Why did you revert to silently ignoring requests in this case? On the
other hand, we might rather want to do a more generic check which would
handle all drivers not supporting the feature, see below.

Nitpick: bool would be more appropriate as return value.

Please set also the "bad attribute" in extack, it may help
non-interactive clients.
Also, it would be nice to report error if client wants to set master/slave but
driver does not support it. How about this?
if (master_slave_cfg) {
u8 cfg = nla_get_u8(master_slave_cfg);
if (lsettings->master_slave_cfg ==
MASTER_SLAVE_CFG_UNSUPPORTED) {
NL_SET_ERR_MSG_ATTR(info->extack, master_slave_cfg,
"master/slave configuration not
supported by device");
return -EOPNOTSUPP;
}
if (!ethnl_validate_master_slave_cfg(cfg)) {
NL_SET_ERR_MSG_ATTR(info->extack, master_slave_cfg,
"master/slave value is invalid");
return -EOPNOTSUPP;
}
}
Do you plan to allow handling master/slave also via ioctl()? If yes, we should
also add the sanity checks to ioctl code path. If not, we should prevent
passing non-zero values from userspace to driver.
Other than this, the patch looks good to me.
