[RFC PATCH 1/2] net: ethtool: Add capability to retrieve plug-inmodule EEPROM

From: Stuart Hodgson
Date: Tue Mar 27 2012 - 13:51:14 EST


Added extensions to the ethtool API to obtain plugin module eeprom data
This is useful for end users to be able to determine what the capabilities
of the in use module are.

The first provides a new struct ethtool_modinfo that will return the
type and size of plug-in module eeprom (such as SFP+) for parsing
by userland program.

The second provides the API to get the raw eeprom information
using the existing ethtool_eeprom structture to return the data
