Agreed, and I don't like your explanation. Even if you are using firmware managed DCB, the lldp tool should be usable for querying. People need to stop putting so much crap into debugfs, it's a serious pet peeve of mine. Every piece of driver unique interface crap you put into debugfs is a _HARDSHIP_ for the user. Because they have to learn a unique way to do X in every driver that tries to export the same kind of functionality. -- 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
