type; one of %PORT_*
+ * @phy_address: MDIO address of PHY (transceiver); 0 or 255 if not
+ *	applicable.  For clause 45 PHYs this is the PRTAD.
+ * @autoneg: Enable/disable autonegotiation and auto-detection;
+ *	either %AUTONEG_DISABLE or %AUTONEG_ENABLE
+ * @mdio_support: Bitmask of %ETH_MDIO_SUPPORTS_* flags for the MDIO
+ *	protocols supported by the interface; 0 if unknown.
+ *	Read-only.
+ * @eth_tp_mdix: Ethernet twisted-pair MDI(-X) status; one of
+ *	%ETH_TP_MDI_*.  If the status is unknown or not applicable, the
+ *	value will be %ETH_TP_MDI_INVALID.  Read-only.
+ * @eth_tp_mdix_ctrl: Ethernet twisted pair MDI(-X) control; one of
+ *	%ETH_TP_MDI_*.  If MDI(-X) control is not implemented, reads
+ *	yield %ETH_TP_MDI_INVALID and writes may be ignored or rejected.
+ *	When written successfully, the link should be renegotiated if
+ *	necessary.
+ * @link_mode_masks_nwords: Number of 32-bit words for each of the
+ *	supported, advertising, lp_advertising link mode bitmaps. For
+ *	%ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS: on entry, number of words passed by user
+ *	(>= 0); on return, if handshake in progress, negative if
+ *	request size unsupported by kernel: absolute value indicates
+ *	kernel recommended size and cmd field is 0, as well as all the
+ *	other fields; otherwise (handshake completed), strictly
+ *	positive to indicate size used by kernel and cmd field is
+ *	%ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS, all other fields populated by driver. For
+ *	%ETHTOOL_SSETTINGS: must be valid on entry, ie. a positive
+ *	value returned previously by %ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS, otherwise
+ *	refused. For drivers: ignore this field (use kernel's
+ *	__ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NBITS instead), any change to it will
+ *	be overwritten by kernel.
+ * @supported: Bitmap with each bit meaning given by
+ *	%ethtool_link_mode_bit_indices for the link modes, physical
+ *	connectors and other link features for which the interface
+ *	supports autonegotiation or auto-detection.  Read-only.
+ * @advertising: Bitmap with each bit meaning given by
+ *	%ethtool_link_mode_bit_indices for the link modes, physical
+ *	connectors and other link features that are advertised through
+ *	autonegotiation or enabled for auto-detection.
+ * @lp_advertising: Bitmap with each bit meaning given by
+ *	%ethtool_link_mode_bit_indices for the link modes, and other
+ *	link features that the link partner advertised through
+ *	autonegotiation; 0 if unknown or not applicable.  Read-only.
+ *
+ * If autonegotiation is disabled, the speed and @duplex represent the
+ * fixed link mode and are writable if the driver supports multiple
+ * link modes.  If it is enabled then they are read-only; if the link
+ * is up they represent the negotiated link mode; if the link is down,
+ * the speed is 0, %SPEED_UNKNOWN or the highest enabled speed and
+ * @duplex is %DUPLEX_UNKNOWN or the best enabled duplex mode.
+ *
+ * Some hardware interfaces may have multiple PHYs and/or physical
+ * connectors fitted or do not allow the driver to detect which are
+ * fitted.  For these interfaces @port and/or @phy_address may be
+ * writable, possibly dependent on @autoneg being %AUTONEG_DISABLE.
+ * Otherwise, attempts to write different values may be ignored or
+ * rejected.
+ *
+ * Deprecated %ethtool_cmd fields transceiver, maxtxpkt and maxrxpkt
+ * are not available in %ethtool_settings. Until all drivers are
+ * converted to ignore them or to the new %ethtool_settings API, for
+ * both queries and changes, users should always try
+ * %ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS first, and if it fails with -ENOTSUPP stick only
+ * to %ETHTOOL_GSET and %ETHTOOL_SSET consistently. If it succeeds,
+ * then users should stick to %ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS and
+ * %ETHTOOL_SSETTINGS (which would support drivers implementing either
+ * %ethtool_cmd or %ethtool_settings).
+ *
+ * Users should assume that all fields not marked read-only are
+ * writable and subject to validation by the driver.  They should use
+ * %ETHTOOL_GSETTINGS to get the current values before making specific
+ * changes and then applying them with %ETHTOOL_SSETTINGS.
+ *
+ * Drivers that implement %get_ksettings and/or %set_ksettings should
+ * ignore the @cmd and @link_mode_masks_nwords fields (any change to
+ * them overwritten by kernel), and rely only on kernel's internal
+ * %__ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NBITS and
+ * %ethtool_link_mode_mask_t. Drivers that implement %set_ksettings()
+ * should validate all fields other than @cmd
+ * and @link_mode_masks_nwords that are not described as read-only or
