Yes, that's the right way to go. Currently, the kernel does not provide
a generic framework for that and I am not aware of any projects in order
to define it. Could it be something to discuss on netdev@?
So, as a workaround, some proprietary solutions get implemented in order
to get ethtool running with any DPDK PMD.

Vincent
