Subject: [PATCH v3 net-next 03/12] docs: ethtool-netlink: document interface for MAC Merge layer
Show details about the structures passed back and forth related to MAC
Merge layer configuration, state and statistics. The rendered htmldocs
will be much more verbose due to the kerneldoc references.
Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@....com>
---
v2->v3:
- reformat tables
- delete obsolete netlink attributes and document new ones
v1->v2: patch is new

+
+.. kernel-doc:: include/linux/ethtool.h

+
+The ``ETHTOOL_A_MM_VERIFY_STATUS`` will report one of the values from

+If ``ETHTOOL_A_MM_VERIFY_ENABLED`` was passed as false in the ``MM_SET``

+It is recommended that drivers start with the pMAC disabled, and enable it upon

+the default values from ``ETHTOOL_MSG_MM_GET`` requests.
