...irtio_net: add ethtool support for set and get of settings However, it would be nice to be able to set this from the hypervisor, such that virtio_net doesn't require custom guest ethtool commands. Introduce a new feature flag, VIRTIO_NET_F_SPEED_DUPLEX, which allows the hypervisor to export a linkspeed and duplex setting. The user can subsequently overwrite it later if desired via: 'ethtool -s'. Signed-off-by: Jason Baron <jbaron at akamai.com> Cc: "Michael S.

In prepartion for using some of the high order feature bits, make sure that virtio-net uses 64-bit values everywhere. Signed-off-by: Jason Baron <jbaron at akamai.com> Cc: "Michael S.

Although linkspeed and duplex can be set in a linux guest via 'ethtool -s', this requires custom ethtool commands for virtio-net by default. Introduce a new feature flag, VIRTIO_NET_F_SPEED_DUPLEX, which allows the hypervisor to export a linkspeed and duplex setting. The user can subsequently overwrite it la...
