Hi Jakub, all,

I would like to ask about the preferred mechanism for drivers
to dump state information from firmware to user-space.

I recall that at least for the NFP driver this was implemented
using ethtool -w/-W. But that was some time ago and I'd like
to understand if that is still the preferred method.

Thanks to everyone who attended!

I forgot to mention one thing:

The "cc_maintainers" check in patchwork has been improved, it will
now ignore emails which we haven’t heard from in 3 years (1 year if 
the author and missing CC emails share the domain).

Excellent, IIRC this was discussed at Netconf.
Let's see how this helps.
