2009-03-06ethtool: Manual page correctionsBen Hutchings1-3/+3
Fix the following nits, too small to deserve separate patches: There is a separator missing between -K and --offload. The first mention of -p says the long option is --blink, but it's really --identify. The [N] following -p has the brackets in italics, not the N. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

2007-02-09ethtool: flie option to register dumpStephen Hemminger1-1/+12
Add ability to take old raw dumps from a file and decode them. It is kind of limited because you still need to have same device as the raw file, but useful for maintainers to decode raw dumps. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-09-06ethtool v5: add autoneg advertise featureJeff Kirsher1-0/+24
adds the ability to change the advertised speed and duplex for a network interface. Previously, a network interface was only able to advertise all supported speed's and duplex's, or one individual speed and duplex. The feature allows the user to choose which supported speed's and duplex's to advertise by using the hex value.
