Subject: [RFC PATCH ethtool] ethtool: Improve compatibility between netlink and ioctl interfaces

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@...dia.com>

With the ioctl interface, when autoneg is enabled, but without
specifying speed, duplex or link modes, the advertised link modes are
set to the supported link modes by the ethtool user space utility.

This does not happen when using the netlink interface. Fix this
incompatibility problem by having ethtool query the supported link modes
from the kernel and advertise all of them when only "autoneg on" is
specified.

Before:

# ethtool -s eth0 advertise 0xC autoneg on
# ethtool -s eth0 autoneg on
# ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
	Supported ports: [ TP ]
	Supported link modes:   10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
	                        100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
	                        1000baseT/Full
	Supported pause frame use: No
	Supports auto-negotiation: Yes
	Supported FEC modes: Not reported
	Advertised link modes:  100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
	Advertised pause frame use: No
	Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes
	Advertised FEC modes: Not reported
	Speed: 1000Mb/s
	Duplex: Full
	Auto-negotiation: on
	Port: Twisted Pair
	PHYAD: 0
	Transceiver: internal
	MDI-X: off (auto)
	Supports Wake-on: umbg
	Wake-on: d
        Current message level: 0x00000007 (7)
                               drv probe link
	Link detected: yes

After:

# ethtool -s eth0 advertise 0xC autoneg on
# ethtool -s eth0 autoneg on
# ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
	Supported ports: [ TP ]
	Supported link modes:   10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
	                        100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
	                        1000baseT/Full
	Supported pause frame use: No
	Supports auto-negotiation: Yes
	Supported FEC modes: Not reported
	Advertised link modes:  10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
	                        100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
	                        1000baseT/Full
	Advertised pause frame use: No
	Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes
	Advertised FEC modes: Not reported
	Speed: 1000Mb/s
	Duplex: Full
	Auto-negotiation: on
	Port: Twisted Pair
	PHYAD: 0
	Transceiver: internal
	MDI-X: on (auto)
	Supports Wake-on: umbg
	Wake-on: d
        Current message level: 0x00000007 (7)
                               drv probe link
	Link detected: yes

Michal / Jakub, let me know if you see a better way. Sending as RFC
since I want to run it through regression first.
