Subject: ethtool version 2 released
Date: Tue, 17 Aug 2004 08:26:57 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4121F991.4000004@pobox.com> (raw)
Just released a small update to ethtool, version 2, posted at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gkernel/
Like its cousin "blktool", ethtool now has a simplified version scheme,
an ascending number.
For those unfamiliar with ethtool, it is a utility designed to configure
specific features founds on most ethernet cards.
Summary of changes (mainly the new version scheme):
* Feature: ethtool register dump raw mode
* Feature: return results of self-test back to OS via exit(2)
* Feature: add verbose register dump for pcnet32, fec_8xx
* Maintenance: update to more recent autoconf
* Maintenance: minor updates to e1000-specific module
* Bug fix: Remove silly restriction on ethernet interface naming
