Is Ben still maintaining ethtool? I ask because I have this series which I sent out earlier this month, with no word and I know there is at least one other ethtool patch series that has had no response or committal from who ever is maintaining ethtool. I know we discussed last netconf that we should look at possibly a new tool to address the shortcomings of ethtool, but I was not aware we had abandoned maintaining the current ethtool already before any replacement tool has been developed.
