Subject: [dpdk-dev] KNI: Need for KNI-Ethtool support
Date: Sat, 28 May 2016 01:11:10 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <D36E3E3A.24278%harish.patil@qlogic.com> (raw)
Hello,
Could you please let me know what is the use case for having ethtool
support over KNI interfaces? Is it expected to be implemented by poll mode
drivers? PMD APIs pretty much covers all the configuration/status
retrieval needed from the nic, so not sure what is the the benefit of
providing of ethtool support over KNI.
Besides that there is DPDK/ethtool-app which is similar to Ethtool.
Please let know.
Thanks,
Harish
