Hello, I wish you would consider adding a switch to ethtool (and the corresponding functionality) to produce output in machine-readable format.
This would be *extremely* useful. Why not add the "--machine-readable" switch mentioned here: http://www.hezmatt.org/~mpalmer/blog/2011/12/17/rethtool-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-ioctl.html and another page which talks about the difficulty of parsing ethtool's output: http://pjrlost.blogspot.de/2011/11/linuxunix-and-new-output-pipe-stdobj.html cheers, Robert Urban -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
