+ * struct ethtool_coalesce - coalescing parameters for IRQs and stats updates
+ * @cmd: ETHTOOL_{G,S}COALESCE
+ * @rx_coalesce_usecs: How many usecs to delay an RX interrupt after
+ * a packet arrives.
+ * @rx_max_coalesced_frames: Maximum number of packets to receive
+ * before an RX interrupt.
+ * @rx_coalesce_usecs_irq: Same as @rx_coalesce_usecs, except that
+ * this value applies while an IRQ is being serviced by the host.
+ * @rx_max_coalesced_frames_irq: Same as @rx_max_coalesced_frames,
+ * except that this value applies while an IRQ is being serviced
+ * by the host.
+ * @tx_coalesce_usecs: How many usecs to delay a TX interrupt after
+ * a packet is sent.
+ * @tx_max_coalesced_frames: Maximum number of packets to be sent
+ * before a TX interrupt.
+ * @tx_coalesce_usecs_irq: Same as @tx_coalesce_usecs, except that
+ * this value applies while an IRQ is being serviced by the host.
+ * @tx_max_coalesced_frames_irq: Same as @tx_max_coalesced_frames,
+ * except that this value applies while an IRQ is being serviced
+ * by the host.
+ * @stats_block_coalesce_usecs: How many usecs to delay in-memory
+ * statistics block updates. Some drivers do not have an
+ * in-memory statistic block, and in such cases this value is
+ * ignored. This value must not be zero.
+ * @use_adaptive_rx_coalesce: Enable adaptive RX coalescing.
+ * @use_adaptive_tx_coalesce: Enable adaptive TX coalescing.
+ * @pkt_rate_low: Threshold for low packet rate (packets per second).
+ * @rx_coalesce_usecs_low: How many usecs to delay an RX interrupt after
+ * a packet arrives, when the packet rate is below @pkt_rate_low.
+ * @rx_max_coalesced_frames_low: Maximum number of packets to be received
+ * before an RX interrupt, when the packet rate is below @pkt_rate_low.
+ * @tx_coalesce_usecs_low: How many usecs to delay a TX interrupt after
+ * a packet is sent, when the packet rate is below @pkt_rate_low.
+ * @tx_max_coalesced_frames_low: Maximum nuumber of packets to be sent before
+ * a TX interrupt, when the packet rate is below @pkt_rate_low.
+ * @pkt_rate_high: Threshold for high packet rate (packets per second).
+ * @rx_coalesce_usecs_high: How many usecs to delay an RX interrupt after
+ * a packet arrives, when the packet rate is above @pkt_rate_high.
+ * @rx_max_coalesced_frames_high: Maximum number of packets to be received
+ * before an RX interrupt, when the packet rate is above @pkt_rate_high.
+ * @tx_coalesce_usecs_high: How many usecs to delay a TX interrupt after
+ * a packet is sent, when the packet rate is above @pkt_rate_high.
+ * @tx_max_coalesced_frames_high: Maximum number of packets to be sent before
+ * a TX interrupt, when the packet rate is above @pkt_rate_high.
+ * @rate_sample_interval: How often to do adaptive coalescing packet rate
+ * sampling, measured in seconds. Must not be zero.
+ *
+ * Each pair of (usecs, max_frames) fields specifies this exit
+ * condition for interrupt coalescing:
+ * (usecs > 0 && time_since_first_completion >= usecs) ||
+ * (max_frames > 0 && completed_frames >= max_frames)
+ * It is illegal to set both usecs and max_frames to zero as this
+ * would cause interrupts to never be generated. To disable
+ * coalescing, set usecs = 0 and max_frames = 1.
+ *
+ * Some implementations ignore the value of max_frames and use the
+ * condition:
+ * time_since_first_completion >= usecs
+ * This is deprecated. Drivers for hardware that does not support
+ * counting completions should validate that max_frames == !rx_usecs.
+ *
+ * Adaptive RX/TX coalescing is an algorithm implemented by some
+ * drivers to improve latency under low packet rates and improve
+ * throughput under high packet rates. Some drivers only implement
+ * one of RX or TX adaptive coalescing. Anything not implemented by
+ * the driver causes these values to be silently ignored.
+ *
+ * When the packet rate is below @pkt_rate_high but above
+ * @pkt_rate_low (both measured in packets per second) the
+ * normal {rx,tx}_* coalescing parameters are used.
